Page 13: Surface Operation
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 significant effect on how high or low a flame is needed for simmering. For this reason, Viking range and rangetop burners are engineered with a Vari-Simmer setting. -
Page 14: Surface Cooking Tips
Surface Operation 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. -

Page 17: Using The Oven
Using the Oven 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 find other foods that are also prepared more consistently in conventional bake. -
Page 18: Bake (Dual Fuel Ranges)
Baking VDR/CVDR Dual Fuel Ranges BAKE (Two-Element Bake) Full power heat is radiated from the bake element in the bottom of the oven cavity and supplemental heat is radiated from the broil element. This function is recommended for single rack baking. Many cookbooks contain recipes to be cooked in the conventional manner. - Page 19 Baking 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.

Page 22: Roasting (Dual Fuel Ranges)
Roasting (VDR/CVDR Dual Fuel Models) CONV ROAST* (Convection Roast) The convection element runs in conjunction with the inner and outer broil elements. The reversible convection fan runs at a higher speed in each direction. This transfer of heat (mainly from the convection element) seals moisture inside of large roasts. A time savings is gained over existing, single fan convection roast modes. - Page 23 Roasting (VDR/CVDR Dual Fuel Models) Conventional Roasting Chart (when using the Bake or Convection Bake setting) Internal Time Food Weight Temp (min/lb) Temp BEEF Rib roast Rare 4 - 6 lbs 325˚ F (162.8˚ C) 140˚ F (60.0˚ C) Medium 4 - 6 lbs 325˚...

Page 25: Broiling (Vgr Ranges)
Broiling 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. -

Broiling VDR/CVDR Dual Fuel Ranges CONV BROIL (Convection Broil)* The top element operates at full power. This function is exactly the same as regular broiling with the additional benefit of air circulation by the motorized fan in the rear of the oven. Smoke is reduced since the airflow also reduces peak temperatures on the food. -
