Turntable, Cooking Rack | KitchenAid KHHS179L instruction

In contrast, microwave ovens utilizing this microwave system deliver the selected power level continuously. This constant stream of microwave power helps to minimize overcooking of foods and messy food spatters.

Additionally, the oven uses a 1,000-watt halogen bulb with a 500- watt quartz bulb together to serve as the grill element for various cooking functions. When this element is in use, it produces a bright light in the oven cavity, and causes the cavity and door to become hot. The use of oven mitts is recommended.

Sensor Cooking

The microwave system features sensor cooking functions. A humidity sensor in the oven cavity detects moisture and humidity emitted from food as it heats. The sensor adjusts cooking times to various types and amounts of food. Sensor cooking takes the guesswork out of microwave cooking.
