COOKING MODES
What is Even-Heat™ technology?
KitchenAid's Even-Heat™ system helps
provide consistent cooking results, without
cold spots or overcooking. By cycling
different heating elements on and off, and
using certain elements for only part of the
cooking cycle, Even-Heat™ allows tender,
juicy roasts or pizzas with deliciously
browned cheese—automatically.
Bake
In Bake mode, the Even-Heat™ system
distributes power to the top and bottom
heating elements to maintain the desired
oven temperature. The top center element
will be off.
Bake mode tip
• Food may finish cooking up to 30% faster
when using Convection mode. Check
baked goods such as cakes, muffins, and
pastries before the expected finish time
to avoid over-cooking.
Asado Roast
The Asado Roast mode uses staged cooking
to allow larger items like whole chickens
or pork roasts to develop a crispy crust
while slowly cooking the interior. The
Even-Heat™ system distributes power to
the top and bottom heating elements to
maintain the desired oven temperature. The
convection fan will operate in the first stage
to assist with crisping the roast exterior, and
will then turn off to prevent over-drying.
Temper_atur_e & time infor_mation
In Asado Roast mode, the time and
temperature is set in 2 stages.
Stage 1 (Crisping) During Stage 1, the
outer layer of your roast will crisp as the
interior begins to warm. The convection
fan will default to ON to assist with crisping
the roast exterior, but may be turned off, if
desired. Smaller cuts of meat may require
less crisping than larger roasts; please
consult your recipe.

Stage 2 (Roasting) Temperature is reduced
in Stage 2 to allow heat to slowly and
evenly reach the center of your food until
it arrives at the desired finish temperature.
The convection fan will turn OFF to prevent
overdrying the outside.
