!WARNING
WARNING - Help Prevent Tragedies
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of
the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still
dangerous - even if they sit out for "just a few hours".
If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator, please
follow the instructions below to help prevent
accidents.
Before you throw away your old refrigerator or
freezer:
• Take off the doors or remove the drawers.
• Leave the shelves in place so children may not
easily climb inside.
!WARNING
WARNING - Dispose of the plastic bags which can
be a suffocation hazard.
!WARNING
EXCESSIVE WEIGHT HAZARD
Use two or more people to move product.
Failure to do so can result in personal injury.
Remove Interior Packaging
Your appliance has been packed for shipment with all parts
that could be damaged by movement securely fastened.
Remove internal packing materials and any tape holding
internal components in place. The owners manual is
shipped inside the product in a plastic bag along with the
warranty registration card, and other accessory items.
Important
Keep your carton and packaging until your appliance
has been thoroughly inspected and found to be in good
condition. If there is damage, the packaging will be needed
as proof of damage in transit. Afterwards please dispose of
all items responsibly.
Note to Customer
This merchandise was carefully packed and thoroughly
inspected before leaving our plant. Responsibility for its
safe delivery was assumed by the retailer upon acceptance
of the shipment. Claims for loss or damage sustained in
transit must be made to the retailer.
DO NOT RETURN DAMAGED MERCHANDISE TO THE
MANUFACTURER - FILE THE CLAIM WITH THE
RETAILER.
If the appliance was shipped, handled, or stored in other
than an upright position for any period of time, allow the
appliance to sit upright for a period of at least 24 hours
before plugging in. This will assure oil returns to the
compressor. Plugging the appliance in immediately may
cause damage to internal parts.
Figure 1
It is important you send in your warranty registration card
immediately after taking delivery of your appliance or you

!CAUTION
Select Location
The proper location will ensure peak performance of your
appliance. We recommend a location where the unit will
be out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources. To
ensure your product performs to specifications, the recom-
mended installation location temperature range is from 55
to 100°F (13 to 38°C).
Cabinet Clearance
Ventilation is required from the bottom front of the appli-
ance. Keep this area open and clear of any obstructions.
Adjacent cabinets and counter top can be installed around
the appliance as long as the front grille remains unob-
structed. All Professional models with articulated hinges are
intended for built-in applications only.
Front Grille
Do not obstruct the front grille. The openings within the
front grille allow air to flow through the condenser heat ex-
changer. Restrictions to this air flow will result in increased
energy usage and loss of cooling capacity. For this reason
it is important this area to not be obstructed and the grille
openings kept clean. Viking Range, LLC does not recom-
mend the use of a custom made grille as air flow may be
restricted. (See Figure 2).
INSTALLING YOUR APPLIANCE

Front Leveling
Legs
Front Grille,
keep this area
open.
Leveling Legs
Adjustable legs at the front and rear corners of the appli-
ance should be set so the unit is firmly positioned on the
floor and level from side to side and front to back. The
overall height of your appliance may be adjusted higher (by
turning the leveling leg out, CCW) and lower (by turning the
leveling leg in, CW) dimensions as shown in Table "A".
To adjust the leveling legs, place the appliance on a solid
surface and protect the floor beneath the legs to avoid
scratching the floor. With the assistance of another person,
lean the appliance back to access the front leveling legs.
Raise or lower the legs to the required dimension by turning
the legs. Repeat this process for the rear by tilting the appli-
ance forward using caution. On a level surface check the
appliance for levelness and adjust accordingly.
The front grille screws may be loosened and the grille ad-
justed to the desired height. When adjustment is complete
tighten the two front grille screws. (See Figure 5).

Electrical Shock Hazard
• Do not use an extension cord with this appliance.
They can be hazardous and can degrade product
performance.
• This appliance should not, under any circumstanc-
es, be installed to an un-grounded electrical supply.
• Do not remove the grounding prong from the power
cord. (See Figure 3).
• Do not use an adapter. (See Figure 4).
• Do not splash or spray water from a hose on the
appliance. Doing so may cause an electrical shock,
which may result in severe injury or death.
!WARNING
Front grille
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI) are prone to nui-
sance tripping which will cause the appliance to shut down.
GFCI’s are generally not used on circuits with power equip-
ment that must run unattended for long periods of time, un-
less required to meet local building codes and ordinances.
Electrical Connection
A grounded 115 volt, 15 amp dedicated circuit is required.
This product is factory equipped with a power supply
cord that has a three-pronged, grounded plug. It must be
plugged into a mating grounding type receptacle in accor-
dance with the National Electrical Code and applicable lo-
cal codes and ordinances (see Figure 6). If the circuit does
not have a grounding type receptacle, it is the responsibility
and obligation of the customer to provide the proper power
supply. The third ground prong should not, under any cir-
cumstances, be cut or removed.

* Depth dimension of rough-in opening may vary depending on each individual installation. To recess entire door "F" di-
mension plus 1" (2.5 cm) for thickness of power cord plug is required.
** Minimum rough-in opening required is to be larger than the adjusted height of the cabinet.
Figure 10
Figure 10a
If necessary to gain clearance inside the rough-in
opening a hole can be cut through the adjacent cabi-
net and the power cord routed through this hole to a
power outlet. Another way to increase the available
opening depth is to recess the power outlet into the
rear wall to gain the thickness of the power cord plug.
Not all recessed outlet boxes will work for this applica-
tion as they are too narrow, but a recessed outlet box
equivalent to Arlington #DVFR1W is recommended
for this application, (see Figure 11).
