Bake

Whenusing this function, full­powerheat is radiatedfrom the
bakeelement in the bottomof the
ovencavity,while supplemental
heatis radiated fromthe broil
element. Thisfunction is
recommendedfor single-rack
baking.Use this settingfor baking,
roasting, andcasseroles.

Broil

Thisfunction is a dry-heatcooking
method,using director radiant
heaton three different settings:
low,medium andhigh. The
distance betweenthe foods and
thebroilelementsdetermines
broiling speed.This functionis
recommendedfor small,
individualizedcuts, suchas steaks,
chops,and patties.

TruConvec™

With this function, only the rear
element operates at full power.
There is no direct heat from the
bottom or top elements, and the
motorized fan in the rear of the
oven circulates for even heating.

Viking Quick Reference Guide

Designer Series

Built-In Electric Touch Control

Single and Double Ovens

Use this setting for foods that require gentle cooking, such as pastries, soufflés,
yeast breads, quick breads, and cakes. This setting produces breads, cookies,
and other baked goods with an even texture and golden crusts. No special
bakeware is required. Use this function for single-rack baking, multiple-rack
baking, roasting, and preparation of complete meals. This setting is also
recommended when preparing large quantities of baked goods at one time.

Convection Bake

With this function, the
bottom element operates at
full power, and the top broil
element operates at
supplemental power. The
motorized fan in the rear of
the oven circulates heated
air, providing a more even
heat distribution. This even
circulation of air equalizes the
temperature throughout the
oven cavity and eliminates
the hot and cold spots found
in conventional ovens.

A major benefit of convection baking is the ability to prepare food in larger
quantities using multiple racks. When roasting using this setting, cool air is
quickly replaced, searing meats on the outside and retaining more juices and
natural flavor on the inside, with less shrinkage. With this heating method,
foods can be baked and roasted at the same time with minimal taste transfer,
even when different dishes are involved, such as cakes, fish, or meat. The hot
air system is especially economical when thawing frozen food. Use this setting
for baking and roasting.

Convection Broil

Using this function, the top
element operates at full
power. This function is
exactly the same as regular
broiling with the additional
benefit of air circulation by
the motorized fan in the rear
of the oven. Smoke is
reduced since the airflow
also reduces the peak
temperatures on the food.
Use this setting for broiling
thick cuts of meat.

AutoRoast*

Thisfunction furthersimplifiesroastingby automatically searing
theoutside of meats,raising thepre-set temperatureby100°F
fora shorttime to sear the outsideof the meat.Thetemperature
thenreturns to the pre-settemperature in thestandard
convectionroastmode.

MeatProbe*

Theprobetemperature functionis used to automaticallyturn the
ovenoff when the internaltemperatureof meat beingcooked is
reached.

Proof*

Thisfunction usesa lowtemperatureto create an optimal
environmentfor the yeast to risein many types of dough.

ConvectionRoast

With this function, the
convection element runs in
conjunction with the inner and
outer broil elements. The
reversible convection fan runs
at a higher speed in each
direction, allowing the moisture
to be sealed inside large cuts of
meat, such as roasts. This saves
time when compared with
single fan convection roast
modes. Use this setting for
whole turkeys, whole chickens,
and roasts.

NOTE: Because this function uses a high-speed convection fan for optimum
cooking performance, some noise may be noticed from the high fan speed.
This is normal.

Defrost

With the temperature control off, a motorized fan in the rear
of the oven circulates air. This fan accelerates natural
defrosting of the food without heat.

NOTE: To avoid sickness and food waste, do not allow
defrosted food to remain in the oven for more than two
hours.

Dehydrate

With this function, a motorized fan in the rear of the oven
circulates warm air. Over a period of time, the water is
removed from the food by evaporation. Removal of water
inhibits growth of microorganisms and retards the activity of
enzymes. It is important to remember that dehydration does
not improve quality; only fresh, top-quality foods should be
dehydrated in your oven.

Self-Clean

The self-cleaning cycle is designed to eliminate the need for
scrubbing and scouring food baked onto the oven interior.
During this cycle, the oven uses high temperatures to burn off
soils and deposits. An integral smoke eliminator reduces
odors associated with the soil burn-off. A powder ash residue
is left in the bottom of the oven after completion of the self­clean cycle. When the oven has cooled, remove any ash from oven surfaces
with a damp sponge or cloth.
