Do not use a carafe with a cracked, loose, weakened or damaged handle.  
Do not clean carafe with cleansers, steel wool pads, or other abrasive materials.  
Allow brew basket to drain before removing to avoid scalding.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS  
Installing the carbon water filter  
Detach the filter holder and remove the carbon water filter from the packaging in  
water reservoir. Soak the filter in cold water for approximately 10 minutes (this is  
only necessary with new filters being used for the first time). Place the carbon water  
filter inside the holder and secure. Place the filter holder inside the water reservoir  
in the molded, circular retainer. The carbon water filter should be changed every  
3 months for optimal taste or more frequently (as specific conditions may dictate.)  
Carbon water filters are available from your local dealer, service center (1-800-  
216-5775), or at vikingrange.com.  
The first letter of each month is molded on the filter holder, and may be selected  
as a reminder to change the carbon filter when required depending on the  
hardness of the water. See illustration below.  
The filter should be used at all times to enhance the flavor of your coffee, as  
well as remove some impurities from water. The filter may need to be changed  
more frequently when used in areas with hard water. Your panel will display “dcl”  
when descaling is needed. A clogged filter will slow down the flow of water and  
damage the unit.

coffee. You will notice the pump running intermittently.  
The coffee maker will not properly brew if unit is not primed correctly.

Cleaning Instructions  
Hand wash the carafe, removable water reservoir, and filter basket in hot, soapy  
water. Dry thoroughly. When cleaning carafe, user should thoroughly rinse both  
the carafe and the carafe lid. Wipe unit with a damp cloth and avoid using harsh  
cleaners. Placing parts/accessories in the dishwasher is not recommended.  
Serving  
For serving coffee, from the closed l position half turn  
counterclockwise to the open m position on the carafe lid.  
Close carafe by turning clockwise to the closed l position  
to allow heat to stay contained. Turning the lid past the  
recommended open position may result in over pour or spill.  
Caution, will be very hot, steam may rise when opening.  
Removing calcium build-up  
Calcium deposits from water may build-up in your Viking Professional Coffee  
Maker and should be removed to maintain brewing efficiency and coffee quality.  
As a rule, calcium build-up should be removed every two to three months. Local  
water conditions or more frequent use of coffee maker may require more frequent  
calcium removal.  
Fill carafe one quarter full of vinegar, and then add cold tap water to the  
top. Pour the water/vinegar mixture into water reservoir. Replace reservoir  
into unit.  
Place the empty carafe under the spray head and follow regular brewing  
instructions. After the water/vinegar mixture has been cycled through, turn  
the machine off.  
Rinse by cycling two to three more carafes of plain cold tap water or until  
vinegar is gone.  
Do not pour any liquid other than cold tap water with vinegar into water  
reservoir while cleaning.  
When “dcl” is shown on screen, descaling must be  
performed. Failure to descale may damage unit and  
void warranty.  
Once decalcification has been completed and coffee maker has been flushed with clear  
water, the flashing “dcl” can be removed from the display by pressing and holding the  
BREW button.

Troubleshooting  
• If water reservoir icon is flashing the unit may need to be descaled. See page 13.  
• The water or brew basket icon appears and flashes. The flashing unit indicates  
which part is not properly installed. Detach and reattach to unit.  
• The overflow of water may occur if the user a) uses more than  
one paper filter b) uses too finely ground coffee, c) uses a per-  
manent filter with a paper filter, d) unit is not properly cleaned,  
e) carafe has been removed during brewing (see page 11). If this  
happens, never remove the filter basket while brewing. Turn the  
machine off and unplug. Wait 15 minutes for the unit to cool and  
remove the filter basket and empty the grounds and filters.  
• If the coffee maker is left in areas that may be subjected to freezing tempera-  
tures (such as vacation home), before brewing make sure the unit is brought to a  
temperature above freezing for at least 1 hour.  
• When the coffee maker is used in areas of high altitudes, the water temperature  
will be less than normal. The temperature of the water will decrease as the altitude  
increases.  
• If “dcl” is shown on the display, please descale unit before continuing opera-  
tion. See page 13.  
Helpful Hints  
• Rinse the carafe with hot water before use. This heats the carafe and will help  
keep the coffee warmer longer.  
• Never use more than 16 tablespoons (3 oz./84g by weight) of coffee in the  
paper or permanent filter. This may cause overflow in the brew basket.  
• Always fill the water reservoir to the “MAX” fill line before brewing.  
• When using the Hot Water bypass feature and tea basket for tea-making, users  
may need to purchase a separate carafe.
