I have the microwave that also has a convection. The model number is KOCE500ESS20. If I use the convection, do I take out the microwave turntable (seen in photo) or leave it in? Thank you.

When using the convection feature on the KitchenAid KOCE500ESS microwave, it is recommended to leave the microwave turntable in place. The convection cooking uses the convection element, the broil element, and the fan to circulate hot air throughout the oven cavity. The constantly moving air surrounds the food to heat the outer portion quickly. To ensure proper convection cooking, always use the convection grid placed on the turntable or baking tray. Do not cover the turntable or convection grid with aluminum foil, and avoid using light plastic containers, plastic wrap, or paper products. You can use convection cooking for items such as souffles, breads, cookies, angel food cakes, pizza, and most meats and fish. Remember to preheat the oven before placing the food inside.

My microwave doesn't make popcorn, I type "popcorn" and the time is not enough, even though I have set it for 4 minutes and it only pops half of a mini bag. To heat a cup of water, it takes 2:30 minutes. Also, when baking cookies in the oven, which should take 16 minutes, I have to give it more than 30 minutes. I think I don't know how to use it, it's new. When I'm baking, the fan at the back keeps spinning, I don't know if it's normal.

I have kitchenaid built in oven unit that has microwave on top and wall oven with convection option on bottom. Installed in August 2020. How long will the oven hold heat after being turned off. Several recipes require it to slowly cool to new temp or cool over hours to room temperature, but it sounds like a fan switches on as soon as i turn the oven off or lower the temperature.

The manual for the KitchenAid KOCE500ESS microwave does not provide specific information about how long the oven will retain heat after being turned off. However, it is common for ovens to retain heat for a period of time after being turned off. The duration of heat retention can vary depending on factors such as the insulation of the oven and the temperature at which it was set. It is recommended to allow the oven to cool down gradually by leaving the door closed after turning it off. This will help the oven retain heat for a longer period of time. Please note that the fan turning on after turning off or lowering the temperature of the oven is a normal operation to help cool down the oven faster.

The KitchenAid KOCE500ESS microwave oven has sounds that can be heard to indicate different events. If you are unable to hear the beep, there may be a few possible reasons. First, ensure that the volume of the tones is not set to a low level. You can adjust the volume by pressing the "TOOLS" button and then pressing "4" to switch between high and low settings. Second, check if all tones have been disabled. You can enable or disable them by pressing the "CLOCK/TOOLS" button and then pressing "3" to switch the tones between on and off settings. If the issue continues, it is recommended to contact customer service for further assistance.
