WARNING
To prevent possible damage to cabinets
and cabinet finishes, use only materials
and finishes that will not discolor or
delaminate and will withstand temperatures
up to 194°F (90°C). Heat resistant
adhesive must be used if the product is to
be installed in laminated cabinetry. Check
with your builder or cabinet supplier to
make sure that the materials meet these
requirements.
A GFI
shall be used if required by NFPA-70 (National Electric Code), federal/state/local laws, or
local ordinances.
• The required use of a GFI is normally related to the location of a receptacle with respect to
any significant sources of water or moisture.
• Viking Range Corporation will NOT warranty any problems resulting from GFI outlets which
are not installed properly or do not meet the requirements below.
If the use of a GFI is required
, it should be:
• Of the receptacle type (breaker type or portable type NOT recommended)
• Used with permanent wiring only (temporary or portable wiring NOT recommended)
• On a dedicated circuit (no other receptacles, switches or loads in the circuit)
• Connected to a standard breaker of appropriate size (GFI breaker of the same size NOT
recommended)
• Rated for Class A (5 mA +/- 1 mA trip current) as per UL 943 standard
• In good condition and free from any loose-fitting gaskets (if applicable in outdoor situations)
• Protected from moisture (water, steam, high humidity) as much as reasonably possible

CAUTION
Burn hazard.
To avoid risk of personal injury;
the use of cabinets for storage
above the appliance may result
in a potential burn hazard. Combustible
items may ignite, metallic items may
become hot and cause burns. If a cabinet
storage is to be provided the risk can be
reduced by installing a rangehood that
projects horizontally a minimum 5”
(12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of cabinets.
CAUTION
To prevent possible damage to cabinets
and cabinet finishes, use only materials
and finishes that will not discolor or
delaminate and will withstand temperatures
up to 194°F (90°C). Heat and moisture
resistant adhesive must be used if the
product is to be installed in laminated
cabinetry. Check with your builder or
cabinet supplier to make sure that the
materials meet these requirements.
• This range may be installed directly
adjacent to existing 36” (91.4 cm) high
base cabinets.
IMPORTANT: The side trim MUST be
3/8” (.95 cm) above the adjacent base
cabinet countertop. This can be
accomplished by raising the unit using the
adjustment spindles on the legs.
• The range CANNOT be installed directly
adjacent to sidewalls, tall cabinets, tall
appliances, or other side vertical surfaces
above 36” (91.4 cm) high. There must be a
minimum of 6” (15.2 cm) sideclearance
from the range to such combustible
surfaces above the 36” (91.4 cm) counter
height.
• Within the 6” (15.2 cm) side clearance to
combustible vertical surfaces above 36”
(91.4 cm), the maximum wall cabinet
depth must be 13” (33.0 cm) and wall
cabinets within this 6” (15.2 cm) side
clearance must be 18” (45.7 cm) above the
36” (91.4 cm) high countertop.
• Wall cabinets above the range must be a
minimum of 42” (106.7 cm) above the
range cooking surface for the full width of
the range. This minimum height
requirement does not apply if a range
hood is installed over the cooking surface.
Note: Minimum clearance for back wall is 0” with
backguard or high-shelf.
Note: If a range hood is installed, wall cabinets
above the range have a different minimum
clearance height.

The bottom of a standard hood should be
30” (76.2 cm) min. to 36” (91.4 cm) max.
above the countertop. This would typically
result in the bottom of the hood being
66” (167.6 cm) to 72” (182.9 cm) above the
floor. Refer to the range hood installation
instructions for additional information. These
dimensions provide for safe and efficient

This product is manufactured with the
neutral terminal connected to the cabinet.
Use a 3-wire, agency approved, power
supply kit with closed loop terminals rated
per the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA
70-latest edition (See Rating chart below). If
local codes prohibit grounding through the
neutral, use a 4-wire, agency approved,
power supply kit with closed loop terminals
rated per the National Electrical Code,

need to be unobstructed and open to provide
proper airflow for optimal oven performance.
CAUTION
The cooling fan should be operating when
the unit is in operation. If you notice the
cooling fan is not operating or you observe
unusual or excessive noise coming from the
cooling fan, contact an authorized service
center before continuing operation. Failure to
do so can result in damage to the oven or
surrounding cabinets.
