Cooking Safety  
To minimize burns, ignition of flammable materials and spillage due  
to unintentional contact with the cookware, DO NOT extend  
handles over adjacent 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 children.  
ALWAYS place a pan on a surface element before turning it on.  
Be sure you know which knob controls which surface element. Make  
sure the correct element is turned on. When cooking is completed,  
turn element off before removing pan.  
NEVER leave a surface cooking operation unattended, especially  
when using a high heat setting or when deep fat frying. Boil overs  
cause smoking and greasy spillovers may ignite. Clean up greasy  
spills as soon as possible. DO NOT use high heat for extended  
cooking operations.  
NEVER heat an unopened container on the surface element.  
Pressure build-up may cause container to burst resulting in serious  
personal injury or damage to the appliance.  
Use dry, sturdy pot holders. Damp pot holders may cause burns  
from steam. Dishtowels or other substitutes should NEVER be used  
as pot holders because they can trail across hot surface elements  
and ignite or get caught on appliance parts.  
NEVER let a pan boil dry as this could damage the cookware and  
the appliance.  
This appliance has been tested for safe performance using  
conventional cookware. DO NOT use any devices or accessories  
that are not specifically recommended in this guide. DO NOT use  
eyelid covers for the surface units. 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.  
Use proper pan material. Refer to “Before Using Cooktop” section  
for recommended cookware. Proper relationship of cookware to  
surface unit will also improve efficiency.  
ALWAYS let quantities of hot fat used for deep fat frying cool  
before attempting to move or handle.  
Heating Elements and Glass Ceramic Cooking Surfaces  
DO NOT let cooking grease or other flammable materials  
accumulate in or near the appliance, hood, or vent fan. Clean hood  
frequently to prevent grease from accumulating on hood or filter.  
When flaming foods under the hood, TURN THE FAN OFF.  
NEVER wear garments made of flammable material or loose fitting  
or long-sleeved apparel while cooking. Clothing may ignite or catch  
on cookware handles.  
PREPARED FOOD WARNING: Follow food manufacturers  
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.  
NEVER touch the glass surface areas directly on or adjacent to the  
heating elements when the cooktop is in use.  
Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color.  
Areas near elements may be hot enough to cause burns.  
During and after use, DO NOT touch or let clothing or other  
flammable material contact surface of cooktop or areas near  
heating elements, until they have had sufficient time to cool.  
DO NOT COOK ON BROKEN COOKING SURFACE. If cooking  
surface should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may  
penetrate the broken cooking surface and create a risk of electric  
shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.  
If you are “flaming” liquor or other spirits under an exhaust, TURN  
THE FAN OFF. The draft could cause the flames to spread out of  
control.  
Cleaning Safety  
Turn off all controls and wait for appliance parts to cool before  
touching or cleaning them. DO NOT touch the surface elements or  
surrounding areas until they have had sufficient 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.  
Cookware Safety  
Use pans with flat bottoms and handles that are easily grasped and  
stay cool. Avoid using unstable, warped, easily tipped or loose-  
handled pans. Pans with heavy handles (especially small pans) could  
be unstable and tip easily. Pans that are heavy to move when filled  
with food may also be hazardous.  
Be sure cookware is large enough to properly contain food and  
avoid boil overs. Pan size is particularly important in deep fat frying.  
Pan should accommodate the volume of food that is to be added  
as well as the bubble action of fat.

Before Using Cooktop  
Radio Interference  
Ceramic Glass Cooktop  
This unit generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and,  
if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause  
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no  
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If  
this unit does cause harmful interference to radio or television  
reception, which can be determined by turning the unit off and on, the  
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of  
the following measures:  
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.  
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna  
Increase the distance between the unit and receiver  
Connect the unit into an outlet on a circuit different from that to  
which the receiver is connected.  
WARNING  
BURN OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK  
All Viking cookware is induction friendly, as are  
most other high-end brands of stainless  
HAZARD  
To avoid risk of injury or death, make sure all  
controls are OFF and surface is COOL before  
cleaning. Failure to do so can result in burns or electrical shock.

counterclockwise to the desired setting. The  
element will adjust the power output to maintain  
the desired heat setting. Some elements have a  
“Boost” feature. A boost of power is provided  
for 10 minutes and is used for quickly boiling  
water when the element is turned to HI. When  
finished boiling, turn the control knob to Med HI to maintain the boil or  
to a lower setting for steaming, warming, and simmering sauces.  
Remember to use the proper size cookware for the size element  
chosen. Smaller cookware should be used for smaller elements and  
larger cookware should be used for larger elements.  
Note: If ALL elements are turned to HI for a long period of time, the  
internal temperature inside the cooktop may rise, causing the cooktop  
to turn off.  
Note: Viking induction cooking uses high powered induction elements  
for faster cooking performance. Some noise may be noticed by the  
high powered induction elements. This is normal.

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.  
4. Buff with a dry paper towel. As the cleaning cream cleans, it leaves

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.
