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 specifi cations, the
recommended installation location temperature range is
from 55 to 115°F (13 to 46°C).
Cabinet Clearance
Ventilation is required from the bottom front of the
appliance. 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 unobstructed.
Front Grille
Do not obstruct the front grille. The openings within
the front grille allow air to fl ow through the condenser
heat exchanger. Restrictions to this air fl ow will result in
increased energy usage and loss of cooling capacity. For
this reason it is important this area not be obstructed and
the grille openings kept clean. Viking Range,LLC does not
recommend the use of a custom made grille as air fl ow may
be restricted. (See Figure 2).

To adjust the leveling legs, place the appliance on a solid
surface and protect the fl oor beneath the legs to avoid
scratching the fl oor. 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
appliance 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
adjusted to the desired height. When adjustment is
complete tighten the two front grille screws. (See Figure 5).
