Any piece of equipment works better and lasts longer when
maintained properly and kept clean. Cooking equipment is no
exception. Your new Viking oven must be kept clean and
maintained properly in order to give you the years of cooking
enjoyment for which it is designed.
Several different finishes have been used in your electric oven.
Cleaning instructions for each surface are given below. (Your oven
features a Self-Clean cycle for the oven interior. See page 52 for
complete interior cleaning instructions.)
General Cleaning
NOTE: NEVER USE AMMONIA, STEEL WOOL PADS OR
ABRASIVE CLOTHS, CLEANSERS, OVEN CLEANERS, OR
ABRASIVE POWDERS ON ANY PART OF YOUR VIKING OVEN.
THEY CAN CAUSE PERMANENT DAMAGE.

Cleaning Recommendation
Meat Probe • Cool the probe before cleaning.
• The meat probe may be cleaned with soap
and water or with a soap-filled scouring pad.
• Scour stubborn spots with the soap-filled
scouring pad. Rinse and dry.

• Do not store the probe inside the oven.
Oven Control
Panel
• The panel and its individual TouchSensor™
panels should be cleaned regularly.
• Wipe clean with a soft cloth and any glass
cleaner or mild detergent.
Stainless
Steel Parts
• All stainless steel body parts should be wiped
regularly with hot, soapy water at the end of
each cooling period, and with a liquid cleaner
designed for steel when soapy water will not
do the job.
• Do not use steel wool, abrasive cloths,
cleansers, or powders.
• If necessary, soak the area with hot towels to
loosen encrusted material, then use a wooden
or nylon spatula or scraper. Do not use a
metal knife, spatula, or any other metal tool to
scrape stainless steel.
• Do not permit citrus or tomato juice to remain
on any stainless steel surface, because citric
acid will permanently discolor stainless steel.
Wipe up any spills.
CAUTION
All special ordered brass parts are coated with an epoxy coating.
DO NOT USE BRASS CLEANERS OR ABRASIVE CLEANERS ON
ANY BRASS PARTS. All brass body parts should be wiped
regularly with hot soapy water. When hot soapy water will not
do the job, use every day household cleaners that are not
abrasive.
