COOKING MODES GUIDE
PARTS AND FEATURES
Your Countertop Oven features 9
cooking modes specially designed for a
variety of cooking tasks. Each uses the
KitchenAid
®
Even-Heat™ system to control
a combination of elements, applying heat
where it’s needed for optimal results.
Memory settings allow you to customize
the time and temperature in each mode
to fit your specific needs. The Countertop
Oven will remember all your settings for the
next use (until unplugged). The additional
Convection and Frozen functions (available
on certain cooking modes) allow you to take
countertop cooking to a whole new level.
Refer to the quick guide below for Cooking Mode options, or see detailed explanations and
tips for each cooking mode on the following pages.
