Getting Started
Getting Started
• Do not heat unopened food containers; build-up of pressure may cause the container to explode and result in injury.
• Always position oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact hot heating element in oven.
• Use care when opening oven door. Let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food. Hot air or steam can cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.
• Keep oven vents unobstructed. The oven vent is located at the front of the oven and vents into the room.
• Do not clean door gasket. It is essential for a good tight seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or move the gasket.
• No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating such as aluminum foil should be used in or around any part of the oven. Improper oven liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire. Keep oven free from grease buildup.
• Before self-cleaning the oven, remove broiler pan, broiler grid, oven racks, and other utensils. Do not use your oven to clean other parts. A fan noise should be heard during the cleaning cycle. If not, call service before self-cleaning again.
DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN. Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch or let clothing or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the oven may become hot enough to cause burns, such as the oven vent opening, the surface near the vent opening, and the oven door window.
• Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this manual. Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room. This is based on safety considerations.
• Your unit should be installed by a qualified technician. The appliance must be installed and electrically grounded according to local codes.
• Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of this appliance unless specifically recommended in this manual. All servicing should be referred to a qualified technician. Warranty service must be performed by an authorized service agency.
• Children should not be left alone in the kitchen while the oven is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to children over the unit. Children climbing to reach items could be seriously injured. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
• GREASE - Grease is flammable and should be handled carefully. Do not use water on grease fires. Flaming grease can be extinguished with baking soda or, if available, a multipurpose dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher. Let fat cool before attempting to handle it. Do not allow grease to collect around the oven or in vents. Wipe up spillovers immediately.
• Loose-fitting or hanging garments should never be worn while using the appliance. Do not drape towels or materials on oven door handles. These items could ignite and cause burns.
• Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on
hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot surface areas. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
• Keep area clean and free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable liquids. Never use your oven as a storage space. Combustible items (paper, plastic, etc.) may ignite, and metallic items may become hot and cause burns.

Bake
When using this function, full­power heat is radiated from the bake element in the bottom of the oven cavity, while supplemental heat is radiated from the broil element. This function is recommended for single-rack baking. Use this setting for baking, roasting, and casseroles.
Broil
This function is a dry-heat cooking method, using direct or radiant heat on three different settings: low, medium and high. The distance between the foods and the broil elements determines broiling speed. Thisfunction is recommended for small, individualized cuts, such as 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. 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 inthe
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.

Touch Pad Functions Touch Pad Functions
Convection Broil
Using this function, the top element operates at full power.Thisfunction 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 meat.
Convection Roast
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 this 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.

*Note: The AUTO-ROAST, PROOF, RECIPE and PROBE functions are included on the Premiere models.
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 anddeposits. 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 self-clean cycle. When the oven has cooled, remove any ash from oven surfaces with a damp sponge or cloth.
Auto Roast*
This function further simplifies roasting by automatically searing the outside of meats, raising the pre-set temperature by 100° F for a short time to sear the outside of the meat. The temperature then returns to the pre-set temperature in the standard convection roast mode.
Meat Probe*
The probe temperature function is used to automatically turn the oven off when the internal temperature of meat being cooked is reached.

Conventional broiling is most successful for cuts of meat one to two inches thick, and is also suitable for flat pieces of meat.
High Broil
With this setting, heat radiates at full power from both broil elements, located in the top of the oven cavity. The distance between the foods and the broil elements determines broiling speed. For fast broiling, place food as close as two inches from 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.
Medium Broil
With this setting, inner and outer broil elements pulse on and off to produce less heat for slow broiling. For slow broiling, allow about four inches between the top surface of your food and the broil element. Slow broiling is best for chicken and ham. Use this setting for broiling small and average cuts of meat.
Low Broil
This mode uses only a fraction of the oven’s available power to the inner broil element to produce delicate top-browning in only three to four minutes on items such as meringue.
To Use Broil:
1. Arrange the oven rack in the desired position before
turning the broiler on.
2. Place the food in the center of the cold broiler pan and grid supplied with your oven, and then place the broiler pan in the oven.
3. Select “UPPER OVEN” or “LOWER OVEN.”
4. Set the Oven Function Selector to “BROIL.” Display will show
“BROIL HIGH” and “ON” will flash. Medium and low displays will show “CONV BROIL M” and “CONV BROIL L.”
5. Choose power level for BROIL: a. For “HIGH BROIL,” press “SET.” b. For “MEDIUM BROIL,” press down arrow key once. Display
will change to MED, then press “SET.”
c. For “LOW BROIL,” press down arrow key twice. Display will
change to LO, then press “SET.”
6. Close the door to the oven. 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 will help reduce smoke and odors.
7. When cooking is complete, press the “OFF” button for the selected oven.
TruConvec™

The meat probe takes the guesswork out of roasting by cooking foods to the ideal internal temperature. The probe setting is used to automatically turn the oven off when meat reaches its optimal internal temperature. Your Viking oven’s built-in probe will help you prepare meats exactly as you want them.
Meat Probe Use and Care
• Use of probes other than the one provided with your oven may result in damage to the probe.
• Use the handles of the probe and plug when inserting and removing them from the meat and outlet.
• To avoid damaging your probe, never use tongs to pull on the cable when removing.
• To avoid breaking the probe, make sure food is completely defrosted before inserting.
• To prevent possible burns, do not unplug the probe from the outlet until the oven has cooled.
• Never leave the probe inside the oven during a self-cleaning cycle.
• Never store the probe inside the oven.
To Insert the Meat Probe:
After preparing the meat and placing it on the broiler pan, follow these steps for proper probe placement:
1. Lay the probe on the outside of the meat along the top or side and use your finger to mark where the edge of the meat meets the probe. The point where they meet should rest in the center of the thickest, meatiest part of the roast.
2. Insert the probe completely into the meat. It should not touch the bone, fat, or gristle.
• For roasts with no bone, insert the probe into the meatiest
part of the roast.
• For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe into the center
of the lowest large muscle or joint.
• With a whole turkey, insert the probe into the meatiest part
of the inner thigh from below and parallel to the leg.

Rack Positions
Each oven is equipped with tilt-proof racks and at least one TruGlide rack. (See chart below for number of TruGlide racks found in each oven.) With the TruGlide rack, the bottom section remains in the oven and the top section smoothly glides outward when pulled. This reduces the chances of spills and makes removing heavy items from the oven much easier. Below is a list of how many TruGlide racks are found in each oven. Please note that the TruGlide rack can be used in any of the six rack positions.
Select Single and Double Ovens – One TruGlide rack (upper oven only in double ovens)
Premiere Single Ovens – Two TruGlide racks
Premiere Double Ovens – Three TruGlide racks (two in upper
oven and one in lower oven)
All ovens have six rack positions. Position 6 is the farthest from the oven bottom. Position 1 is the closest to the oven bottom. The racks can be easily removed and arranged at various levels. For best results with conventional baking, do not use more than one rack at a time. It is also recommended, when using two racks, to bake with the racks in positions 2 and 4 or positions 3 and 5.
1. Arrange the oven racks in the desired positions BEFORE
heating the oven. If cooking on two racks at the same time, use rack positions 2 and 4 or positions 3 and 5.
2. Turn the Oven Function selector to desired function. Cooking
starts immediately and stops when the Oven Function selector is turned to OFF.
3. Set the Temperature Control to the desired temperature.
4. Place food in the oven after the Oven indicator light goes out.

Cooking Tips
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 preheat mode is not recommended. The Viking Rapid Ready™ Preheat System is engineered so that 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.
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 (180ºC) in TRUCONVEC mode when compared to the amount of time it takes to preheat to 350°F (180ºC) in CONVENTIONAL BAKE mode.
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.
Note: While preheating, display will alternate between PREHEAT and FUNCTION and TEMPERATURE selected.
Note: PREHEAT is the only cycle where actual temperature is displayed, otherwise the display shows set temperature.
Note: Certain functions include a PREHEAT cycle. Once set temperature has been reached, the oven will automatically exit PREHEAT and follow NORMAL OPERATION mode.

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, we recommend using one of the convection modes and the 2nd and 4th position or the 3rd and 5th position 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 Mode. 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.
Baking Tips
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. You may find that other foods also turn out best when cooked in Conventional Bake Mode.
• 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%.
• Some recipes 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 you achieve the results you are looking for.
• Make sure the oven racks are in the desired position before you turn on the oven.
• Do not open the door frequently during baking. Look through the door window to check doneness whenever possible. If you must open the door, the best time is during the last quarter of the baking time.
• Bake to the 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 out clean when the baked item is done.
• Use the pan size and type recommended by the recipe to ensure best results. Cakes, quick breads, muffins, and cookies should be baked in shiny, reflective pans for light, golden crusts. Avoid the use of old, darkened pans. Warped, dented, stainless steel and tin-coated pans heat unevenly and will not give uniform baking results.
Multiple Rack Baking
One major benefit of convection cooking is the ability to prepare foods in larger quantities. The uniform air circulation makes this possible. Foods that can be prepared on two or three racks at the same time include: pizza, cakes, cookies, biscuits, muffins, rolls, and frozen convenience foods.
For three-rack baking, use any combination of rack positions two, three, four, and five. For two-rack baking, use rack positions two and four or positions three and five. Remember that the racks are numbered from bottom to top.

COMMON BAKING PROBLEMS AND REMEDIES
Cooking Tips
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 edges.
• 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 then turn. Season the second side just before removing from the oven.
• Always pull the 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. Otherwise, drippings will bake onto the pan.
• While the pan is hot, place a damp paper towel over the
grid. Drizzle with liquid dishwashing detergent and pour water over the grid. This will make cleaning easier.
• You can also line the broiler pan with aluminum foil to
make cleaning easier. Be sure the foil extends up the side of the pan.
• Although it isn’t recommended, the grid can also be covered
with foil. Be sure to slit openings to conform with the openings in the grid so that melted fat can drain through. This will prevent spattering, smoking, or the possibility of grease fire.

Roasting Tips
• Always use the broiler pan and grid supplied with each oven,
because 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 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.
• 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.) To ensure an accurate reading, the tip of the probe should not touch bone, fat, or gristle.
• Check themeattemperature halfway through the recommended
roasting time.
• After reading the thermometer once, insert it 1¼ to 2 inches
(1.3 cm) further into 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 (-12.2°C) lower than the desired doneness. This is because the meat will continue to cook after removal from the oven.
• Allow roasts to stand 15 to 20 minutes after taking them out of
the oven to make carving easier.
• If using a cooking bag, foil tent, or other cover, use the
conventional bake setting rather than either convection setting.

Cleaning Recommendation
Meat Probe
• Cool the probe before cleaning.
• The meat probe may be cleaned with soap and water or with a soap-filled scouring pad.
• Scour stubborn spots with the soap-filled scouring pad. Rinse and dry.
• Do not immerse the meat probe in water.
• Do not store the probe inside the oven.
Oven Control
Panel
• The panel and its individual TouchSensor™ panels should be cleaned regularly.
• Wipe clean with a soft cloth and any glass cleaner or mild detergent.
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 steel when soapy water will not do the job.
• Do not use steel wool, abrasive cloths, cleansers, or powders.
• If necessary, soak the area with hot towels to loosen encrusted 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 any stainless steel surface, because citric acid will permanently discolor stainless steel. Wipe up any spills.
CAUTION
All special ordered brass parts are coated with an epoxy coating. DO NOT USE BRASS CLEANERS OR ABRASIVECLEANERS 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.

Cleaning and Maintenance
Cleaning the Interior Oven
Your Viking oven features an automatic, 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 Self­Clean setting. The latch ensures that the door cannot be opened while the oven interior is at clean temperatures.
Before Using the Self-Clean Cycle:
• 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.
• 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 oven door.
• 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 two inches inside the frame with detergent and hot water. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
• Clean only the parts listed in this manual.
Using the Self-Clean Cycle
1. Close the door completely.
2. Select “UPPER OVEN” or “LOWER OVEN.” “SELECT
MODE” will appear in the display for the selected oven.
3. Press “SELF CLEAN” from the oven function control panel.
4. Press “SET” or “ENTER.” At this time, “SELF CLEAN” will
appear in the display. 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 takes 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 whirring fan noise will be heard during the Self­Clean Cycle and will continue to run for the 3 1/2 hour duration of the Self-Clean Cycle.
5. The timer will count down from 4 hours. When the cycle is completed, press the “OFF” button for the selected oven.
6. When the oven has completely cooled, open the door and remove any ash from the oven surfaces with a damp cloth.
7. To cancel or interrupt the self-cleaning cycle, press the “OFF” button for the selected oven.
Cleaning and Maintenance
CAUTION
Do not touch the exterior portions ofthe oven after self-cleaning cycle has begun, since some parts become extremely hot to the touch! During the first few times the self-cleaningfeature 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 self-cleaning cycles, you may sense an odor characteristic of high temperatures. Keep the kitchen well­vented during the self-cleaning cycle.
WARNING
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.
