For this r ason, Viking cooktop burn rs ar ngin r d with a Vari-
Simm r™ s tting. Th Vari-Simm r s tting is not just on simm r s tting,
but provid s a variabl rang of simm rs s ttings. This variabl rang of
simm rs s ttings allows you to adjust th flam h ight to achi v th b st
simm r d p nding on th typ and quantity of food b ing simm r d. It is
this ability that mak s th Vari-Simm r™ s tting th most accurat and
trustworthy simm r on th mark t.
Surfac Cooking Tips
• Th simm r marking on th control pan l is th b ginning of th
variabl simm r s tting and produc s a high simm r s tting. Turn th
knob slowly towards “OFF” and th flam will adjust to a low r simm r
s tting.
• Us low or m dium flam h ights wh n cooking in cookwar that ar
poor conductors of h at, such as glass, c ramic, and cast iron. R duc
th flam h ight until it cov rs approximat ly 1/3 of th cookwar
diam t r. This will nsur mor v n h ating within th cookwar and
r duc th lik lihood of burning or scorching th food.
• R duc th flam if it is xt nd d b yond th bottom of th cookwar .
A flam that xt nds along th sid s of th cookwar is pot ntially
dang rous, h ats th cookwar handl and kitch n inst ad of th food,
and wast s n rgy.
• R duc th flam h ight to th minimum l v l n c ssary to p rform th
d sir d cooking proc ss. R m mb r that food cooks just as quickly at a
g ntl boil as it do s at a rolling boil. Maintaining a high r boil than is
n c ssary caus s a loss in food flavor and nutri nts.
Surfac H at S ttings*

Lighting Burn rs
All burn rs ar ignit d by l ctric ignition. Th r
ar no op n-flam , “standing” pilots.
Surfac Burn rs - El ctronic Saf ty
Ignition/R -ignition Syst m (ESIRS)
To light th surfac burn rs, turn th appropriat
control knob count r-clockwis to any position.
This control is both a gas valv and an l ctric
switch. Wh n you turn th control knob to any on
position, you will h ar a clicking sound. This is th sound of th l ctronic
saf ty r -ignition syst m (ESIRS) that will ignit th corr sponding burn r
with a 2 s conds saf ty d lay. Onc ignit d, th clicking sound will stop. If
th flam go s out for any r ason, th burn r will automatically att mpt to
r -ignit on tim . If it fails to r -ignit , th ESIRS will automatically shut
down th gas f d to th burn r. Fiv s conds lat r, th ESIRS will
automatically att mpt to r -ignit th burn r on tim by r -op ning th
gas f d. You will h ar a clicking sound again. If th burn r fails to r -ignit
onc mor , th abov cycl will b r p at d. Aft r 5 att mpts to r -ignit
th burn r, th ESIRS will automatically shut down th gas f d to th
burn r compl t ly. To r start th ignition proc ss you must turn th knob
to th off position and to any on position again. Aft r a 2 s conds saf ty
d lay th ignition proc ss will b gin again. Wh n th burn r lights, you
can turn th burn r control to any position to adjust th flam siz . S tting
th prop r h ight for th d sir d cooking proc ss and s l ct d ut nsil will
r sult in sup rior cooking p rformanc , whil also saving tim and n rgy.
R ar and Front Burn rs
Push in and turn th control knob count r-clockwis to th d sir d s tting.
Th control knobs can b turn d to any d sir d s tting as th knobs do
not hav fix d positions b tw n “Hi” and “Simm r”.
Within a f w mom nts, nough gas will hav trav l d to th burn r to
light. Wh n th burn r lights, turn th burn r control to any position to
adjust th flam siz . S tting th prop r flam h ight for th d sir d
cooking proc ss and s l cting th corr ct cooking v ss l will r sult in
sup rior cooking p rformanc , whil also saving tim and n rgy.
Note: The igniters may click a number of times before the burner ignites.
This is normal. All igniters will spark regardless of which burner is being
operated.
