IMPORTANT–Please Read and Follow!
IMPORTANT–Please Read and Follow!
A GFI shall be used if required by NFPA-70 (National Electric Code), federal/state/local
laws, or local ordinances.
• The required use of a GFI is normally related to the location of a receptacle with respect to
any significant sources of water or moisture.
• Viking Range Corporation will NOT warranty any problems resulting from GFI outlets which
are not installed properly or do not meet the requirements below.
If the use of a GFI is required, it should be:
• Of the receptacle type (breaker type or portable type NOT recommended)
• Used with permanent wiring only (temporary or portable wiring NOT recommended)
• On a dedicated circuit (no other receptacles, switches or loads in the circuit)
• Connected to a standard breaker of appropriate size (GFI breaker of the same size NOT
recommended)
• Rated for Class A (5 mA +/- 1 mA trip current) as per UL 943 standard)
• In good condition and free from any loose-fitting gaskets (if applicable in outdoor situations)
• Protected from moisture (water, steam, high humidity) as much as reasonably possible
It is your responsibility to:
• comply with installation specifications and dimensions.
• properly install unit.
• remove any moldings or decorative panels that prevent the unit from being serviced.
• make sure that you have these materials (not provided with your unit), which are necessary
for proper installation:
• 1/4” (6 mm) copper tubing with shutoff valve
• 6– #8 x 3” (7.6 cm) wood screws (longer screws may be required)
• 1– Saddle valve (do not use self-piercing feature of the valve)
• assure that floor will support unit, door panels and contents (approximately 1200 pounds [540 kg]).
• provide a properly grounded electrical outlet.
• assure that location will permit appliance doors to open 90° minimum.

ELECTRICAL SHOCK
HAZARD
Disconnect power or turn
power disconnect switch to
OFF position before removing
top grille. Failure to do so can
result in death or electrical shock.
TIP OVER HAZARD
Appliance is top
heavy and tips easily
when not completely
installed. Keep doors
closed until appliance
is completely installed
and secured per installation instructions.
Use two or more people to move and
install appliance. Failure to do so can
result in death or serious injury.
W A R N I N G
Most of the unit’s weight is at the top. Extra care is needed when moving the unit to prevent
tipping. Use cardboard shipping material or plywood under unit until it is installed in the
operating position to protect floor surface.

General Information
General Information
Area Requirements
Verify the following:
• Unit can fit into residence and can be
moved around corners and through
doorways.
• Floors can support unit’s weight plus food
weight (approximately 1200 pounds
[540 kg] per unit).
• Rear wall is solid and is able to support
two horizontally mounted 2 X 4s (included)
bolted to two wall studs. The 2 X 4 board
bolt heads must be flush with 2 X 4 to
prevent obstruction.
• Remove anything attached to rear or side
walls that can obstruct unit installation.
• Cutout dimensions are accurate.
• Electrical outlet is in correct location.
• Water line is in correct location.
• Do not install a refrigeration unit near a
heat source, nor in a location where the
surrounding temperature will fall below
60º F (16º C).
Electrical Requirements
It is the customer’s responsibility to:
• contact a qualified electrical installer.
• assure that the electrical installation is
adequate and in conformance with the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70latest edition or Canadian Electrical Code
C22.1-1998 and C22.2 No. 0-M91 (or
latest edition), and all local codes and
ordinances. A 115 volt, 60-Hz, 15 amp,
fused, electrical supply is required. It is
required that a separate circuit serving only
this appliance be provided. This appliance is
equipped with a power supply cord having a
3-prong grounding plug. To minimize
possible shock hazard, the cord must be
plugged into a mating 3-prong, groundingtype wall receptacle.
Do not use an extension cord.
If codes permit a separate grounding wire to
be used, it is recommended that a qualified
electrician determine that the grounding
path is adequate.
DO NOT ground to a gas pipe. Check with
a qualified electrician if you are not sure the
appliance is properly grounded. DO NOT
have a fuse in the neutral or grounding
circuit.
Anti-Tip Requirements
The anti-tip boards should be fastened into
position prior to moving the unit into the
opening.
Note: Additional mounting boards may be
required if the unit does not touch the back
wall of the enclosure. To prevent unit from
tipping forward, it must be secured in place
with a solid soffit or wood block.
Water Supply Requirements
W A R N I N G
To avoid serious illness or death, do not use unit
where water is microbiologically unsafe or of
unknown quality without adequate disinfection
before or after the system. Systems certified for cyst
reduction may be used on disinfected water that
may contain filterable cysts. The contaminants or
other substances removed or reduced by this water
treatment system are not necessarily in you water.
Use only 1/4” (6 mm) copper tubing for
water line. Do Not install copper tubing in
area where temperatures drop below
35° F (1.7° C). Before attaching copper
tubing to the unit, flush at least 2 quarts
(1.9 L) of water through the copper tubing
and into a bucket to remove any particles
in the water line.
• Viking Range Corporation is not
responsible for property damage due to
improper installation or water
connection.
• Connect 1/4” (6 mm) flexible copper
tubing to household plumbing in
compliance with local codes and
ordinances.
• Length of copper tubing must reach from
water supply connection to the unit
connection with an additional length to
facilitate moving the unit out of enclosure
for cleaning or service. Tubing should be
soft instead of rigid and ends should be
free of burrs.
• Copper tubing route must be above 35° F
(1.7° C) to prevent water line from freezing.
• Do not use plastic water lines from the
household plumbing to the water inlet
valve connection on the refrigeration
unit.
• Do not use the self-piercing feature of a
saddle valve. The hole made by the
piercing lance is too small for the water
flow rate required by the ice maker.
• If saddle valve is not used, place a
separate shut-off valve in an easily
accessible location between water supply
and the unit. Do not locate shut-off valve
behind the unit.
• The installation of Viking units with a
reverse osmosis system is acceptable
as long as the water pressure remains
within the allowable PSI as stated below.
It is important to note that with many
reverse osmosis systems, the pressure
starts off high, but then it decreases as the
water level of the reverse osmosis storage
area drops. This must be considered when
checking the water pressure coming into
the unit.
• Connect a vertical or horizontal 1/2”
(1.2 cm) to 1-1/4” (3.2 cm) COLD water
line near water area.
• Run water line through the floor, back, or
side wall. Tubing should lay flat on floor
underneath the unit. Clamp tubing to wall
or floor.
• Water pressure must be greater than 20 psi
and less than 120 psi on non-dispensers
and greater than 35 psi and less than 120
psi on dispensers.

• All four leveling legs must contact the floor
to support and stabilize the full weight.
• Do not drop unit.
• Remove exterior shipping materials prior
to moving unit into home.

appliance. Failure to do so can result in
death or serious injury.
Unpacking unit
1. Remove top and bottom strap.
2. Remove top cap.

socket wench and a pair of pliers.
Note: Tilting unit is not required to remove
shipping brackets.
Slip appliance dolly between unit and skid. Only
use dolly from the rear of the unit to remove unit
from skid. After the unit is removed from the
skid, a dolly can be used from either side or the
back BUT NOT THE FRONT.
Note: Use excess packaging to protect
