To prevent possible damage to cabinets
and cabinet finishes, use only materials
and finishes that will not discolor or
delaminate and will withstand temperatures
up to 194°F (90°C). Heat resistant
adhesive must be used if the product is to
be installed in laminated cabinetry. Check
with your builder or cabinet supplier to
make sure that the materials meet these
requirements.
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
Avoid any damage to oven vents. The vents
need to be unobstructed and open to provide
proper airflow for optimal oven performance.
The cooling fan should be operating when
the unit is in operation. If you notice the
cooling fan is not operating or you observe
unusual or excessive noise coming from the
cooling fan, contact a Viking Authorized
Service Center before continuing operation.
Failure to do so can result in damage to the
oven or surrounding cabinets.
