Viking induction cooktops are available as all-induction or induction / radiant models, which feature Quick-Cook™ electric surface elements in addition to induction power generators. And the standard 30” and 36” wide sizes fit easily into your existing counter space.
INSTALLLATION PROXIMITY TO SIDE CABINET IMPORTANT: The electronic components for the induction elements in the cooktop need some air circulation. To ensure long life of electronic components, it is required that a minimal amount of open space remain between the bottom of the cooktop and any shelf underneath.

Cooking Utensils for Radiant Elements Each cook has his or her own preference for the particular cooking utensils that are most appropriate for the type of cooking being done. Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for glass cooktop use without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.

Surface Cooking Operating the Single Front or Rear Element Push in an turn the corresponding control knob counterclockwise to the desired setting. The element will cycle on and off to maintain the desired heat setting. When finished, turn all controls OFF. Operating the Rear and Bridge Element Push in and turn the corresponding control knob clock wise to desired setting.
VCC105-4B To gain access to service or replace the components remove the glass top. There are two screws (A) on each side of the cooktop. To prevent disconnecting the component wiring lift up the glass top at the end away from the control panel.
VCCU165-6B To gain access to service or replace the components remove the glass top. There are three screws (B) on each side of the cooktop. To prevent disconnecting the component wiring, lift up the glass top at the end away from the control panel.

COIL TRAY REMOVAL STEP 2 Unscrew coil wires. CAUTION: BE CAREFUL TO CAPTURE THE SCREW AND LOCKWASHER, DO NOT LET THEM FALL INTO THE UNIT, AS THEY COULD CAUSE A SHORT LATER. The coil wire for the front coil connects to the TP4 (L) on the left.
POWER BOARD RECOGINITION The HPS (TP3) high voltage board is easily identified by the fact that the two capacitors run in a parallel direction to the small heat-sink device. Conversely, on the LPS (TP4) low voltage board the two capacitors run perpendicular to the small heat-sink device. Front coil is operated by the LPS (TP4) board.
RIBBON CONNECTOR DESIGNATIONS The longer of the two cables from the LPS plugs into the 14-pin connector with the designator JF. The shorter of the two cables from the HPS plugs into the 14-pin connector with the designator JR POTENTIOMETER CABLE DESIGNATIONS Potentiometer wires are plugged into the male quick-disconnects located on the EMI board and clearly marked as shown in the figure below left.
LED INDICATOR REPLACEMENT DESIGNATION Detail showing wire soldered to the PCB that supports the two LEDs. PBC is tied to and L-bracket mounted to the front of the cooktop. The opposite wire ends connect to the male quick-disconnects located and clearly identified on the EMI board. Because LEDs have polarity, the RED and BLACK wire MUST be placed in their appropriate slots.
