Before Using Range - Viking VGR7361 Use & Care Manual

Before Using Range

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. Before starting to cook, clean the range thoroughly with hot, soapy water. There may be some burn
off and odors on first use of the appliance—this is normal.
Oven
Important! Before first use, wipe interior with soapy water and dry thoroughly. Then set the oven selector to bake, the
thermostat to 450°F, and operate for an hour.
