VIKING RANGE VMTK276 (01) PDF Document

The following parts are included in the VIKING RANGE VMTK276 installation kit:

Before beginning the installation of the VIKING RANGE VMTK276, read these instructions completely and carefully.

Disconnect the plug of the microwave oven from the electrical outlet before installing the built-in trim kit.

Remove the turntable from the oven cavity.

Use caution when handling and installing the kit because it includes metal parts that could cause injury.

Do not remove permanently affixed labels, warnings, or plates from the product, as this may void the warranty.

Observe all local and national codes and ordinances.

If your lower conventional oven is not listed in the use and care manual of the microwave oven, do not install the microwave oven above it or in any area where heat and steam are generated, such as next to or above a conventional range.

The cabinet or wall opening for the VIKING RANGE VMTK276 must meet these minimum requirements:

Cutout Width: Minimum 25” (63.5 cm)

Cutout Height: Minimum 18-1/2” (46.9 cm)

Cutout Depth: Minimum 20-1/8” (51.1 cm)

The floor of the opening should be constructed of plywood strong enough to support the weight of the oven (approximately 100 lbs.) and should be level for proper operation.

The electrical outlet for the VIKING RANGE VMTK276 installation should be a 3-pronged, polarized outlet, providing 115-120 volt AC, 15 amp or larger. The outlet should be located at the rear of the opening and must NOT be in the shaded area indicated in the technical illustrations (the top left corner area of the rear wall).

Electrical requirements for the microwave are 120VAC/60 Hz (UL) or 117VAC/60 Hz (CSA). Max amp usage is 13.0 amps (UL) or 13 amps (CSA).

Step 1. Insert the edge of Duct B into the hold lip of Duct C. Secure them together using a Screw A. Remove the existing screw (#1) at the upper right rear of the oven and secure Duct C with that same screw (#1). Secure Duct B with a Screw A through the duct and into the original screw hole in the oven.

Step 2. Position Duct (A)-1 on top of the oven, inserting the edge of the Duct (BC) assembly into the hole lip of Duct (A)-1. Tighten two Screws A to secure Duct (A)-1 to the Duct (BC) assembly.

Step 3. Position Duct (A)-2 on the top of the oven and insert it into the hold lip of Duct (A)-1. Secure Duct (A)-2 to Duct (A)-1 using two Screws A.

Step 4. Position Duct (A)-3 on top of the oven and insert it into Duct (A)-2. Secure Duct (A)-3 using three Screws A.

Step 5. Place the Bottom Duct Assembly in the opening. When correctly positioned, the flanges will be tightly against the lower edge of the opening.

Step 6. Secure the Bottom Duct Assembly with two (1-3/16”) Screws C. It is important to secure these screws in the outer hole.

Step 1. Place the oven adjacent to the wall or cabinet opening and plug the power cord into the electrical outlet.

Step 2. Carefully guide the assembled oven into the prepared opening. Slide the oven onto the Bottom Duct Assembly. Avoid pinching the power cord between the oven and the wall.

Step 3. Adjust the position of the oven so that the feet of the oven are fitted into the recesses of the Bottom Duct Assembly.

Step 4. Attach the built-in trim kit frame with four Screw (B)s at the designated corners.

When installing the VIKING RANGE VMTK276 above a lower oven, the following spacing is required between the microwave cutout and the lower oven cutout:

For a 27″ wide and 30″ wide lower oven: Provide a 2″ (5.1 cm) gap.

For a 36″ wide lower oven: Provide a 4″ (10.2 cm) gap.
