Power Failure - Viking VGRT302 Use & Care Manual

To disassemble for thorough cleaning, remove parts after they have
cooled in the following order:
1. Grill grates
2. Smoke generator
plates
3. Grill frame
4. Grill burner shield
5. Heat deflector
shields
Clean greasy parts with a household grease solvent such as household
ammonia and water. If necessary, a soap filled steel wool pad can be
used on the grill frame shield, grill burner, and grill heat deflector.
After using the grill, always remove the drip pan located below it by
pulling the drip pan toward you. The drip pan needs to be celeaned after
each use of the griddle. Cooked-off grease will drain from the griddle
through the drain tube and accumulate in the drip pan. Wash in hot
soapy water or with an antibacterial cleaner. The drip pan needs to be
cleaned after each use. If grease is permitted to accumulate, fire hazard
could occur, since the grill burners are directly above the pan.
Control Knobs
MAKE SURE THE CONTROL KNOBS POINT TO THE OFF POSITION
BEFORE REMOVING. Pull the knobs straight off. Wash in detergent and
warm water. Do not soak knobs. Dry completely and replace by pushing
firmly onto stem. DO NOT USE any cleaners containing ammonia or
abrasives. They could remove the graphics from the knob.

Do Not Remove)

Control Panel
DO NOT USE any cleaners containing ammonia or abrasives. They could
remove the graphics from the control panel. Use hot, soapy water and a
soft clean cloth.
Stainless Steel Parts
All stainless steel parts should be wiped regularly with hot, soapy water
at the end of each cooling period and with liquid stainless steel cleaner
when soapy water will not do the job. Do not use steel wool, abrasive
cloths, abrasive cleaners, or powders. If necessary to scrap stainless steel
to remove encrusted materials, soak the area with hot towels to loosen
the material, then use a wooden or nylon spatula or scraper. Do not use
a metal knife, spatula, or any other metal tool to scrape stainless steel.
For occasional heavy cleaning use, a cleaner such as Liquid Zud can be
used according to package directions. Do not permit citrus or tomato
juice to remain on stainless steel surface, as citric acid will permanently
discolor stainless steel. Wipe up any spills immediately.
Brass Parts
CAUTION: All brass special ordered parts are coated with an epoxy
coating. DO NOT USE BRASS OR ABRASIVE CLEANERS ON THE BRASS
OPTION PARTS. All brass parts should be wiped regularly with hot soapy
water.

Power Failure

If power failure occurs, the electric ignitors will not work. The rangetop
surface burners can still be used, but only when the burners are lit
manually with a match. The griddle cannot be used at all.
Due to safety considerations and the possibility of personal injury in
attempting to light and extinguish the burner, the grill should, under no
circumstances, be used during a power failure. The grill burner control
should always remain in the "OFF" position during a power failure.
Momentary power failure can occur unnoticed. The rangetop is affected
only when the power is interrupted. When it comes back on, the
rangetop will function properly without any adjustments. A "brown-out"
may or may not affect range operation, depending on how severe the
power loss is.
