INSTALLATION / USE & CARE
|
29
Professional restaurant chefs rely on a di erent type of heat
... infrared heat ... to create a higher searing temperature than
what standard burners can achieve. Viking Range, LLC provides
the ProSear™ infrared burner.
Infrared burners work by focusing the gas ame through a
ceramic element lled with tiny holes.
These holes focus the ame on the surface of the element,
creating an intense heat much higher than that of a standard
brass burner. It allows you to sear your food more quickly while
leaving the inside rare, if desired.
The ProSear™ burner, with its advanced components, requires
particular attention to lighting, usage and cleaning guidelines.
See INDEX: “ProSear™” for further details.
Pre-Heating the ProSear™ Burner
Always preheat the entire grill before cooking to achieve
consistent, successful results. (See INDEX: “Preheating” for
further details.)
If the grill is already hot from cooking you should still pre-heat
the ProSear™ burner for 2-3 minutes, or
until it glows red.
Never place food over a ProSear™ burner before it is fully pre-
heated because food particles and grease dripping onto a cold
ProSear™ burner can clog the tiny ports and damage the burner.
For the same reason you should minimize water spills on the
ProSear™ burner and should not use water to control are-
ups. Take special care to minimize dropping any liquids on the
ProSear™ burner while cleaning the cooking grids.
HOW TO SEAR
Searing locks in avor and juices while allowing the food’s outer
surface to absorb smoke and food-born aromas produced when
drippings are vaporized by the burner.
The result is a restaurant-style nish … crisp, avorful outside
with a tender, juicy inside.
While the brass burners in your grill are capable of producing
searing heat, the ProSear™ infrared burner is speci cally
designed for this purpose.

Grill cooking grids are heavy duty. Dropping them
on the ProSear™ Burner will damage the burner.
Such damage is not covered by the product war-
ranty and will cause a re, burns or other personal
injury.
ProSear™ CLEANING
It’s easy to keep your ProSear™ Burner operating at
peak performance. Just run it on “HI” with the hood
open for 15 minutes after each use to burn away
any food particles or drippings.
Any ash accumulation on the burner screen can be
removed with a light brush (like a paint brush) or
vacuum … BUT WAIT UNTIL THE BURNER IS COOL!
