COOKING METHODSCOOKING MODES GUIDE
For cooking and food preparation tips, see “See Tips for Great Results” on how to get the
most of each cooking method.
Sear (220–230° C)
Searing allows you to prepare meats for
stews, soups, and other dishes. It uses high
temperatures to cook the outside surfaces
quickly, trapping flavour and juices inside.
Sauté (160–190° C)
Sautéing is ideal for giving meats and
vegetables a fresh, crisp flavour and texture.
Use sauté for creating oriental dishes, stirfries, and breakfast foods such as sausage
and scrambled eggs.
Bake (165–190° C)
Select bake to make cakes, casseroles,
and other dishes.
Boil/Steam (90–110° C)
Use Boil/Steam to prepare a variety of foods
such as hot cereals, steam shrimp, or to heat
delicate foods such as fish with indirect heat.
Simmer (85–100° C)
Simmer is great for soups and stews where
a gentle cooking helps yield rich, hearty
flavours.
Slow Cook (90° C)
Slow Cook allows the Multi-Cooker to be
used like a slow cooker, making it ideal for
slow cooking BBQ, chili, and meatballs, to
name just a few.
Keep Warm (75° C)
Keep Warm mode is designed to keep foods
at serving temperature after cooking has
finished for up to 24 hours. Certain cooking
methods and modes feature an automatic
Keep Warm mode. For other cooking
methods and modes, Keep Warm can be
selected manually.
IMPORTANT: Use Keep Warm only with
fully cooked food. Keep Warm is intended
to keep fully cooked food at serving
temperature.

TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTSOPERATING THE MULTI-COOKER
Cooking tips
Refer to the following tips for getting the most
out of the different cooking modes.
Searing and Sautéing:
• For best browning results, pat exterior
surfaces of meat dry with paper towels
before sautéing or searing.
• It’s important not to over-crowd the cooking
pot when browning meat for a recipe.
Brown approx. 0.25 kg or less at a time
for the best results and to avoid steaming
the meat.
• If using oil or butter for sautéing, add it after
the preheating the multi-cooker.
• To easily drain grease after searing or
sautéing food, place the lid on the cooking
pot in the drain position and hold it securely
with hot pads while pouring grease into a
heat safe container.
• When sautéing vegetables such as carrots,
celery, onions, and garlic, add larger cut
ingredients rst and cook for several
minutes before adding smaller cut foods
such as minced garlic. This ensures all of the
vegetables are evenly cooked and the garlic
does not burn.
Steaming:
• It is not necessary to allow the unit to
preheat when steaming foods, simply add
water, place food on the steaming rack and
set the multi-cooker to STEAM. At the end
of the preheat time, press the START button.
• Foods will steam faster if cooked in a single
layer. Larger amounts of food may need to
be repositioned midway through the cooking
time for even results.
• Foods that have been cut or trimmed into
pieces approximately the same size will cook
more evenly.
• Make sure the lid covers the cooking pot
spout to trap steam for optimal cooking
performance.
• Removing the lid slowly during steaming.
Rice:
• It is important to measure rice and water
accurately before cooking for best results.
• Some varieties of rice are washed/rinsed
prior to cooking. U.S. varieties generally
are not, as they have been enriched with
vitamins and minerals. Rinsing these types of
rice removes the added nutrients. If washing
rice before cooking, be sure to measure it
before washing, not after, and try to drain as
much water away as possible before adding
the amount needed for cooking.
• After adding rice and water to the
multi-cooker pot, spread the rice into
an even layer on the bottom for the best
cooking results. Do not remove the lid
during cooking.
• Most types of rice will be slightly
undercooked at the end of the Rice cooking
cycle. Allowing the cooked rice to rest in
the cooking pot with the lid on for 5 to 10
minutes will allow the last bit of moisture to
be absorbed.
• Oil, butter and salt and other seasonings
can all be added if desired. Stir in prior to
starting the Rice cooking cycle. Liquids other
than water can also be used to add avour.
Try substituting sh, poultry, vegetable or
meat stocks or broths.
• Chopped fresh herbs can be stirring into
cooked rice at the end of the cooking cycle
before allowing the rice to rest.
• Make sure the lid covers the cooking pot
spout to trap steam for optimal rice cooking
performance.
Soup:
• Follow the cooking tips for Sauté/Sear when
using this part of the Soup cooking cycle.
• The bits of cooked on foods on the bottom
of the cooking pot after browning contain
lots of avour. Add some of the liquid
from your recipe and scrape them up with
a wooden spoon to add depth and more
intense avour to your soup.
• Cutting foods into pieces approximately the
same size will ensure the most even cooking
results.
• It is not necessary to thaw frozen vegetables
prior to adding to a soup for cooking, but the
cooking time may need to be lengthened.
Frozen meats should be thawed before
cooking with the Soup cycle to be sure they
are properly cooked through.
• It’s best to add dairy ingredients such as
cream, milk or cheeses near the end of
cooking to prevent separation.
English
25
Risotto:
• In general, the rice for risotto should be
sautéed in some type of fat prior to adding
any of the liquids in the recipe. Allow the
multi-cooker to preheat in the Sauté stage,
and then add butter or oil as outlined in your
recipe. Add the amount of rice specied in
the recipe and stir it occasionally for several
minutes or until the outer edges of the rice
grains are semi-transparent but the interior
is still white. Other ingredients that need to
be sautéed such as onions, garlic or other
vegetables can also be added and cooked
during this step.
• If your recipe calls for wine, add it before
adding the other liquids. This allows the
avour of the wine to be absorbed into
the rice.
• Heat the liquids for your risotto recipe on
the stove or in the microwave until very hot,
generally just below the boiling point.
• Add hot liquids to the rice in one-cup
(190 g) increments and stir constantly until
almost all of the liquid has been absorbed
before adding more.
• It is best to add cheese, herbs or other
delicate ingredients during the last few
minutes of cooking.
• To prevent overcooking and keep the
texture of the risotto creamy, remove the
cooking pot from the multi-cooker base
after your recipe is nished if not serving
immediately.
Slow-Cooking:
• As a general rule for using your favourite
recipes in the Multi-Cooker, increase the
amounts of herbs and seasonings to offset
the effect of longer cooking times.
• Do not use frozen, uncooked meat in the
Multi-Cooker. Always thaw meats prior to
slow cooking. The size you cut food into
can affect its taste and texture. To assure
uniformity of cooking, cut vegetables of
similar density, such as potatoes, carrots,
and parsnips into similar-sized pieces. In
general, dense vegetables should be slightly
smaller than more tender vegetables.
• Cutting meats into large pieces allows longer
cooking times and avoids overcooking.
• Some foods are not suited for extended
cooking. Pasta, seafood, milk, cream or
sour cream should be added 2 hours
before serving.
• Add garnishes, fresh herbs, and quickcooking vegetables toward the end of the
cooking cycle. For example, you can add
peas, corn and freshly sliced squash in the
last 10 to 20 minutes.
Yogurt:
• Yogurt can be made from whole, reduced fat
or fat free milk. Whole or 2% milk will result
in yogurt with a thicker texture.
• For best result, refrigerate yogurt before
straining whey through cheese cloth for a
thicker texture.
• Once you start making your own yogurt, you
can use some of the previous batch to make
the next one. Only do this 2-3 times before
starting with fresh.
Manual:
• When heating a large amount of water for
cooking pasta or other foods, use MANUAL
mode at the highest temperature setting
230° C (450°F). Note that the display will
likely continue to scroll “preheating” even
after the water has reached a full rolling boil,
as the unit is sensing the water temperature.

CARE AND CLEANINGTIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS
Cleaning your Multi-Cooker
Unplug your Multi-Cooker from the wall
socket before cleaning.
• Allow Multi-Cooker and accessories
to cool completely before cleaning.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners or metal
scouring pads. They could scratch
the surface.
• Wipe the outside of the Multi-Cooker with
a clean, damp cloth and dry thoroughly. A
nonabrasive liquid cleaner may be used for
stubborn stains.
• The ceramic nonstick coating of the
Multi-Cooker pot is scratch-resistant.
However, dropping or hard impacts can
chip or crack the ceramic coating.
• The pot of the Multi-Cooker has a nonstick
coating for easy cleaning. Repeated
washing in the dishwasher can reduce the
effectiveness of the nonstick coating.
NOTE: The lid and pot are dishwasher
durable, but handwashing in hot, soapy
water is recommended to maximize the life
of the nonstick coating.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If your Multi-Cooker malfunctions or fails to operate
• Is the Multi-Cooker plugged into
a grounded (earthed) outlet?
Plug the Multi-Cooker into a grounded
(earthed) outlet.
English
• Is the fuse in the circuit to the
Multi-Cooker in working order?
If you have a circuit breaker box, make
sure the circuit is closed. Try unplugging the
Multi-Cooker, then plug it back in.
• Multi-Cooker turned off on its own.
The Multi-Cooker has an auto shutoff
feature. Depending on the cooking method,
the Multi-Cooker will automatically shut
off after up to 12 hours (24 hours when in
Keep Warm mode).
• If the problem cannot be corrected:
See the “KitchenAid Warranty and Service”
sections. Do not return the Multi-Cooker
to the retailer – retailers do not provide
service.
