FEATURE GUIDE

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS, located in your appliance’s Owner’s Manual, before operating this appliance.
This manual covers several models. Your model may have some or all of the items listed. Refer to this manual or the Product Help section of our website at www.kitchenaid.com for more detailed instructions. In Canada, refer to the Product Help Section at www.kitchenaid.ca.

WARNING

  • Food Poisoning Hazard
  • Do not let food sit for more than one hour before or after cooking.
  • Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.

Cooktop Use

WARNING
Fire Hazard
Turn off all controls when done cooking. Failure to do so could result in death or fire.

Ceramic Glass

  • The surface cooking area will glow red when an element is on. Some parts of the surface cooking area may not glow red when an element is on. This is normal operation. It will also randomly cycle off and back on again, even while on HIGH, to keep the cooktop from extreme temperatures.
    It is normal for the surface of ceramic glass to appear to change color when the surface cooking areas are hot. As the glass cools, it will return to its original color.

  • Clean the cooktop after each use to help avoid scratches, pitting, abrasions, and to condition the glass surface. Ceramic glass cooktop cleaner and a cooktop scraper are also recommended for stubborn soils. Do not use abrasive cleaners, cleaning pads, or harsh chemicals for cleaning. The Cooktop Care Kit Part Number 31605 contains all of the items needed to clean and condition your ceramic glass cooktop. Refer to the “Range Maintenance and Care” section in the Owner’s Manual for additional information.

  • IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the cooktop surface and to make soils easier to remove, clean the cooktop after each use to remove all soils
    Cooktops with an Even-Heat™ Ultra element provide the best speed to boil and simmering performance for large pans. For pans 10″ (25.4 cm) and larger, use the Even-Heat Ultra element at “Ultra Hi” setting for fastest boiling performance. For best low heat performance on pans 10″ (25.4 cm) and larger, use the Even-Heat Ultra element at the “Even Heat Simmer” setting.

  • Use flat-bottomed cookware for best heat conduction and energy efficiency. Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed, or dented bottoms could cause uneven heating and poor cooking results.

  • Determine flatness by placing the straight edge of a ruler across the bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the ruler, no space or light should be visible between it and the cookware.

  • Cookware designed with slightly indented bottoms or small expansion channels can be used.

  • Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry before using them. Residue and water can leave deposits when heated.

  • Avoid storing jars or cans above the cooktop. Dropping a heavy or hard object onto the cooktop could crack the cooktop.

  • To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not leave a hot lid on the cooktop. As the cooktop cools, air can become trapped between the lid and the cooktop, and the ceramic glass could break when the lid is removed.

  • For foods containing sugar in any form, clean up all spills and soils as soon as possible. Allow the cooktop to cool slightly. Then, while wearing oven mitts, remove the spills using a scraper while the surface is still warm. If the sugary spills are allowed to cool down, they can adhere to the cooktop and can cause pitting and permanent marks.

  • To avoid scratches, do not slide cookware or bakeware across the cooktop. Aluminum or copper bottoms and rough finishes on cookware or bakeware could leave scratches or marks on the cooktop.

  • Do not cook popcorn in prepackaged aluminum containers on the cooktop. They could leave aluminum marks that can not be removed completely.

  • To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not allow objects that could melt, such as plastic or aluminum foil, to touch any part of the entire cooktop.

  • To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not use the cooktop as a cutting board.

  • To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not cook food directly on the cooktop.

Cooktop On Indicator Light
The Cooktop On indicator light is located on the console panel. When any control knob/cooktop element on the console panel is turned on, the Cooktop On indicator light will glow.

Hot Surface Indicator Light
On ceramic glass models, the hot surface indicator light is located on the console panel.
The hot surface indicator light will glow as long as any surface cooking area is too hot to touch, even after the surface cooking area is turned off.

Triple Zone Element
The Triple Zone Element offers flexibility depending on the size of the cookware. Single size can be used in the same way as a regular element. The dual and triple sizes combine single, dual, and outer elements and are recommended for larger-size cookware, large quantities of food, and home canning.

Even-Heat™ Ultra Element
The Even-Heat™ Ultra Element offers additional cooking flexibility. The Even- Heat™ Ultra Element can be used to boil liquids faster. The lowest setting can be used to prepare sauces and to keep foods at a low temperature. Use cookware appropriate in size for the Even-Heat™ Ultra Element.

Warm Zone Element

  • Use the cooktop Warm Zone element to keep cooked foods warm. One hour is the recommended maximum time to maintain food quality.
  • Do not use it to heat cold foods.
  • The Warm Zone element can be used alone or when any of the other surface cooking areas are being used.
  • The Warm Zone Element area will not glow red when cycling on. However, the Cooktop/Element On indicator light will glow while the Cooktop Warm Zone Element is in use.
  • Use only cookware recommended for oven and cooktop use.
  • Cover all foods with a lid or aluminum foil. When warming baked goods, allow a small opening in the cover for moisture to escape.
  • To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not use plastic wrap to cover food because the plastic wrap may melt.
  • Use pot holders or oven mitts to remove food.

To Use

  1. To turn on, press WARM ZONE ON then START.
  2. To turn off, press WARM ZONE OFF.

Cookware

  • IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface cooking area, element or surface burner.
  • Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides and a well-fitting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy thickness.
  • Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop or coils. Aluminum and copper may be used as a core or base in cookware. However, when used as a base they can leave permanent marks on the surfaces.
  • Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has the same characteristics as its base material. For example, aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the properties of aluminum.
  • Cookware with nonstick surfaces should not be used under the broiler.
  • Check for flatness by placing the straight edge of a ruler across the bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the ruler, no space or light should be visible between it and the cookware.

Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material characteristics.

Home Canning
Canning can be performed on a glass smooth-top cooking surface or a traditional coil element cooktop. See the “Cookware” section to check if the canner will work on the induction cooktop. When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface cooking areas or elements between batches. This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.

  • Center the canner on the largest surface cooking area or element. On electric cooktops, canners should not extend more than 1/2″ (13 mm or 1.3 cm) beyond the surface cooking area or element.
  • Do not place canner on 2 surface cooking areas or elements at the same time.
  • On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners to avoid damage to the cooktop and elements.
  • For more information, contact your local agricultural extension office, or refer to published home canning guides. Companies that manufacture home canning products can also offer assistance.

OVEN USE
Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few times or when it is heavily soiled.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well ventilated room.

Do not clean the roll-out rack in the dishwasher. It may remove the rack’s lubricant and affect its ability to slide.
See the “General Cleaning” section in your Owner’s Manual for more information.

Baking and Roasting

Preheating
When beginning a Bake, Convect Bake, or Convect Roast cycle, the oven will begin preheating after Start is pressed. The oven will take approximately 12 to 15 minutes to reach 350°F (177°C) with all of the oven racks provided with your oven inside the oven cavity. Higher temperatures will take longer to preheat. The preheat cycle rapidly increases the oven temperature. The actual oven temperature will go above your set temperature to offset the heat lost when your oven door is opened to insert food. This ensures that when you place your food in the oven, the oven will begin at the proper temperature. Insert your food when the preheat tone sounds. Do not open the door during preheat before the tone sounds.

Oven Temperature
While in use, the oven elements will cycle on and off as needed to maintain a consistent temperature, but they may run slightly hot or cool at any point in time due to this cycling. Opening the oven door while in use will release the hot air and cool the oven which could impact the cooking time and performance. It is recommended to use the oven light to monitor cooking progress.
NOTE: On models with convection, the convection fan may run in the non- convection Bake mode to improve oven performance.

Temperature Management System
The Temperature Management System electronically regulates the oven heat levels during preheat and bake to maintain a precise temperature range for optimal cooking results. The bake and broil elements or burners cycle on and off in intervals. On convection range models, the fan will run while preheating and may be cycled on and off for short intervals during bake to provide the best results. This feature is automatically activated when the oven is in use.

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

Broiling
When broiling, preheat the oven for 5 minutes before putting food in unless recommended otherwise in the recipe. Leave the desired oven door open 4 1/2″ (114 mm) at the broil stop position to ensure proper broiling temperature. Position food on grid in a broiler pan, and then place it in the center of the oven rack. NOTE: Odors and smoke are normal the first few times the oven is used or if the oven is heavily soiled.
Changing the temperature when broiling allows more precise control when cooking. The lower the broil setting is, the slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish, and poultry may cook better at lower broil settings. Refer to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section for more information.
On lower settings, the broil element will cycle on and off to maintain the proper temperature.

  • For best results, use a broiler pan and grid. It is designed to drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke.
  • If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be ordered. See the Quick Start Guide for contact information.

Lower Oven Convection Cooking
In a convection oven, the fan-circulated hot air continually distributes heat more evenly than the natural movement of air in a standard thermal oven. This movement of hot air helps maintain a consistent temperature throughout the oven, cooking foods more evenly, crisping the surfaces while sealing in moisture and yielding crustier breads.

During the convection cooking, the bake, broil and convection (true convection only) elements cycle on and off in intervals to maintain the oven temperature, while the fan circulates the hot air.
If the oven door is opened during convection cooking, the fan will turn off immediately. It will come back on when the oven door is closed.
NOTE: The oven door must be closed for convection broiling.

Position the racks according to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section before starting convection cooking.
With convection cooking, most foods can be cooked at a lower temperature or for a shorter length of time. These adjustments can be made using the following chart or by using the EasyConvect™ Conversion feature on your range.

BowTie True Convection with T.H.E.™ Element
True convection adds an electric element around the convection fan to enhance the cooking performance. Use the following Convect Options chart as a guide.

EasyConvect™ Conversion
Convection cooking temperatures and times can differ from those of standard cooking. Depending upon the selected category, EasyConvect™ conversion automatically reduces the standard recipe temperature and/or time you input for convection cooking.
Foods are grouped into 3 general categories. Choose the category most appropriate for the food to be cooked. Use the following chart as a guide.

To Use
NOTE: For best results, preheat your oven to the desired temperature prior to using EasyConvect™ Conversion. After preheating is complete, press OFF LOWER before using EasyConvect™ Conversion.

  1. Press EASY CONVECT until the desires option (MEATS, BAKED GOODS, or OTHER) is displayed.

  2. Press START.

  3. Press number pad to enter standard cook temperature, and then press START.

  4. Press number pads to enter standard cook time, and then press START.

  5.  Place the food in the oven.

  6.  Press OFF LOWER when finished.

  7. Remove food from the oven.

Slow Cook
Recommended Temperature Range:

  • 4 hour cook time = 250°F to 300°F (120°C to 150°C)
  • 8 hour cook time = 200°F to 250°F (93°C to 120°C)
  • 2 hour cook time = 170°F to 226°F (77°C to 108°C)
  • Food should be completely thawed.
  • Cover food to keep moist.
  • Prior to Slow Roasting, meat can be pan seared or broiled on the sides to enhance browning, flavor, and tenderness.
  • Use a flat rack in position 3 for best results.
