Viking Electric Rangetops/Ranges, F1484D manual Replacing Interior Oven Lights, Power Failure

This range features an automatic pyrolytic self-cleaning cycle. During this cycle, the oven reaches elevated tempertures in order to burn off soil and deposits. An integral smoke eliminator helps reduce odors associated with the soil burn-off. A powder ash residue is left in the bottom of the oven after completion of the self-clean cycle. The door latch is automatically activated after selecting the self-clean setting. The latch ensures that the door cannot be opened while the oven interior is at clean temperatures.

WARNING: Do not use commercial oven cleaners inside the oven. Use of these cleaners can produce hazardous fumes or can damage the porcelain finishes. Do not line the oven with aluminum foil or other materials. These items can melt or burn during a self-clean cycle, causing permanent damage to the oven.

Before starting the Self-Clean cycle:

1.Remove the oven racks, rack supports, and any other items/utensils from the oven. The high heat generated during the cleaning cycle can discolor, warp, and damage these items. Do not use foil or liners in the oven. During the Self-Clean cycle, foil can burn or melt and damage the oven surface.

2.Wipe off any large spills from the oven bottom and sides. Never use oven cleaners inside a self-cleaning oven or on raised portions of the door.

3.Some areas of the oven must be cleaned by hand before the cycle begins. Soil in these areas will be baked on and very difficult to clean if not removed first. Clean the door up to the gasket, the door frame, and up to two inches inside the frame with detergent and hot water. Rinse thoroughly and dry.

To start the Self-Clean cycle:

1.Close the oven door completely.

2.Turn the Oven Function selector know clockwise to the self-clean mode. At this time the clean indicator light will come on.

3.Turn the Temperature Control knob past the clean setting until the knob stops. At this time, the temperature indicator light will come on and within 30 seconds, the automatic door latch engages. The temperature indicator light will remain on until the oven reaches the self-clean temperature and will then cycle on and off during the cycle.

4.The cleaning cycle will last approximately 3 1/2 hours with an additional 30 minutes needed for the oven to cool down enough for the door latch to disengage.

5.When the cycle is completed, turn both the Oven Function selector and the Temperature Control knob to ”OFF” At this time the clean indicator light will go off.

6.When the oven has completely cooled, open door and remove any ash from the oven surfaces with a damp cloth.

To stop the Self-clean cycle:

To cancel or interrupt the self-cleaning cycle, turn both the Temperature Control knob and Oven Function selector to “OFF”. When the oven temperature drops to a safe temperature, the automatic door latch will release and the oven door can be opened.
