Note:
AUTO ROAST includes an automated SEARING function.
Control operates at Set Point plus 100ºF for the first 30 minutes,
then reverts to set temperature. During the SEARING function,
countdown timer does not count down.

During SEARING function, display shows SEARING.
Set Oven Function and Temperature
(cont.)
Note:
OVEN TEMPERATURE button does not need to be pushed as
the program automatically moves to setting OVEN TEMPERATURE
after OVEN FUNCTION is selected.
Note:
If an OVEN FUNCTION is not selected, control exits to comply
with 2-step “ON” requirement.
Note:
If no selection has been made in OVEN TEMPERATURE, oven
auto-starts at default temperature.
Using the Oven
Preheat
For best results, it is extremely important that you preheat your oven
to the desired cooking temperature before placing food items in the
oven to begin cooking. In many cooking modes, partial power from
the broiler is used to bring the oven to the preheat temperature.
Therefore, placing food items in the oven during preheat mode is not
recommended. The Viking Rapid Ready™ Preheat System is
engineered so that the oven is brought to the desired set temperature
in a manner which will provide the optimum cooking environment
based on the selected cooking mode in the shortest possible time.
For instance, the preheat mode for TruConvec™ is designed to be
brought up to the set point temperature in a different manner than the
preheat mode for CONVENTIONAL BAKE. This is because
TRUCONVEC is designed for multi-rack baking. So it is extremely
critical that all rack positions have reached the desired cooking
temperature. As a result, it is normal for oven to take slightly longer for
the oven to preheat to 350°F (180ºC) in TRUCONVEC mode when
compared to the amount of time it takes to preheat to 350°F (180ºC)
in CONVENTIONAL B AKE mode.
Also, preheat time can vary based on some external factors such as
room temperature and power supply. A significantly colder room
temperature or a power supply less than 240 VAC can lengthen the
time it takes for the oven to reach the desired set temperature.
Note:
While preheating, display will alternate between PREHEAT and
FUNCTION and TEMPERATURE selected.
Note:
PREHEAT is the only cycle where actual temperature is
displayed, otherwise the display shows set temperature.
Note:
Certain functions include a PREHEAT cycle. Once set
temperature has been reached, the oven will automatically exit
PREHEAT and follow NORMAL OPERATION mode.
