Your safety is important to us.  
hazards such as fire,  
electrical shock, or  
other injuries.  
This guide contains safety symbols and  
statements. Please pay special attention to  
these symbols and follow any instructions  
given. Here is a brief explanation of the use  
of the symbol.  
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical  
shock, injury to persons, or damage  
when using the range, follow basic  
precautions, including the following:  
wWARNING  
General  
Do not use the range for warming  
or heating the room. Persons could  
Read all instructions before using  
the range.  
be burned or injured, or a fire could  
start.  
Use the range only for its intended  
use as described in this manual.  
Install or locate the range only  
in accordance with the provided  
Installation Instructions. The  
range must be installed by a  
qualified installer. The range must  
be properly connected to electri-  
cal supply and grounded.  
Do not touch surface units, areas  
near units, heating elements, or  
interior surfaces of oven. Surface  
units and heating elements may  
be hot even though they are dark  
in color. Areas near surface units  
and interior surfaces of an oven be-  
come hot enough to cause burns.  
During and after use, do not touch,  
or let clothing or other flammable  
materials contact surface units,  
areas near units, heating elements,  
or interior surfaces of oven until  
they have had sufficient time to  
cool. Other surfaces of the range,  
such as the oven vent opening, the  
surface near the vent opening, the  
cooktop, and the oven door and  
window, could also become hot  
enough to cause burns.  
WARNING: To reduce the risk  
of tipping the appliance, the  
appliance must be secured by a  
properly installed anti-tip bracket.  
To check if the bracket is installed  
properly, see “The anti-tip bracket”  
on page 8.  
CAUTION: Do not store things  
children might want above the  
range. Children could be burned  
or injured while climbing on it.  
Do not leave children alone or  
unattended in area where the  
range is in use. They should  
never be allowed to sit or stand  
on any part of the range. They  
could be burned or injured.

Range Safety  
Do not operate the range if it is  
When using the cooktop  
damaged or not working properly.  
Do not cook on a broken ceramic  
glass cooktop. If cooktop should  
break, cleaning solutions and  
spillovers could penetrate the  
broken cooktop and create a risk  
of electrical shock. Contact a  
qualified technician immediately.  
Select a pan with a flat bottom  
that is about the same size as the  
surface unit. If pan is smaller than  
the surface unit, some of the  
heating element will be exposed  
and could result in the igniting of  
clothing or pot holders. Correct  
pan size also improves cooking  
efficiency.  
Check to be sure glass cookware  
is safe for use on the range. Only  
certain types of glass, glass-  
ceramic, ceramic, earthenware,  
or other glazed cookware are  
suitable for cooktops without  
breaking due to the sudden  
change in temperature.  
Never leave surface units un-  
attended at high heat settings.  
A boilover could result and cause  
smoking and greasy spillovers  
that could ignite.  
Do not wear loose or hanging  
garments when using the range.  
They could ignite if they touch a  
hot surface unit and you could  
be burned.  
Use only dry pot holders. Moist or  
damp pot holders on hot surfaces  
could result in burns from steam.  
Do not let pot holder touch hot  
heating elements. Do not use a  
towel or bulky cloth for a pot  
holder. It could catch on fire.  
Keep range vents unobstructed.  
Do not heat unopened containers.  
They could explode. The hot  
contents could cause burns and  
container particles could cause  
injury.  
Use only cookware approved for  
oven use. Follow cookware manu-  
facturer’s instructions, especially  
when using glass or plastic  
cookware.  
Do not store flammable materials  
on or near the range. The fumes  
could create an explosion and/or  
fire hazard.  
Do not repair or replace any part  
of the range unless specifically  
recommended in this manual. All  
other servicing should be referred  
to a qualified technician.  
Disconnect the electrical supply  
before servicing the range.  
Turn pan handles inward, but not  
over other surface units. This will  
help reduce the chance of burns,  
igniting of flammable materials,  
and spills due to bumping of  
the pan.

Grease is flammable. Do not  
allow grease to collect around  
cooktop or in vents. Wipe spill-  
overs immediately.  
Small amounts of formaldehyde  
and carbon monoxide are given  
off in the Self-Cleaning cycle from  
fiberglass insulation and food  
decomposition. Significant expo-  
sure to these substances could  
cause cancer or reproductive  
harm. Exposure can be minimized  
by venting with a hood or open  
window and wiping out excess  
food spills prior to self-cleaning.  
Do not use water on grease fires.  
Never pick up a flaming pan.  
Smother flaming pan on range  
by covering with a well-fitting lid,  
cookie sheet, or flat tray. Flaming  
grease outside of pan can be  
extinguished with baking soda  
or, if available, a multipurpose  
dry chemical or foam-type  
Do not use oven cleaners. No  
commercial oven cleaner or oven  
liner protective coating of any kind  
should be used in or around any  
part of the oven.  
Before self-cleaning the oven,  
remove broiler pan, broiler grid,  
oven racks, and other cookware.  
Do not use your oven to clean  
miscellaneous parts unless you  
are instructed to do so in this Use  
and Care Guide.  
extinguisher.  
Clean ceramic glass cooktop  
with care. Some cleaners could  
produce noxious fumes if applied  
to a hot surface. If a wet paper  
towel is used to wipe spills on a  
hot cooking area, be careful to  
avoid steam burns.  
When using the oven  
Do not clean door gasket. It is  
essential for a good seal. Care  
should be taken not to rub, dam-  
age, or move the gasket. Clean  
only parts recommended in this  
Use and Care Guide.

Using and Caring for Your Cooktop  
Using the dual-size surface unit

only)  
Standard Dual element Hot surface  
elements (some models) indicator  
lights  
To use the small element  
(for smaller pans):  
Cooking on the ceramic glass cooktop is  
almost the same as cooking on coil surface  
units. There are, however, a few differences:  
The cooking surface area will glow red  
when the element is turned on. You will  
see the element cycling on and off – even  
on the HI setting – to help the area stay at  
the temperature setting you choose.  
Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans  
are clean and dry before cooking. Food  
and water particles left on the bottoms can  
leave deposits on the cooktop when it is  
heated.  
Wiping off the cooktop before and after  
each use will help keep the surface free  
from stains and give you the most even  
heating. See pages 12 and 13 for care  
and cleaning suggestions.  
Push in and turn the control knob to the  
left (counterclockwise) to the desired  
setting in the area marked “SINGLE.”  
To use both elements  
(for larger pans):  
Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop.  
Lift pots and pans onto and off of the  
cooktop. Sliding pots and pans on the  
cooktop could leave marks that are difficult  
to remove or could leave permanent marks.  
Push in and turn the control knob to the  
right (clockwise) to the desired setting in  
the area marked “DUAL.”  
Do not cook popcorn that comes in  
prepackaged aluminum containers on the  
cooktop. The container could leave alumi-  
num marks on the cooktop that cannot be  
removed completely.  
NOTE: You can turn the control knob in  
either direction to reach “OFF.”  
Model KERH507: The surface units on the  
right side of the cooktop feature halogen  
elements. These elements light up as soon  
as you turn them on, and are brighter than  
conventional coil elements.

Using and Caring for Your Cooktop  
Do not use the cooktop as a cutting  
Dropping a heavy or hard object on the  
cooktop could crack it. Be careful when  
using heavy skillets and large pots. Do  
not store jars or cans above the cooktop.  
Sugary spills and soils can cause pitting.  
See pages 12 and 13 for more information.  
board.  
Do not allow anything that could melt,  
such as plastic or aluminum foil, to come  
in contact with the cooktop while it is hot.  
Cookware tips  
Handles should be made of sturdy, heat-  
resistant material and be securely attached  
to the pan.  
Select a pan that is about the same size  
as the surface unit.  
With your hand, feel the bottom of your  
pans while they are cool for nicks and  
scratches. Nicks and scratches on pan  
bottoms will scratch the ceramic glass  
cooktop.  
Avoid spillovers on cooktop. Use pans  
with tall sides.  
NOTE: Do not leave empty cookware, or  
cookware which has boiled dry, on a hot  
surface unit. The cookware could overheat  
and damage the cookware or surface unit.  
NOTE: For best results and greater  
energy efficiency, use only flat-bottomed  
cookware that makes good contact with  
the surface units. Cookware with rounded,  
warped, ribbed (such as some porcelain  
enamelware), or dented bottoms could  
cause uneven heating and poor cooking  
results.  
You can, however, use the newer  
cookware available with slightly indented  
bottoms or very small expansion channels.  
This cookware is specially designed to  
provide the good contact needed for best  
cooking results.  
Home canning information  
Pan  
Center over  
surface unit  
Surface  
unit  
Use the largest surface unit for best  
results. Also, use a canner/pan which  
can be centered over the surface unit.  
Start with hot water. This reduces the  
time the control is set on high. Reduce  
heat setting to lowest position needed  
to keep water boiling.  
Also, woks, canners, and teakettles  
with flat bottoms suitable for use on your  
cooktop are now available in most stores  
that sell housewares.  
Refer to your canner manual for specific  
instructions.  
The pan should have straight sides and  
a tight-fitting lid.  
Choose medium to heavy gauge (thick-  
ness) pans that are fairly lightweight.  
The pan material (metal or glass) affects  
how fast heat transfers from the surface  
unit through the pan material and how  
evenly heat spreads over the pan bottom.  
Choose pans that provide the best cooking  
results.

Using and Caring for Your Cooktop  
Caring for your cooktop  
This cooktop is designed for easy care.  
However, ceramic glass cooktops need  
to be maintained differently than standard  
electric coil elements. Foods spilled directly  
on the cooktop will not burn off as on coil  
elements. Because of this, the surface  
should be dust-free and soil-free before  
heating.  
To avoid damaging the cooktop, follow  
these instructions:  
Remove sugar spills and soils from the  
cooktop while the surface is still warm to  
avoid pitting on the surface.  
Marks from sliding metal pans on the  
cooktop are difficult to remove completely.  
Use cooktop polishing creme to clean  
the area. Several applications may be  
necessary.  
Do not use steel wool, plastic cleaning  
pads, abrasive powdered cleansers,  
chlorine bleach, rust remover, ammonia,  
or glass cleaning products with ammonia.  
These products could damage the cooktop  
surface.

IF THERE ARE  
WHAT TO DO  
Sugary spills  
and soils (such  
as jellies and  
candy syrups)  
To prevent pitting on  
the cooktop, wipe up  
with a paper towel or  
clean, damp sponge  
while ceramic glass  
surface is still warm.  
Remove as soon as  
possible after spill  
occurs.  
Dark streaks,  
specks, and  
discoloration  
Use Cooktop  
Polishing Creme or  
nonabrasive cleanser  
with a damp paper  
towel or sponge.  
Steps to follow:  
1. Most spills (except sugary spills and  
soils – see chart on this page) can be  
wiped off easily using a paper towel or  
clean, damp sponge as soon as Hot  
Surface Indicator Light(s) goes off.  
Use Cooktop Polishing  
Creme or nonabrasive  
cleanser with a damp  
paper towel or sponge  
before heating the  
cooktop again. If  
heated before clean-  
ing, metal marks may  
not come off.  
Metal marks  
(from copper or  
aluminum pans)  
2. For stubborn spills, rub Cooktop Polish-  
ing Creme into cooked-on soil using a  
paper towel. If some soil remains, leave  
some creme on the spot(s) and follow  
Step 3.  
3. Carefully scrape spots with a single-  
edge razor blade in a holder.

Adjusting oven temperature  
Although your new oven is properly adjusted  
to provide accurate temperatures, it may  
cook faster or slower than your old oven.  
If, after using the oven for a period of time,  
you are not satisfied with the baking/roasting  
results, you can change the offset

Using the temperature probe  
The Temperature Probe is the most accurate  
guide to the degree of doneness of meat.  
Use it when baking, roasting any type of  
meat or poultry, or cooking casseroles  
with liquid.  
1. Insert probe into food.  
Insert the probe into the center of the  
thickest portion of meat or into the inner  
thigh or breast of poultry, away from fat  
or bone.  
2. Put food in oven.  
Place meat on the convection roasting  
rack, place rack on broiler pan, and place  
pan in the center of the oven.  
3. Connect probe to oven.  
Open the Temperature Probe cover  
located on the left side of the oven wall.  
Insert plug into jack. (Keep the top of  
the probe as far as possible from the  
heat source.)  
4. Close oven door.

Variable temperature broiling  
If food is cooking too fast or you want the  
food to broil slower from the start, set the  
broil temperature between 170°F and  
325°F (77°C and 163°C). These tempera-  
ture settings allow the broil heating  
element to cycle and to slow cooking.  
The lower the temperature, the slower  
the cooking.  
Fish and chicken are some foods that  
may cook better if you use lower broiling  
temperatures. (See the “Thermal broiling  
chart” on page 33 for temperature  
recommendations.)

Convection broiling  
Convection broiling is actually high-tempera-  
ture convection roasting. Use this setting  
when broiling thick cuts of meat. Results are  
similar to those you get when using a  
rotisserie.  
1. Position rack.  
See “Thermal broiling chart” on page 33  
for recommended rack positions.  
2. Put food in oven.  
Place food on grid in broiler pan and  
place in center of the oven rack. Turn  
the pan so the long side is parallel to  
the oven door for the most even heat  
and the best airflow.

Timed cooking  
The electronic clock/oven control will turn  
the oven on and off at times you set, even  
when you are not around.  
wWARNING  
Food Poisoning Hazard  
Delayed time cooking is ideal for foods  
which do not require a preheated oven, such  
as meats and casseroles. Do not use  
delayed time cooking for cakes, cookies,  
etc. – they will not rise properly. Before  
using timed cooking, make sure the  
clock is set to the correct time of day.  
(See “Setting the clock” on page 18.)  
Do not let food sit in oven more than  
one hour before or after cooking.  
Doing so can result in death,  
food poisoning, or sickness.  
To start baking/roasting now and  
stop automatically:  
1. Prepare oven.  
Position the oven rack(s) properly and  
place the food in the oven. For correct  
rack placement, see “Rack positions”  
on page 41 and “Rack placement”

Cooking tips  
Baking tips  
For proper cooking, follow these  
guidelines:  
The hot air must circulate around the pans in  
the oven for even heat to reach all parts of  
the oven. This results in better baking.  
When using one rack, place the rack so  
the top of the food will be centered in the  
oven.  
When using two racks, place one rack in  
position 1 and the other rack in position 3.  
For best air circulation:  
Place the pans so that one is not directly  
over the other.  
Use only one cookie sheet in the oven at  
a time when using the Bake setting.  
Bakeware tips  
For best results, allow 112 to 2 inches of  
space around each pan and between pans  
and oven walls.  
When baking with one pan, place pan in  
the center of the oven rack.  
When baking with insulated cookie  
sheets or baking pans, place them in the  
bottom third of the oven. You may need to  
increase the recommended baking times,  
so test for doneness before removing from  
the oven.  
When using ovenproof glassware or  
dark bakeware, reduce the oven tempera-  
ture by 25°F, but use the same baking  
time. Because these pans absorb heat,  
producing darker bottom browning and  
crispier crusts, place the rack in the center  
of the oven. When baking pies and bread,  
you can use the temperature suggested in  
the recipe.  
When baking with two pans, place pans  
in opposite corners of the oven rack.  
NOTE: “Oven peeking” may cause heat  
loss, longer cooking times, and unsatisfac-  
tory baking or roasting results. Rely on  
your timer.

previous column.)

Your oven has two straight racks and five  
rack positions. Rack position 5 is the highest  
position, or farthest from the bottom of the  
oven. Rack position 1 is the lowest position,  
or closest to the bottom of the oven.

U
sing and Caring for Your Oven  
When baking on two or three racks, use  
the Convection Bake setting for more even  
results. (You can, however, use only one  
rack when Convection Baking.)  
Using aluminum foil in the oven  
(For thermal baking)  
Use aluminum foil to catch spillovers from  
pies or casseroles.  
Place the foil on the oven rack below the  
rack with the food. Turn foil edges up and  
make sure foil is about 1 inch larger all  
around than the dish holding the food.  
Do not cover the entire rack with alumi-  
num foil. It will reduce air circulation and  
cause poor cooking results.  
Do not line oven bottom or entire oven  
rack with foil or other liners. It could affect  
the quality of your baking.  
To use three racks during convection  
baking, place racks in position 5 (the  
highest position), 3 and 1 (the closest to  
the oven bottom). This allows all three  
racks to be an equal distance apart for  
better baking.  
Stagger cake pans or other cookware in  
opposite directions on each rack when  
three racks are used.  
Roasting tips  
Convection baking tips  
Roast meats fat-side up in a shallow pan  
(convection bake pad)  
using a roasting rack.  
Do not use aluminum foil when convection  
baking. Aluminum foil may block airflow.  
Use a roasting pan that fits the size of  
the food to be roasted. Meat juices may  
overflow the sides of a pan that is too  
small. Too large of a pan will result in  
increased oven spatter.  
Spatter can be reduced by lining the  
bottom of the roasting pan with lightly  
crushed aluminum foil.  
Reduce recommended recipe oven  
temperature by approximately 25°F. See  
recipe adaption chart in your convection  
oven cookbook for recommended  
temperatures.  
For most recipes, you can reduce con-  
vection baking time compared to standard  
baking times. See convection baking chart  
in your convection oven cookbook for  
recommended baking times.  
NOTE: Cooking time may be longer when  
you use more than one rack.  
A foil tent will slow down surface browning  
for long-term roasting, as when roasting a  
turkey. Place tent-shaped foil loosely over  
meat to allow for air circulation. Do not seal  
foil or meat will be steamed.

determine when meat has reached desired  
degree of doneness. Insert the thermom-  
eter or probe into the center of the thickest  
portion of the meat or inner thigh or breast  
of poultry. For an accurate reading, the tip  
of the thermometer or probe should not  
touch fat, bone, or gristle.  
when using the Convection Roast setting.  
See convection roasting chart in your  
convection oven cookbook for recom-  
mended roasting times and temperatures.  
After reading the thermometer once,  
push it further into the meat 12 inch or  
more and read again. If the temperature  
drops, return the meat to the oven for  
more cooking.  
Check pork and poultry with a thermom-  
eter in 2-3 places to ensure adequate  
doneness.  
Poultry and roasts will be easier to  
carve if loosely covered with foil and  
allowed to stand 10-15 minutes after  
removal from the oven.  
Use the convection roasting rack on  
the broiler pan (both included with your  
range). (The convection roasting rack rests  
on the broiler pan, not inside it.) The long  
side of the rack should be parallel with the  
oven door for best heat distribution and  
airflow.  
NOTE: Place the convection roasting rack  
on the broiler pan with grid to contain the  
drippings as the meat roasts.

For best cleaning results  
After the oven cools to room tempera-  
ture, wipe up any residue or ash with a  
damp cloth or sponge. If any spots remain,  
clean with a mild abrasive cleanser or  
cleaning sponge.  
If the Self-Cleaning cycle does not get  
the oven as clean as you expected, the  
cycle may not have been set long enough  
or you may not have prepared the oven  
properly. Set the Self-Cleaning cycle  
longer the next time and hand-clean areas  
noted on page 47.  
Clean the oven before it gets heavily  
soiled. Cleaning a very soiled oven takes  
longer and results in more smoke than  
usual.  
How the cycle works  
The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high heat  
to burn away soil and grease. During the  
cycle, the oven gets much hotter than it  
does for normal baking or broiling. This high  
heat breaks up the soil or grease and burns  
it away.  
Your oven is preset for a 3-hour Self-  
Cleaning cycle. However, the cycle time can  
be adjusted to the amount of soil in your  
oven. The cycle can be set anywhere  
between 2 and 4 hours. (See “Setting the  
controls” on page 48.)
