POWER FAILURE
If power failure occurs, the electric igniters will not work. No attempt should be made to operate the appliance during a
power failure.
Momentary power failure can occur unnoticed. The cooktop is affected only when the power is interrupted. When it
comes back on, the cooktop will function properly without any adjustments.
WARNING
BURN OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
To avoid risk of injury or death, make sure
all controls are OFF and COOL before
cleaning. Failure to do so can result in
burns or electrical shock.

Before Using Cooktop

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.
All models include:
• Automatic electric spark ignition/re-ignition burners light at any position on the knob
and re-light if extinguished.
•Removable knobs, grates, burner ports/caps.
•Permanently sealed burners—spills cannot enter burner box.

Cookware

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 cookware, including Viking
cookware, is suitable for use. This is a matter of personal choice. As with any cookware,
yours should be in good condition and free from excessive dents on the bottom to
provide maximum performance and convenience.
Note: When using big pots and/or high fl ames, it is recommended to use the front
burners. There is more room in the front and potential cleanup at rear of appliance due
to staining or discoloration will be minimized.
KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
BURN HAZARD
To avoid risk of injury, DO NOT touch the
glass. The cooktop will get hot during usage
