Surface Operation
Lighting the Burners
All burners are ignited by electric ignition. There are
no open-flame, “standing” pilots.
Vari-Simmer
Simmering is a cooking technique in which foods are cooked in hot
liquids kept at or just barely below the boiling point of water.
Simmering ensures gentler treatment than boiling to prevent food from
toughening and/or breaking up. The size of the pan and the volume of
food can have a significant effect on how high or low a flame is needed
for simmering. For this reason, Viking range and rangetop burners are
engineered with a Vari-Simmer™ setting. The Vari-Simmer setting is
not just one simmer setting, but provides a variable range of simmers
settings. This variable range of simmers settings allows you to adjust
the flame height to achieve the best simmer depending on the type
and quantity of food being simmered. It is this ability that makes the
Vari-Simmer setting the most accurate and trustworthy simmer on the
market.
