Cleaning Safety
• Turn off all controls and wait for appliance parts to cool before
touching or cleaning them. DO NOT touch the surface elements or
surrounding areas until they have had sufficient time to cool.
• Clean appliance with caution. Use care to avoid steam burns if a wet
sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface. Some clean-
ers can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
Radio Interference
This unit generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and,
if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If
this unit does cause harmful interference to radio or television recep-
tion, which can be determined by turning the unit off and on, the user
is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
• Increase the distance between the unit and receiver
• Connect the unit into an outlet on a circuit different from that to

CAUTION
To avoid risk of property damage, DO NOT use cast iron cookware.
Cast iron retains heat and may result in damage to the cooktop.
Cookware
Each cook has his or her own preference for the particular cookware that
is most appropriate for the type of cooking being done. This a matter of
personal choice. As with any cookware, yours should be in good condi-
tion and free from excessive dents on the bottom to provide maximum
performance and convenience. When using big pots, it is recommended
to use the front elements. There is more room in the front and potential
cleanup of rear of appliance due to staining or discoloration will be min-
imized.
Ceramic Glass Cooktop
All products are wiped clean with solvents at the factory to remove
any visible signs of dirt, oil, and grease which may have remained from the
manufacturing process. Clean your glass top before the first
time you use it. A thorough cleaning with a glass top cleaner is recom-
mended.
Induction Cookware
Induction cooking utilizes magnetic power which reacts with iron in the
base of cookware, instantly transforming the pot or pan into the heat
source. The heat stops when the cookware is removed. Your cookware
MUST have a magnetic layer of steel for your induction cooktop to op-
erate properly. The cookware should have a flat, heavy magnetic bottom
and straight sides with a diameter of 5” (13 cm) to 12” (31 cm) to ac-
commodate the various sized elements. The induction cookware should
be in good condition and free from excessive dents on the bottom to
provide maximum performance and convenience.
All Viking cookware is induction friendly,
as are most other high-end brands of
stainless steel and enamel cookware.
Most induction cookware will be suitable
for your induction cooktop if a magnet
adheres to the bottom surface.
• Cookware that is NOT suitable for
your induction cooktop includes pottery, glass, aluminum, copper,
bronze, and any type of cookware with a footed base.
