Warnings
Cooking Safety
• To eliminate the hazard of reaching over hot surface burners, 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.
• ALWAYS place a pan on a surface burner before turning it on. Be sure you know which knob controls which surface burner. Make
sure the correct burner is turned on and that the burner has ignited. When cooking is completed, turn burner o before removing
pan to prevent exposure to burner ame.
• ALWAYS adjust surface burner ame so that it does not extend beyond the bottom edge of the pan. An excessive ame
is hazardous, wastes energy and may damage the appliance, pan or cabinets above the appliance. This is based on safety
considerations.
• 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.
• DO NOT heat unopened food containers, build up of pressure may cause the container to explode and result in injury.
• Use dry, sturdy pot-holders. Damp pot-holders may cause burns from steam. Dishtowels or other substitutes should NEVER be used
as potholders because they can trail across hot surface burners and ignite or get caught on appliance parts.
• ALWAYS let quantities of hot fat used for deep fat frying cool before attempting to move or handle.
• DO NOT let cooking grease or other ammable materials accumulate in or near the appliance, hood or vent fan. Clean hood
frequently to prevent grease from accumulating on hood or lter. When aming foods under the hood, turn the fan o .
• NEVER wear garments made of ammable material or loose tting or long-sleeved apparel while cooking. Clothing may ignite or
catch utensil handles. DO NOT drape towels or materials on oven door handles. These items could ignite and cause burns.
• ALWAYS place oven racks in the desired positions while oven is cool. Slide oven rack out to add or remove food, using dry, sturdy
potholders. ALWAYS avoid reaching into the oven to add or remove food. If a rack must be moved while hot, use a dry potholder.
• ALWAYS turn the oven o at the end of cooking.
• Use care when opening the oven door. Let hot air or steam escape before moving or replacing food.
• NEVER use aluminum foil to cover oven racks or oven bottom. This could result in risk of electric shock, re, or damage to the
appliance. Use foil only as directed in this guide.
• PREPARED FOOD WARNING: Follow food manufacturer’s instructions. If a plastic frozen food container and/or its cover distorts,
warps, or is otherwise damaged during cooking, immediately discard the food and its container. The food could be contaminated.
• If you are “ aming” liquor or other spirits under an exhaust, TURN THE FAN OFF. The draft could cause the ames to spread out of
control.
• Once the unit has been installed as outlined in the Installation Instructions, it is important that the fresh air supply is not obstructed.
The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed. Ensure that
the kitchen is well-ventilated. Keep natural venting holes open or install a mechanical ventilation device. Prolonged or intensive use
of the appliance may call for additional (such as opening a window) or more e ective ventilation (such as increasing the level of a
mechanical ventilation if present).
Utensil Safety
• Use pans with at bottoms and handles that are easily grasped and stay cool. Avoid using unstable, warped, easily tipped or loose-
handled pans. Also avoid using pans, especially small pans, with heavy handles as they could be unstable and easily tip. Pans that
are heavy to move when lled with food may also be hazardous.
• Be sure utensil is large enough to properly contain food and avoid boilovers. Pan size is particularly important in deep fat frying. Be
sure pan will accommodate the volume of food that is to be added as well as the bubble action of fat.
• To minimize burns, ignition of ammable materials and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, DO NOT extend
handles over adjacent surface burners. ALWAYS turn pan handles toward the side or back of the appliance, not out into the room
where they are easily hit or reached by small children.
• NEVER let a pan boil dry as this could damage the utensil and the appliance.
• Follow the manufacturer's directions when using oven cooking bags.
• Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic or glazed utensils are suitable for rangetop surface or oven usage without
breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Follow manufacturer's instructions when using glass.
• This appliance has been tested for safe performance using conventional cookware. DO NOT use any devices or accessories that
are not speci cally recommended in this guide. DO NOT use eyelid covers for the surface units, stovetop grills, or add-on oven
convection systems. The use of devices or accessories that are not expressly recommended in this manual can create serious safety
hazards, result in performance problems, and reduce the life of the components of the appliance.
• The ame of the burner should be adjusted to just cover the bottom of the pan or pot. Excessive burner setting may cause
scorching of adjacent counter-top surfaces, as well as the outside of the utensil. This is based on safety considerations.

Warnings
Burners
•NEVER touch oven bake and broil burner areas or interior surfaces of oven.
• Bake and broil burners may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near burners and interior surfaces of an oven may
become hot enough to cause burns.
• During and after use, DO NOT touch or let clothing or other ammable materials contact heating elements, areas near elements,
or interior surfaces of oven until they have had su cient 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.
Cleaning Safety
• Turn o all controls and wait for appliance parts to cool before touching or cleaning them. DO NOT touch the burner grates or
surrounding areas until they have had su cient time to cool.
• Clean appliance with caution. Use care to avoid steam burns if a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface. Some
cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
• 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 re. Keep oven free from grease buildup.
Important notice regarding pet birds:
NEVER keep pet birds in the kitchen or in rooms where the fumes from the kitchen could reach. Birds have a very sensitive
respiratory system. Fumes released due to overheated cooking oil, fat, margarine and overheated non-stick cookware may be
harmful.
About Your Appliance
• For proper oven performance and operation, DO NOT block or obstruct the oven vent duct located on the right side of the air
grille.
• Avoid touching oven vent area while oven is on and for several minutes after oven is turned o . When the oven is in use, the vent
and surrounding area become hot enough to cause burns. After oven is turned o , DO NOT touch the oven vent or surrounding
areas until they have had su cient time to cool.
• Other potentially hot surfaces include rangetop, areas facing the rangetop, oven vent, surfaces near the vent opening, oven door,
areas around the oven door and oven window.
•The misuse of oven doors (e.g. stepping, sitting, or leaning on them) can result in potential hazards and/or injuries.
Power Failure
If power failure occurs, the electric igniters will not work. 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 a ected 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 a ect range operation, depending on
how severe the power loss is.

Lighting Burners
All burners are ignited by electric ignition. There are no open- ame, “standing” pilots.
Surface Burners-Automatic Reignition
To light the surface burners, push and turn the appropriate control knob counter clockwise to any position.
This control is both a gas valve and an electric switch. Burners will ignite at any “ON” position with the
automatic re-ignition system. If the ame goes out for any reason, the burners will automatically reignite if
the gas is still owing. When gas is permitted to ow to the burners, the electric igniters start sparking. On all
surface igniters you should hear a “clicking” sound. If you do not, turn o the control and check that the unit is
plugged in and that the fuse or circuit breaker is not blown or tripped.
Within a few moments, enough gas will have traveled to the burner to light. When the burner lights, turn the burner control to
any position to adjust the ame size. Setting the proper ame height for the desired cooking process and selecting the correct
cooking vessel will result in superior cooking performance, while also saving time and energy.
Vari-Simmer™
Simmering is a cooking technique in which foods are cooked in hot liquids kept at or just barely below the boiling point of water.
Simmering ensures gentler treatment than boiling to prevent food from toughening and/or breaking up. The size of the pan
and the volume of food can have a signi cant e ect on how high or low a ame is needed for simmering. For this reason, Viking
range and rangetop burners are engineered with a Vari-Simmer setting. The Vari-Simmer setting is not just one simmer setting,
but provides a variable range of simmer settings. This variable range of simmer settings allows you to adjust the ame height to
achieve the best simmer depending on the type and quantity of food being simmered. It is this ability that makes the Vari-Simmer
setting the most accurate and trustworthy simmer on the market.

Surface Operation
Surface Cooking Tips
• Use low or medium ame heights when cooking in vessels that are poor conductors of heat, such as glass, ceramic, and cast-iron.
Reduce the ame height until it covers approximately 1/3 of the cooking vessel diameter. This will ensure more even heating
within the cooking vessel and reduce the likelihood of burning or scorching the food.
• Reduce the ame if it is extending beyond the bottom of the cooking vessel. A ame that extends along the sides of the vessel is
potentially dangerous, heats the utensil handle and kitchen instead of the food, and wastes energy.
• Reduce the ame height to the minimum level necessary to perform the desired cooking process. Remember that food cooks
just as quickly at a gentle boil as it does at a rolling boil. Maintaining a higher boil than is necessary wastes energy, cooks away
moisture, and causes a loss in food avor and nutrient level.
• The minimum pot or pan (vessel) diameter recommended is 6” (15 cm). Use of pots or pans as small as 4” (10 cm) is possible but
not recommended.

Cooking Vessels
Each cook has his or her own preference for the particular cooking vessels that are most appropriate for the type of cooking being
done. Any and all cooking vessels are suitable for use in the range and it is not necessary to replace your present domestic vessels
with commercial cookware. This is 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.
Note: When using big pots and/or high ames, it is recommended to use the front burners. There is more room in the front and
potential cleanup at rear of appliance due to staining or discoloration will be minimized.

Rack Positions
Each oven is equipped with three tilt-proof racks. 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.
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 nd other foods that are also prepared more consistently in conventional bake. It is recommended to use this
function for single-rack baking.
Convection Cooking Tips
Convection cooking is a cooking technique which utilizes fan-forced air to circulate throughout the entire oven cavity creating the
optimum cooking environment. Cooking with convection is intended when performing multi-rack baking and for heavier foods.
Below are some tips which will allow you to get the best results out of your oven when cooking with convection.
• As a general rule, to convert conventional recipes to convection recipes, reduce the temperature by 25°F (10°C) when using a
convection cooking function.
• 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.
• A major bene t 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, mu ns, rolls, and
frozen convenience foods.
• 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.

Baking
BAKE
(Natural Air ow Bake)
Full power heat is radiated from the U-shaped bake burners in the bottom of the
oven cavity and is circulated with natural air ow. This function is recommended for
single rack baking. Many cookbooks contain recipes to be cooked in the conventional
manner. Conventional baking is suitable for dishes that require a high temperature.
Use this setting for baking and casseroles.
To Use BAKE Function
1. Arrange the oven rack in the desired position before turning oven on.
2. Set the oven temperature control knob to desired temperature.
3. Close the door.
Convection Bake
Heat is radiated from the U- shaped bake burners in the bottom of the oven cavity.
The heated air is circulated by one motorized fan in the rear of the oven providing
a more even heat distribution. Multiple rack use is possible for the largest baking
job. When roasting, cool air is quickly replaced—searing meats on the outside and
retaining more juices and natural avor on the inside with less shrinkage. This even
circulation of air equalizes the temperature throughout the oven cavity and eliminates
the hot and cold spots found in conventional ovens.
To Use CONVECTION BAKE Function
1. Arrange the oven rack in the desired position before turning oven on.
2. Set the oven temperature control knob to desired temperature and turn on the
convection fan switch.
3. Close the door.
Baking Tips
• 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 done.
• Use the pan size and type recommended by the recipe to ensure best results. Cakes, quick breads, mu ns, and cookies should
be baked in shiny, re ective 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.
Pan Placement Tips
•When using large (15" x 13") at 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 the 3rd and 5th position for more consistent even baking.
• 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.

Broiling
BROIL (Infrared Broil)
The broil burner at the top of the oven heats the metal screen until it glows. Heat
radiates from the GourmetGlo™ infrared broiler located at the top of the oven cavity.
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.
CONVECTION BROIL (Infrared Convection Broil)
The top burner operates at full power. This function is exactly the same as regular
broiling with the additional bene t of air circulation by the motorized fan in the rear
of the oven. Smoke is reduced since the air ow also reduces peak temperatures on
the food. Use this setting for broiling thick cuts of meats.
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 is most successful for cuts of meat 1-2 inches thick and is also more suitable for at 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 avor inside with less
shrinkage.
To Use Broil or Convection Broil
1. Arrange the oven rack in the desired position before turning broiler on.
2. Center the food on cold broiler pan and grid. Place broiler pan in oven.
3. Set the oven temperature control knob to “Broil”. Turn on the convection fan switch if you wish to convection broil.
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 o . With closed door broiling the broil element might cycle on and o 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 re.
•To keep meat from curling, slit fatty edge.
• Brush chicken and sh with butter several times as they broil to prevent drying out. To prevent sticking, lightly grease broiler tray.
• Broil on rst 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.
16
Broiling
Rack Positions for Broiling
The broiler uses heat rays to help cook the food. Because these
rays travel only in straight lines, the e ective cooking area of the
broiler is reduced when using the higher rack position. At high-
rack positions, the rays cannot reach all corners of the broiler
grid, so larger pieces of meat might not broil su ciently at the
outer edges. The e ective cooking areas on the broiler grid for
each rack position is shown
Note: Position 6 is the closest to the broiler and position 1 is the
closest to the oven bottom.

Convection Dehydrate
Convection Dehydrate
This oven is designed not only to cook, but also to dehydrate fruits and vegetables. Warm air is circulated by a motorized fan in the
rear of the oven and 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 the
quality, so only fresh, top-quality foods should be used.
1. Prepare the food as recommended.
2. Arrange the food on drying racks (not included with the oven; contact a local store handling speciality cooking utensils).
3. Set the temperature control to 200°F (93.3°C) and turn on the convection fan switch.
Convection Defrost
Air is circulated by a motorized fan in the rear of the oven. The fan accelerates natural defrosting of the food without heat. To avoid
sickness and food waste, DO NOT allow defrosted food to remain in the oven for more than two hours.
1. Place the frozen food on a baking sheet.
2. Set the oven temperature control knob to “OFF” and turn on the convection fan switch.
Convection Defrost
CAUTION
To avoid sickness and food waste, DO NOT allow
defrosted food to remain in the oven for more than
two hours.
CAUTION
You must carefully check the food during the
dehydration process to ensure that it does not catch
re.
18
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. Before cleaning, make sure all controls are in the “OFF”
position. Disconnect power if you are going to clean thoroughly with water.
Open Surface Burners
Wipe up spill-overs as soon as possible after they occur and before they get a chance to burn in and cook solid. In the event of a
spill-over, follow these steps:
•Allow the burner and grate to cool to a safe temperature level.
•Lift o the burner grate. Wash in warm soapy water.
•If the spill is contained in the bowl of the grate support, just remove the bowl and clean in warm soapy water.
•Lift the grate support o .
•Wash these parts in hot, soapy water and rinse clean.
•If the spill has gone lower than the grate supports, draw out the drip pan and wash with hot, soapy water.
If ports on the burners are clogged, clean with a straight pin. DO NOT enlarge or distort the ports. DO NOT use a toothpick to clean
the ports. When replacing burner caps, carefully align the tabs underneath the cap with the outside edge of burner. Make sure
burner cap is level. Occasionally check the burner for proper size and shape. If ames lift o ports, are yellow, or are noisy when
turned on, you may need to clean the burners or call a quali ed technician for adjustment.
Burner Caps
The surface burner caps should be routinely removed and cleaned. ALWAYS clean the burner caps after a spill-over. Keeping the
burner caps clean will prevent improper ignition and uneven ames. To clean, pull burner cap straight up from the burner base.
Wipe o surface burner caps with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth after each use. Use a non-abrasive cleanser such as Bon
Ami™ and a soft brush or soft Scotch Brite™ pad for cooked-on foods. Dry thoroughly after cleaning. For best cleaning and to avoid
possible rusting, DO NOT clean in dishwasher or self-cleaning oven.
Control Panel
DO NOT use any cleaners containing ammonia or abrasives. They could remove the graphics from the control panel. Use hot,
soapy water and a soft clean cloth.
Oven Surfaces
Several di erent nishes have been used in your oven. NEVER USE AMMONIA, STEEL WOOL PADS OR ABRASIVE CLOTHS,
CLEANSERS, OR ABRASIVE POWDERS. THEY CAN PERMANENTLY DAMAGE YOUR OVEN. For non-self cleaning ovens, a fume free
oven cleaner can be used. Follow manufacturer’s directions.
Control Knobs
MAKE SURE ALL THE CONTROL KNOBS POINT TO THE OFF POSITION BEFORE REMOVING. Pull the knobs straight o . Wash in
detergent and warm water. Dry completely and replace by pushing rmly onto stem. DO NOT use any cleaners containing
ammonia or abrasives. They could remove the graphics from the knob.
Cleaning and Maintenance
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
19
Replacing Oven Lights
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.
Glass Surfaces
Clean with detergent and warm water. Glass cleaner can be used to remove ngerprints. If using glass cleaner ammonia, make
sure that it does not run down on exterior door surface.
Oven Racks
Clean with detergent and hot water. Stubborn spots can be scoured with a soap- lled steel wool pad.
