ABOUT YOUR DrawerMicro Oven
ALWAYS have food in the DrawerMicro Oven when it is on to absorb the
microwave energy.
The vent under the DrawerMicro Oven must not be blocked. During microwaving, steam may come from the right side of the vent.
When using the DrawerMicro Oven at power levels below 100%, you may
hear the magnetron cycling on and off. It is normal for the exterior of the
DrawerMicro Oven to be warm to the touch when cooking or reheating.
Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking. Room humidity and
the moisture in food will influence the amount of moisture that condenses
in the DrawerMicro Oven. Generally, covered foods will not cause as much
condensation as uncovered ones.
The DrawerMicro Oven is for food preparation only. It should not be used to
dry clothes or newspapers.
Your DrawerMicro Oven is rated 950 watts by using the IEC Test Procedure.
E
6
In using recipes or package directions, check food a minute or two before
the minimum time and add time accordingly.
When opening or closing the DrawerMicro Oven quickly, food in the
DrawerMicro Oven may be spilled. To clean, please refer to the Cleaning
and Care section on page 28.
ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING
• Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards outside of dish.
• Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and
add more as needed. Food severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.
• Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or cookbook for suggestions:
paper towels, wax paper, microwave plastic wrap or a lid. Covers prevent
spattering and help foods to cook evenly.
• Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil any thin areas of meat or
poultry to prevent overcooking before dense, thick areas are cooked
thoroughly.
• Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or twice during cooking, if
possible.
• Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed cooking of such foods
as chicken and hamburgers. Large items like roasts must be turned over
at least once.
• Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking both from
top to bottom and from right to left.
• Add standing time. Remove food from DrawerMicro Oven and stir, if
possible. Cover for standing time which allows the food to finish cooking
without overcooking.
• Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that cooking temperatures
have been reached.
Doneness signs include:
- Food steams throughout, not just at edge.
- Center bottom of dish is very hot to the touch.
- Poultry thigh joints move easily.
- Meat and poultry show no pinkness.
- Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

ABOUT UTENSILS AND COVERINGS
It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many pieces already in your
kitchen can be used successfully in your new DrawerMicro Oven. Make sure
the utensil does not touch the interior walls during cooking.
Use these utensils for safe microwave cooking and reheating:
• glass ceramic (Pyroceram®), such as Corningware®.
• heat-resistant glass (Pyrex®)
• microwave-safe plastics
• microwave-safe paper plates
• microwave-safe pottery, stoneware and porcelain
• browning dish (Do not exceed recommended preheating time. Follow
manufacturer’s directions.)
These items can be used for short time reheating of foods that have little
fat or sugar in them:
• wood, straw, wicker
DO NOT USE
• metal pans and bakeware
• dishes with metallic trim
• non-heat-resistant glass
• non-microwave-safe plastics (margarine tubs)
• recycled paper products
• brown paper bags
• food storage bags
• metal twist-ties
Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving, place the empty
dish in the oven and microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds. A dish which becomes very hot should not be used.
The following coverings are ideal:
• Paper towels are good for covering foods for reheating and absorbing
fat while cooking bacon.
• Wax paper can be used for cooking and reheating.
• Plastic wrap that is specially marked for microwave use can be used
for cooking and reheating. DO NOT allow plastic wrap to touch food.
Vent so steam can escape.
• Lids that are microwave-safe are a good choice because heat is kept
near the food to hasten cooking.
E
8
• Oven cooking bags are good for large meats or foods that need
tenderizing. DO NOT use metal twist ties. Remember to slit bag so
steam can escape.
How to use aluminum foil in your DrawerMicro Oven:
• Small flat pieces of aluminum foil placed smoothly on the food can
be used to shield areas that are either defrosting or cooking too
quickly.
• Foil should not come closer than one inch to any surface of the
DrawerMicro Oven.
Should you have questions about utensils or coverings, check a good microwave cookbook or follow recipe suggestions.
ACCESSORIES There are many microwave accessories available for purchase.
Evaluate carefully before you purchase so that they meet your needs. A microwave-safe thermometer will assist you in determining correct doneness
and assure you that foods have been cooked to safe temperatures. Viking is
not responsible for any damage to the DrawerMicro Oven when accessories
are used.
ABOUT CHILDREN AND THE MICROWAVE
Children below the age of 7 should use the DrawerMicro Oven with a supervising person very near to them. Between the ages of 7 and 12, the supervising
person should be in the same room. The child must be able to reach the
DrawerMicro Oven comfortably.
At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or swing on the DrawerMicro
Oven.
Children should be taught all safety precautions: use potholders, remove
coverings carefully, pay special attention to packages that crisp food because
they may be extra hot.
Don't assume that because a child has mastered one cooking skill he/she
can cook everything.
Children need to learn that the DrawerMicro Oven is not a toy. See page 25
for Control Lock feature.

E
ABOUT SAFETY
• Check foods to see that they are cooked to the United States Department
of Agriculture's recommended temperatures.
TEMP FOOD
160˚F (71˚C) For fresh pork, ground meat, boneless white poultry, fish,
seafood, egg dishes and frozen prepared food.
165˚F (74˚C)
For leftover, ready-to-reheat refrigerated, and deli and
carry-out “fresh” food.
170˚F (77˚C)
180˚F (82˚C)
White meat of poultry.
Dark meat of poultry.
To test for doneness, insert a meat thermometer in a thick or dense area
away from fat or bone. NEVER leave the thermometer in the food during
cooking, unless it is approved for microwave use.
• ALWAYS use potholders to prevent burns when handling utensils that are
in contact with hot food. Enough heat from the food can transfer through
utensils to cause skin burns.
• Avoid steam burns by directing steam away from the face and hands. Slowly
lift the farthest edge of a dish’s covering and carefully open popcorn and
oven cooking bags away from the face.
• Stay near the DrawerMicro Oven while it’s in use and check cooking progress frequently so that there is no chance of overcooking food.
• NEVER use the DrawerMicro Oven for storing cookbooks or other items.
• Select, store and handle food carefully to preserve its high quality and
minimize the spread of foodborne bacteria.
• Keep waveguide cover clean. Food residue can cause arcing and/or fires.
See page 29.

FOR
SENSOR SETTINGS
Viking's Sensor is a semi-conductor device that detects the vapor (moisture
and humidity) emitted from the food as it heats. The sensor adjusts the cooking times and power levels for various foods and quantities.
Using Sensor Settings:
1. After the DrawerMicro Oven is plugged in, wait 2 minutes before using
any sensor setting.
2. Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and the interior of the
DrawerMicro Oven are dry. Wipe off any moisture with a dry cloth or paper
towel.
3. The sensor works with foods at normal storage temperature. For example,
popcorn would be at room temperature.
4. Any sensor selection can be programmed with More or Less Time Adjustment. See page 25.
5. More or less food than the quantity listed in the charts should be cooked
following the guidelines in any microwave cookbook.
6. During the first part of sensor use, the food name will appear on the display.
Do not open the DrawerMicro Oven or touch Stop/Clear during this part
of the cycle. The measurement of vapor will be interrupted. If this occurs,
an error message will appear. To continue cooking, touch the Stop/Clear
pad and cook manually.
When the sensor detects the vapor emitted from the food, the remainder
of cooking/reheating time will appear. The DrawerMicro Oven may be
opened when the remaining time appears on the display. At this time,
you may stir or season food, as desired.
7. If the sensor does not detect vapor properly when popping popcorn,
the oven will turn off, and the time of day will be displayed. If the sensor
does not detect vapor properly when cooking other foods,
be displayed, and the microwave will turn off.
8. Check food temperature after cooking. If additional time is needed, continue to cook manually.
9. Each food has a cooking hint. Touch the Setup/Help pad when the HELP
indicator is lighted in the display.

MANUAL DEFROST
If the food that you wish to defrost is not listed on the DEFROST CHART or is
above or below the limits in the AMOUNT column on the DEFROST CHART,
you need to defrost manually.
You can defrost any frozen food, either raw or previously cooked, by using
Power Level at 30%. Follow the exact 3-step procedure found under TO SET
POWER LEVEL on page 16. Estimate defrosting time and Touch Power Level
pad eight times for 30% power.
For either raw or previously cooked frozen food the rule of thumb is approximately 4 minutes per pound. For example, defrost 4 minutes for 1 pound of
frozen spaghetti sauce.
Always stop the oven periodically to remove or separate the portions that
are defrosted. If food is not defrosted at the end of the estimated defrosting
time, program the oven in 1 minute increments on Power Level 30% until
totally defrosted.
When using plastic containers from the freezer, defrost only long enough to
remove from the plastic in order to place in a microwave-safe dish.

CLEANING AND CARE
EXTERIOR
The outside surface is precoated metal and plastic. Clean the outside with
mild soap and water; rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Do not use any type of
household or abrasive cleaner.
STAINLESS STEEL SURFACE
The exterior should be wiped often with a soft damp cloth and polished with
a soft dry cloth to maintain its beauty. There are also a variety of products
designed especially for cleaning and shining the stainless exterior of the
oven. We recommend that the cleaner be applied to a soft cloth and then
carefully used on the stainless exterior rather than sprayed directly on to it.
Follow package directions carefully.
FRONT SIDE OF THE DRAWER
Wipe the window on both sides with a soft damp cloth to remove any spills
or spatters. Metal parts will be easier to maintain if wiped frequently with
a soft damp cloth. Avoid the use of spray and other harsh cleaners as they
may stain, streak or dull the door surface.
TOUCH CONTROL PANEL
If desired, the touch pads may be deactivated before cleaning. See the
Control Lock information on page 25 of this manual. Wipe the panel with a
cloth dampened slightly with water only. Dry with a soft cloth. Do not scrub
or use any sort of chemical cleaners. Close door and follow directions on
page 25 for turning Control Lock off. Touch Stop/Clear.
INTERIOR
Cleaning is easy because no heat is generated to the interior surfaces;
therefore, there is no baking and setting of spills or spattering. To clean the
interior surfaces, including drawer sealing surfaces, wipe with a soft damp
cloth. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEANERS OR SCOURING PADS.
For heavier soil, use mild soap; wipe clean with a soft damp cloth. Do not
use any chemical oven cleaners.
DrawerMicro Oven GUIDES
Remove the food crumbs from the DrawerMicro Oven guides. Wipe with a
soft dry cloth in order to keep the DrawerMicro Oven opening and closing
smoothly.
