KitchenAid 30-Inch Steam-Assist Combination Microwave Wall Oven, Architect® Series II Utilização E Cuidado

The bakeware material affects cooking results. Follow 
manufacturer’s recommendations and use the bakeware size 
recommended in the recipe. Use the following chart as a guide.

On models without a temperature probe, use a meat 
thermometer to determine whether meat, poultry and fish, are 
cooked to the desired degree of doneness. The internal 
temperature, not appearance, should be used to determine 
doneness. A meat thermometer is not supplied with this 
appliance.

■

Insert the thermometer into the center of the thickest portion 
of the meat or inner thigh and breast of poultry. The tip of the 
thermometer should not touch fat, bone or gristle.

■

After reading the thermometer once, push it into the meat 
½" (1.3 cm) more and read again. If the temperature drops, 
cook the meat or poultry longer.

■

Check all meat, poultry and fish in 2 or 3 different places.

The oven vent should not be blocked or covered since it allows 
the release of hot air and moisture from the lower oven. Blocking 
or covering lower oven vent will cause poor air circulation, 
affecting cooking and cleaning results.

During baking or roasting, the bake and broil elements will cycle 
on and off in intervals to maintain the oven temperature.

If the oven door is opened during baking or roasting, the heating 
elements (bake, both broils, and convection fan) will turn off 
approximately 30 seconds after the door is opened. They will turn 
on again approximately 30 seconds after the door is closed. 

Before baking or roasting, position racks according to the 
“Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. When roasting, it is 
not necessary to wait for the oven to preheat before putting food 
in, unless recommended in the recipe.

1. From the Main menu, touch BAKE.

2. To change the preset temperature, enter the desired 

temperature using the number keys. The temperature can be 
set between 170°F and 500°F (77°C and 260°C).

3. To enter a cook time, touch COOK TIME. Enter the desired 

cook time using the number keys.
