Moving, Handling, and Unpacking
Remove and discard all packing materials,
including cardboard and tape on the outside and
inside of the range.
Remove the cardboard top pack containing the
burner heads, burner caps, grates, leveling legs
and anti-tip bracket from the top of the range.
DO NOT discard the anti-tip metal brackets (2)
supplied with the range. These are the anti-tip
devices and one must be installed with the unit.
Type 1 is a wall mount device which can be
used for all installation applications.
Type 2 is a floor mount device
which can be used for all
applications other than when
the range is installed on a
concrete sub-floor.
Important: The range MUST be
installed with one of the anti-tip

Refer to “Anti-tip Device
Installation” section for details on
installation.
Some stainless steel parts may have a plastic
protective wrap which must be peeled off. The
interior should be washed thoroughly with hot,
soapy water to remove film residues and any
dust or debris before being used, then rinsed
and wiped dry. Solutions stronger than soap
and water are rarely needed.
CAUTION
Avoid any damage to oven vents. The vents
need to be unobstructed and open to provide
proper airflow for optimal oven performance.
CAUTION
The cooling fan should be operating when
the unit is in operation. If you notice the
cooling fan is not operating or you observe
unusual or excessive noise coming from the
cooling fan, contact a Viking Authorized
Service Center before continuing operation.
Failure to do so can result in damage to the
oven or surrounding cabinets.
