Operation

Surface Operation

Rear and Front Elements Push in and turn the control knob

counterclockwise to the desired setting. The element will adjust the power output to maintain the desired heat setting. The left front burner has

a “Boost” feature. A boost of power is provided for 10 minutes and is used for quickly boiling

water when the element is turned to HI. When

finished boiling, turn the control knob to Med HI to maintain the boil or to a lower setting for steaming, warming, and simmering sauces.

Note: Viking induction cooking uses high powered induction elements for faster cooking performance. Some noise may be noticed by the high powered induction elements. This is normal.

CAUTION

Do not heat empty cookware or let cookware boil dry. The cookware can absorb an excessive amount of heat very quickly, resulting in possible damage to the cookware and ceramic glass.

Surface Indicator Lights

The surface indicator lights are located at the front of the glass cooktop. The

indicator lights are used to indicate activation, hot surface, and warnings.

Indicator Light	Reason
Solid	The element is ON and sensing the proper
	cookware.

Slow continuous flash	1. Element is OFF - hot surface.
without a pause	2. Element is ON - cookware is not present or
	cookware is not induction cookware. (See
	recommended cookware in “Before Using
	Cooktop” section.)
Fast continuous flash	The element is ON - surface temperature is very
without a pause	hot. The power level is regulated to a lower
	temperature setting as the internal temperature
	inside the cooktop has increased due to
	extended use.

Note: If the indicator lights have a 2 to 3 second pause in between flashes, refer to the “Troubleshooting” section.

Surface Cooking Tips

•The minimum pot or pan diameter recommended is 5” (13 cm). Use of pots or pans as small as 4” (10 cm) is possible but not recommended.

•Remember to use the proper size cookware for the size element chosen. Smaller cookware should be used for smaller elements and larger cookware should be used for larger elements.

Note: If ALL elements are turned to HI for a long period of time, the internal temperature inside the cooktop may rise, causing the cooktop to turn off.

	Surface Heat Settings
Heat Setting		Use
Simmer		Melting small quantities
		Steaming rice
		Simmering sauces

Low		Melting large quantities
Med Low		Low-temperature frying (eggs, etc.)
		Simmering large quantities
		Heating milk, cream sauces, gravies,
		and puddings

Med		Sautéing and browning, braising, and
		pan-frying
		Maintaining slow boil on large quantities	Operation
High		Boiling water quickly	Operation
Med High		High-temperature frying
		Pan broiling
		Maintaining fast boil on large quantities
		Deep-fat frying in large cookware

Note: The above information is given as a guide only. You may need to vary the heat settings to suit your personal requirements.

Remember that induction cooking is instantaneous and boiling time is decreased when using the proper induction cookware.
