General Information
Cookware
Each cook has his or her own preference for the
particular cookware that is most appropriate for
the type of cooking being done. This a matter
of personal choice. As with any cookware,
yours should be in good condition and free
from excessive dents on the bottom to provide
maximum performance and convenience. When
using big pots, it is recommended to use the
front elements. There is more room in the front
and potential cleanup of rear of appliance due to
staining or discoloration will be minimized.
Ceramic Glass Cooktop
All products are wiped clean with solvents at the
factory to remove any visible signs of dirt, oil,
and grease which may have remained from the
manufacturing process. Clean your glass top before
the first time you use it. A thorough cleaning with a
glass top cleaner is recommended.
Induction Cookware
Induction cooking utilizes magnetic power which
reacts with iron in the base of cookware, instantly
transforming the pot or pan into the heat source.
The heat stops when the cookware is removed.
Your cookware MUST have a magnetic layer of
steel for your induction cooktop to operate
properly. The cookware should have a flat, heavy
magnetic bottom and straight sides with a diameter
of 5” (13 cm) to 12” (31 cm) to accommodate
the various sized elements. The induction
cookware should be in good condition and free
from excessive dents on the bottom to provide
maximum performance and convenience.
All Viking cookware is induction friendly, as are
most other high-end brands of stainless steel and
enamel cookware. Most induction cookware will be
suitable for your induction cooktop if a magnet
adheres to the bottom surface.

Operation
Surface Indicator Lights
HOT HOT
The surface indicator lights are located at the front
of the glass cooktop. The indicator lights are used
to indicate activation, hot surface, and warnings.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Any piece of equipment works better and lasts
longer when maintained properly and kept clean.
Cooking equipment is no exception. Your cooktop
must be kept clean. 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:
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.
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.
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.
For normal, light soil:
1. Rub a few drops of a glass ceramic cleaning
cream on 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
on to cool, soiled area using a damp paper towel.
2. Carefully scrape remaining soil with a singleedged razor blade. Hold the blade at a 30˚ angle
against the ceramic surface.
3. If any soil remains, repeat the steps above.
For additional protection, after all soil has been
removed, polish the entire surface with the
cleaning cream.
© 2009 Viking Preferred Service
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.
