What SEE MANUAL means

On the Viking 24-inch Combi Steam/Convect ovens VCSO244 and DCSO244 (2005 to 2010), such as the VCSO244SS and DCSO244SS, SEE MANUAL covers two situations. The water filter may be partly blocked, in which case you change it and descale. Or one of several errors has occurred. The steps are to press Off to cancel and unplug the oven for about a minute. If the message returns, write down the error number, switch the power off and call service.

Common causes of SEE MANUAL

  • A partly blocked water filter
  • Scale in the boiler
  • A temporary condition that clears after unplugging
  • A real error that returns and is identified by its number
✓ One safe check you can try

1. Press Off to cancel. 2. Cut power at the plug for a moment, then restore it. 3. Change the water filter if it is old or dirty. 4. Descale the oven if it is due. 5. If the message returns, write down the number, switch power off at the breaker and call us.

! Why to stop there
  • The message covers more than one situation
  • The error number tells us which
  • Running on after a returning error may cause more damage
Opening a panel yourself does not automatically cancel a manufacturer warranty, but it can cause accidental damage, and some manufacturers set their own service conditions. Check your warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.

What should I do first?

Press Off, unplug the oven for a minute and plug it back in. Then check the filter and descale if due. Most filter-related cases clear this way.

What number should I write down?

If the message returns, the display may show an error number. Write it down exactly, switch the power off and give it to us with the model number.

Is it safe to keep using the oven?

If the message clears after the steps, you may continue. If it returns, switch off and call us. We quote in writing first, with a 30-day workmanship warranty.
