• Many aerosol-type spray cans are EXPLOSIVE when exposed to heat and may be highly flammable. Avoid their use or storage near an appliance.
• Many plastics are vulnerable to heat. Keep plastics away from parts of the appliance that may become warm or hot. DO NOT leave plastic items on the range as they may melt or soften if left too close to the vent or a surface element.
• Combustible items (paper, plastic, etc.) may ignite and metallic items may become hot and cause burns. leave oven unsupervised when drying herbs, breads, mushrooms, etc; fire hazard.
DO NOT
pour spirits over hot foods.
DO NOT
In Case of Fire
Turn off appliance and ventilating hood to avoid spreading the flame. Extinguish flame then turn on hood to remove smoke and odor.
Cooking Surface: Smother fire or flame in a pan with a lid or cookie sheet.
• NEVER pick up or move a flaming pan.
• Oven: Smother fire or flame by closing the oven door. DO NOT use water on grease fires. Use baking soda, a dry chemical or
foam-type extinguisher to smother fire or flame.
Child Safety
• To eliminate the hazard of reaching over hot surface elements, cabinet storage should not be provided directly above a unit. If storage is provided, it should be limited to items which are used infrequently and which are safely stored in an area subjected to heat from an appliance. Temperatures may be unsafe for some items, such as volatile liquids, cleaners or aerosol sprays.
• NEVER leave children alone or unsupervised near the appliance when it is in use or is still hot.
• NEVER allow children to sit or stand on any part of the appliance as they could be injured or burned.
Child Safety (cont.)
DO NOT store items of interest to children over the unit. Children climbing to reach items could be seriously injured.
• Children must be taught that the appliance and utensils in it can be hot. Let hot utensils cool in a safe place, out of reach of small children. Children should be taught that an appliance is not a toy. Children should not be allowed to play with controls or other parts of the appliance.
Cooking Safety
ALWAYS place a pan on a surface element before turning it on. Be sure you know which knob controls which surface element. Make sure the correct element is turned on. When cooking is completed, turn element off before removing pan.
• NEVER leave a surface cooking operation unattended especially when using a high heat setting or when deep fat frying. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers may ignite. Clean up greasy spills as soon as possible. DO NOT use high heat for extended cooking operations.
• NEVER heat an unopened container on the surface element or in the oven. Pressure build-up may cause container to burst resulting in serious personal injury or damage to the appliance.

Preheat
For best results, it is extremely important that you preheat your oven to the desired cooking temperature before placing food items in the oven to begin cooking. In many cooking modes, partial power from the broiler is used to bring the oven to the preheat temperature. Therefore, placing food items in the oven during the preheat mode is not recommended. The Viking Rapid Ready™ Preheat System is engineered so that
Conventional and Convection Cooking
Because of variations in food density, surface texture and consistency, some foods may be prepared more successfully using the conventional bake setting. For this reason, conventional baking is recommended when preparing baked goods such as custard. The user may find other foods that are also prepared more consistently in conventional bake. This is perfectly normal. Convection cooking is a cooking technique which utilizes fan forced air to circulate heat throughout the entire oven creating the optimum cooking environment. Cooking with convection is intended when performing multi-rack baking and for
baking heavier foods. the oven is brought to the desired set temperature in a manner which will provide the optimum cooking environment based on the selected cooking mode in the shortest possible time.
Conventional and Convection Cooking Tips
• As a general rule, to convert conventional recipes to convection recipes, reduce the temperature by 25° F (-3.9° C) and the cooking
For instance, the preheat mode for TruConvec™ is designed to be brought up to the set point temperature in a different manner than the preheat mode for conventional bake. This is because TruConvec™ is designed for multi-rack baking. So it is extremely critical that all rack positions have reached the desired cooking temperature. As a result, it is normal for oven to take slightly longer for the oven to preheat to 350°F in TruConvec™ mode when compared to the amount of time it takes to preheat the oven cavity to 350°F in conventional bake mode.
time by approximately 10 to 15%.
• Cooking times for standard baking and convection baking will be the same. However, if using convection to cook a single item or smaller load, then it is possible to have 10-15% reduction in cooking time. (Remember convection cooking is designed for multi-rack baking or cooking large loads.)
• If cooking items which require longer than 45 minutes, then it is possible to see a 10-15% reduction in cooking time. This is especially true for large items cooked in the convection roast
Also, preheat time can vary based on some external factors such as room temperature and power supply. A significantly colder room temperature or a power supply less than 240 VAC can lengthen the time it takes for the oven to reach the desired set temperature.

function.
• A major benefit of convection cooking is the ability to prepare foods in quantity. The uniform air circulation makes this possible. Foods that can be prepared on two of three racks at the same time include: pizza, cakes, cookies, biscuits, muffins, rolls, and frozen convenience foods.
Operation
• For three-rack baking, use any combination of rack positions 2, 3, 4, and 5. For two-rack baking, use rack positions 2 and 4 or positions 3 and 5. Remember that the racks are numbered from bottom to top.
See “Oven Features” illustration.
• Items cooked in a convection function can be easily over baked. This being the case, it is usually a good idea to pull items out of the oven just before they seem to be done. Items will continue to cook right after they are set out of the oven.

Conventional and Convection Cooking Tips (cont.)
• Some recipes, especially those that are homemade, may require adjustment and testing when converting from standard to convection modes. If unsure how to convert a recipe, begin by preparing the recipe in conventional bake. After achieving acceptable results, follow the convection guidelines listed for the similar food type. If the food is not prepared to your satisfaction during this first convection trial, adjust only one recipe variable at a time (cooking time, rack position, or temperature) and repeat the convection test. Continue adjusting one recipe variable at a time until satisfactory results are achieved.

Pan Placement Tips
• When using large (15" x 13") flat pans or trays that cover most of the rack, rack positions 2 or 3 produce the best results.
• When baking on more than one rack, it is recommended to use one of the convection modes and the 2nd and 4th positions or the 3rd and 5th positions for more even baking. When baking on three racks, use any combination of positions 2, 3, 4, and 5 for more consistent results.
• Stagger pans in opposite directions when two racks and several pans are used in conventional bake. If possible, no pan should be directly above another.
• Allow 1 to 2 inches of air space around all sides of each pan for even air circulation.

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.

TRU CONV (TruConvec™)
The rear element only operates at full power. There is no direct heat from the bottom or top elements. The motorized fan in the rear of the oven circulates air in the oven cavity for even heating. Use this setting for foods that require gentle cooking such as pastries, souffles, yeast breads, quick breads and cakes. Breads, cookies, and other baked goods come out evenly textured with 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 baking large quantities of baked goods at one time.
Baking Tips
• Make sure the oven racks are in the desired positions before turning
the oven on.
DO NOT open the oven door frequently during baking. If you must
open the door, the best time is during the last quarter of the baking time.
• Bake to shortest time suggested and check for doneness before
adding more time. For baked goods, a stainless steel knife placed in the center of the product should come clean when done.
•Use the pan size and type recommended by the recipe to ensure
best results. Cakes, quick breads, muffins, and cookies should be

Roasting
CONV ROAST* (Convection Roast)
The convection element runs in conjuction with the inner and outer broil elements. The reversible convection fan runs at a higher speed in each direction. This transfer of heat (mainly from the convection element) seals moisture inside of large roasts. A time savings is gained over existing, single fan convection roast modes. Use this setting for whole turkeys, whole chickens, hams, etc.
*Note: This function uses a high-speed convection fan for optimum cooking performance. Some noise may be noticed from this high fan speed. This is normal.
Note: You can also roast foods using bake settings. See the “Baking” section for additional information.
Roasting Tips (cont.)
• When using a meat thermometer, insert the probe halfway into the center of the thickest portion of the meat. (For poultry insert the thermometer probe between the body and leg into the thickest part of the inner thigh.) The tip of the probe should not touch bone, fat, or gristle to ensure an accurate reading. Check the meat temperature halfway through the recommended roasting time. After reading the thermometer once, insert it the meat, then take a second reading. If the second temperature registers below the first, continue cooking the meat.
• Roasting times always vary according to the size, shape and quality of meats and poultry. Less tender cuts of meat are best prepared in the conventional bake setting and may require moist cooking techniques. Remove roasted meats from the oven when the thermometer registers 5° F (-15° C) to 10° F (-12° C) lower than the desired doneness. The meat will continue to cook after removal from the oven. Allow roasts to stand 15 to 20 minutes after roasting in order to make carving easier.

Roasting Tips
ALWAYS use the broiler pan and grid supplied with each oven. The
hot air must be allowed to circulate around the item being roasted. DO NOT cover what is being roasted. Convection roasting seals in juices quickly for a moist, tender product. Poultry will have a light, crispy skin and meats will be browned, not dry or burned. Cook meats and poultry directly from the refrigerator. There is no need for meat or
Operation
poultry to stand at room temperature.
• As a general rule, to convert conventional recipes to convection recipes, reduce the temperature by 25° F (-3.9° C) and the cooking time by approximately 10 to 15%.
ALWAYS roast meats fat side up in a shallow pan using a roasting rack. No basting is required when the fat side is up. DO NOT add water to the pan as this will cause a steamed effect. Roasting is a dry heat process.
• Poultry should be placed breast side up on a rack in a shallow pan. Brush poultry with melted butter, margarine, or oil before and during roasting.
• For convection roasting, DO NOT use pans with tall sides as this will interfere with the circulation of heated air over the food.
• If using a cooking bag, foil tent, or other cover, use the conventional bake setting rather than either convection setting.

Broiling
CONV BROIL* (Convection Broil)
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 peak temperatures on the food. Use this setting for broiling thick cuts of meats.
*Note: This function uses a high-speed convection fan for optimum cooking performance. Some noise may be noticed from this high fan speed. This is normal.
HI BROIL
Heat radiates from both broil elements, located in the top of the oven cavity, at full power. The distance between the foods and the broil elements determines broiling speed. For fast broiling, food may be as close as 2 inches (5 cm) to the broil element or on the top rack. Fast broiling is best for meats where rare to medium

doneness is desired. Use this setting for broiling small and average cuts of meat.
LOW BROIL
This mode uses only a fraction of the available power to the inner broil element for delicate top-browning. The inner broil element is on for only part of the time. Use this setting to gently brown meringue on racks 3 or 4 in 3-4 minutes.
Broiling Instructions
Broiling is a dry-heat cooking method using direct or radiant heat. It is used for small, individualized cuts such as steaks, chops, and patties. Broiling speed is determined by the distance between the food and the broil element. Choose the rack position based on desired results.
Conventional broiling (LOW, MED or HI BROIL) is most successful for cuts of meat 1-2 inches thick and is also more suitable for flat pieces of meat.
Convection broiling has the advantage of broiling food slightly quicker than conventional. Convection broiling of meats produces better results, especially for thick cuts. The meat sears on the outside and retains more juices and natural flavor inside with less shrinkage.
1. Arrange the oven rack in the desired position before turning
broiler on.
2. Center the food on cold broiler pan and grid supplied with your
oven. Place broiler pan in oven.
3. Set the oven function selector to desired broiling function and the
temperature control knob to “Broil”.
Operation
MED BROIL
Inner and outer broil elements pulse on and off to produce less heat for slow broiling. Allow about 4 inches (10 cm) between the top surface of the food and the broil element. Slow broiling is best for chicken and ham in order to broil food without over-browning it. Use this setting for broiling small and average cuts of meat.
4. Close the door. There is not a detent to hold the door in the open
broil stop position. With open door broiling the broil element does not cycle on and off. With closed door broiling the broil element might cycle on and off if an extended broiling time is required. A built-in smoke "eliminator" in the top of the oven helps reduce smoke and odors.

Broiling Tips
ALWAYS use a broiler pan and grid for broiling. They are designed to provide drainage of excess liquid and fat away from the cooking surface to help prevent splatter, smoke, and fire.
• To keep meat from curling, slit fatty edge.
• Brush chicken and fish with butter several times as they broil to prevent drying out. To prevent sticking, lightly grease broiler tray.
• Broil on first side for slightly more than half the recommended time, season, and turn. Season second side just before removing.
ALWAYS pull rack out to stop position before turning or
removing food.
• Use tongs or a spatula to turn meats. NEVER pierce meat with a fork, as this allows the juices to escape.
• Remove the broiler pan from the oven when you remove the food. Drippings will bake onto the pan if it is left in the heated oven after broiling. While pan is hot, place damp paper towel over grid. Drizzle with liquid dishwashing detergent and pour water over grid. This will make cleaning of the pan easier, or the broiler pan can be lined with aluminum foil to make cleaning easier. Be sure the foil extends up the side of the pan. Although it is not recommended, the grid can also be covered with foil. Be sure to slit openings to conform with the openings in the grid so melted fat can drain through to prevent spattering, smoking, or the possibility of grease fire.

Cleaning and Maintenance
Cleaning and Maintenance
Any piece of equipment works better and lasts longer when maintained properly and kept clean. Cooking equipment is no exception. Your range must be kept clean and maintained properly. Make sure all controls are in the “OFF” position.
Glass Ceramic Top
Cleaning of glass ceramic tops is different from cleaning a standard porcelain finish. To maintain and protect the surface of your new glass ceramic top, follow these basic steps:
For normal, light soil:
1. Rub a few drops of a glass ceramic cream to the cool soiled area
using a damp paper towel.
2. Wipe until all soil and cream are removed. Frequent cleaning
leaves a protective coating which is essential in preventing scratches and abrasions.
For heavy, burned soil:
1. Rub a few drops of glass ceramic cleaning cream to the cool soiled
area using a damp paper towel.
2. Carefully scrape remaining soil with a single-edged razor blade.
Hold the blade at a 30° angle against the ceramic surface.
3. If any soil remains, repeat the steps listed above. For additional
protection, after all soil has been removed, polish the entire surface with the cleaning cream.
4. Buff with a dry paper towel. As the cleaning cream cleans, it leaves
a protective coating on the glass surface. This coating helps to prevent build-up of mineral deposits (water spots) and will make future cleaning easier. Note: Dishwashing detergents remove this
protective coating and therefore make the glass ceramic top more susceptible to staining.
Cleaning Problems on Glass Ceramic Top
Problem
Brown streaks and specks
Blackened burned on spots
Fine brown/gray lines or fine scratches or abrasions which have collected soil
Cause To Prevent To Remove
Cleaning with sponge or cloth containing soil­laden detergent water.
Spatters or spillovers onto a hot cooking area or accidental melting of a plastic film, such as a bread bag.
Coarse particles (salt, sugar) can get caught on the bottom of cook­ware and become embedded into top.
Using abrasive cleaning materials.
Scratches from rough ceramic glass, or ceramic coated cookware.
Use cleaning cream with clean damp paper towel.
Wipe all spillovers as soon as it is safe and DO NOT put plastic items on a warm cooking area.
Wipe the bottom of cookware before cooking. Clean top daily with cleaning cream. DO NOT use ceramic or ceramic coated cookware.
Use a light application of cleaning cream with a clean damp paper towel.
Clean area with cleaning cream and a damp paper towel, non-abrasive nylon pad or scouring brush. If burn-on is not removed, cool cooktop, and carefully scrape area with a single­edged razor blade held at a 30° angle.
Fine scratches are not removable but can be minimized by daily use of cleaning cream.
Smearing or streaking
Use of too much cleaning cream or use of a soiled dishcloth.
Use a small amount of cream. Rinse throughly before drying. Use only paper towels or nylon scrub pad or brush.
Dampen paper towel with a mixture of vinegar and water and wipe surface. Wipe area with damp paper towel or lint free cloth.

Cleaning Problems on Glass Ceramic Top (cont.)
Problem
Metal markings silver/gray marks
Hard water spots
Pitting or flaking
Cause To Prevent To Remove
Sliding or scraping metal cookware on glass top.
Condensation from cooking may cause minerals found in water and acids to drip on glass top and cause gray deposits (the spots are often so thin they appear to be in the glass top).
Boil over of sugar syrup on glass top. This can cause pitting if not removed immediately.
DO NOT slide metal objects across top.
Make sure the bottom of cook­ware is dry before cooking.
Daily use of cleaning cream will help keep top free from hard water mineral deposits and food discoloration.
Watch sugar and syrups carefully to avoid boilovers.
Remove metal marks before the glass top is used again. Apply cleaning cream with a damp paper towel and scrub with a nylon scrub pad or brush. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
Mix cleaning creame with water and apply a thick paste to stained area. Scrub vigorously. If stain is not removed, reapply cleaner and repeat process. Also try cleaning procedure for smearing and streaking.
Turn element to LO; using several paper towels to wipe the spill immediately. Let glass top cool and carefully scrape off remainder of burn­off with a single­edged razor held at a 30° angle.
Cooktop Surfaces
Several different finishes have been used in your cooktop. Cleaning instructions for each surface are given below. NEVER USE AMMONIA, STEEL WOOL PADS OR ANY ABRASIVE CLOTHS AND MATERIALS SUCH AS CLEANSERS, OVEN CLEANERS, OR ABRASIVE POWDERS. THEY CAN PERMANENTLY DAMAGE YOUR COOKTOP.
Oven Surfaces
Several different finishes have been used in your electric oven. Cleaning instructions for each surface are given below. The oven features a self-clean cycle for the oven interior. See the “Self-Clean Cycle” section for complete instructions. NEVER USE AMMONIA, STEEL WOOL PADS OR ABRASIVE CLOTHS, CLEANSERS, OVEN CLEANERS, OR ABRASIVE POWDERS. THEY CAN PERMANENTLY DAMAGE YOUR OVEN.
Control Knobs
MAKE SURE ALL CONTROL KNOBS POINT TO THE “OFF” POSITION BEFORE REMOVING. Pull the knobs straight off. Wash in detergent and warm water. Dry completely and replace by pushing firmly onto stem.
Stainless Steel Parts
All stainless steel body parts should be wiped regularly with hot soapy water at the end of each cooling period and with a liquid cleaner designed for that material when soapy water will not do the job. DO NOT use steel wool, abrasive cloths, cleansers, or powders. If necessary, scrape stainless steel to remove encrusted materials, soak the area with hot towels to loosen the material, then use a wooden or nylon spatula or scraper. DO NOT use a metal knife, spatula, or any other metal tool to scrape stainless steel. DO NOT permit citrus or tomato juice to remain on stainless steel surface, as citric acid will permanently discolor stainless steel. Wipe up any spills immediately.
Control Panel
DO NOT use any cleaners containing ammonia, abrasives or stainless
steel cleaners on any surface that contains graphics. These products could remove the graphics from the control panel. Apply hot, soapy water to a soft clean cloth. DO NOT spray liquids directly onto the control panel.

Self-Clean Cycle
Brass Parts
All special ordered brass parts are coated with an epoxy coating.
To avoid the risk of property damage, DO NOT USE BRASS CLEANERS OR ABRASIVE CLEANERS ON ANY BRASS PARTS. All brass body parts should be wiped regularly with hot soapy water. When hot soapy water will not do the job, use every day household cleaners that are not abrasive.
Broiler Pan and Grid
Clean with detergent and hot water. For stubborn spots, use a soap-filled steel wool pad.
Oven Racks
Clean with detergent and hot water. Stubborn spots can be scoured with a soap-filled steel wool pad. DO NOT CLEAN THE OVEN RACKS OR RACK SUPPORT USING THE SELF-CLEAN CYCLE. They could sustain damage due to the extreme heat of the self-clean cycle.
Power Failure
No attempt should be made to operate the appliance during a power failure. Make sure the oven control is in the “OFF” position.
Momentary power failure can occur unnoticed. The range is affected only when the power is interrupted. When it comes back on, the range will function properly without any adjustments. A “brown-out” may or may not affect range operation, depending on how severe the power loss is. If the range is in the self-clean cycle when the power failure occurs, wait until power is restored and allow door to unlock automatically. Turn all controls off and restart self-clean cycle again, according to instructions.
This oven features an automatic pyrolytic self-cleaning cycle. During this cycle, the oven reaches elevated temperatures in order to burn off soil and deposits. An integral smoke eliminator helps reduce odors associated with the soil burn-off. A powder ash residue is left in the bottom of the oven after completion of the self-clean cycle. The door latch is automatically activated after selecting the self-clean setting. The latch ensures that the door cannot be opened while the oven interior is at clean temperatures.
Before starting the Self-Clean cycle:
1. Remove the oven racks, and any other items/utensils from the oven. The high heat generated during the cleaning cycle can discolor, warp, and damage these items. DO NOT use foil or liners in the oven. During the self-clean cycle foil can burn or melt and damage the oven surface.
2. Wipe off any large spills from the oven bottom and sides. NEVER use oven cleaners inside a self-cleaning oven or on raised portions of the door.
3. Some areas of the oven must be cleaned by hand before the cycle begins. Soils in these areas will be baked on and very difficult to clean if not removed first. Clean the door up to the gasket, the door frame, and up to 2 inches inside the frame with detergent and hot water. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
BURN OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Make sure all controls are OFF and oven is COOL before cleaning. Failure to do so can result in burns or electrical shock.
DO NOT touch the exterior portions of the oven after self-cleaning cycle has begun, since some parts become extremely hot to the touch! During the first few times the self-cleaning feature is used,

there may be some odor and smoking from the curing of the binder in the high-density insulation used in the oven. When the insulation is thoroughly cured, this odor will disappear. During subsequent self­cleaning cycles, you may sense an odor characteristic of high temperatures. Keep the kitchen well-vented during the self-cleaning cycle.

Self-Clean Cycle
To start the Self-Clean cycle:
1. Close the door completely.
Replacing Oven Lights
2. Turn the oven selector knob clockwise to the “SELF CLEAN” mode.
3. Turn the temperature control knob past the clean setting until the knob stops. At this time, the clean indicator light will come on. Within 30 seconds the automatic door latch engages and the oven indicator light comes on. The oven indicator light will remain on until the oven reaches the self-clean temperature and will then cycle on and off during the self-clean cycle. When the oven reaches the elevated temperature needed for self-clean, the door lock indicator light comes on.
4. The door lock indicator light will remain on until the self-clean is completed or interrupted and the oven temperature drops to a safe temperature. A complete cycle is approximately 3-1/2 hours with an additional 30 minutes needed for the oven to cool down enough for the door latch to disengage.
Note: A fan noise will be heard during the self-clean cycle and will continue to run for the 3-1/2 hour duration of the self-clean cycle.
5. When the cycle is completed, turn both the oven selector and temperature control knob to the “OFF” position. When the oven has completely cooled, open door and remove any ash from the oven surfaces with a damp cloth.
To stop the Self-Clean cycle:
To cancel or interrupt the self-cleaning cycle, turn both the temperature control knob and the oven function selector knob to “OFF”. When the oven temperature drops to a safe temperature, the automatic door latch will release and the oven door can be opened. When the oven has completely cooled, remove any ash from the oven surfaces with a damp sponge or cloth.
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Disconnect the electric power at the main fuse or circuit breaker before replacing bulb.
To avoid risk of personal injury, DO NOT touch bulb with bare hands. Clean off any signs of oil from the bulb and handle with a soft cloth.
1. Unsnap glass light cover using a screwdriver in the access groove.
2. Firmly grasp light bulb and pull out.
3. Replace with halogen bulb using volt and wattage requirements listed on glass cover.
4. Replace the light cover by snapping glass cover onto metal box.
5. Reconnect power at the main fuse or circuit breaker.
