Overview

The AMFTZ60SS is a built-in electric multifunction twin zone oven designed for domestic use, offering versatility and control for various cooking needs.

Function Description

This oven features a unique twin zone capability, allowing the oven cavity to be divided into two separate cooking zones using a removable oven cavity divider. This enables independent cooking in the upper and lower zones simultaneously, or the use of a single, larger zone when the divider is removed. The oven supports various cooking functions including True Fan, Top Heat + Convectional, Large Grill, Small Grill, Bottom Heat + Convectional, Conventional, and Defrosting. The electronic programmer allows for precise control over temperature, cooking time, and delayed start cooking. A kitchen timer function is also available.
