SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
•Tie long hair so that it doesn’t hang loose.
•In the event that personal clothing or hair
catches fire, drop and roll immediately to
extinguish flames.
•Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp
potholders in contact with hot surfaces may
result in burns from steam.
•Do not use a towel or other types of bulky cloth
in place of potholders. They may ignite if they
touch a hot element.
GENERAL OVEN SAFETY
•Do not touch hot elements or hot interior
surfaces of the oven.
•The heating elements may be hot even though
they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an
oven become hot enough to cause burns.
•During and after use, do not touch or let
clothing or other flammable materials contact
the heating elements until they have had sufficient
time to cool.
•The trim on top and on the sides of the oven
door may become hot enough to cause burns.
•Use care when opening the oven door. Open
slightly at first to let hot air or steam escape
before removing or replacing food.
•Do not heat unopened food containers. Buildup of pressure may cause the container to burst
and result in injury.
•Always place oven racks at desired level while
oven is cool. If a rack must be moved while oven
is hot, do not let potholder contact the hot
elements.
SELF-CLEANING MODE SAFETY
WARNING
!
▲
The California Safe Drinking Water and
Toxic Enforcement Act requires businesses
to warn customers of potential exposure to
substances which are known by the State of
California to cause cancer or reproductive
harm.
WARNING
!
▲
The elimination of soil during self-cleaning
generates some by-products which are on
this list of substances.
WARNING
!
To minimize exposure to these substances,
always operate this oven according to the
instructions in this manual and provide
good ventilation to the room during and
immediately after self-cleaning the oven.
•Confirm that the door locks and will not open
before starting self-clean mode. If door does not
lock, do not run self-clean; phone 800
service (see Page 58, for obtaining service.)
•Clean only oven parts listed in this manual.
•Keep surfaces of door and oven that come
together free of soil. Refer to cleaning
instructions on Page 52.
•Do not clean the door gasket. Care should be
taken not to rub, damage, loosen or remove the
door gasket . It is essential for a good seal.
•Do not use commercial oven cleaners or oven
liner protective coating of any kind in or around
any part of the oven.
•Before setting the self-clean mode, remove the
broiler pan, oven racks, other utensils and
excess, soft spillage.
MICROWAVE MODE SAFETY
•Do not tamper with, adjust or repair the door,
safety interlock switches or any other part of

Microwave Oven
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
IMPORTANT: Do not overcook food; fire could result. Proper cooking depends on selecting the correct power
level and cooking time for the amount of food in the oven. Smaller portions of food that are cooked too long may
catch fire. Always have food in the microwave oven when it is on to absorb the microwave energy. When using the
oven at power levels below 100%, you can hear the magnetron cycling on and off. Condensation is a normal part
of microwave cooking. Covered foods will not cause as much condensation as uncovered ones. Do not block oven
vents. This oven is rated for 650 watts by using the IEC Test Procedure. When preparing foods, check food 1-2
minutes before the minimum time and add time accordingly.

Fish should be removed from

Tips on cooking poultry
• Roast whole chickens with breast-side up; tuck wings
back and loosely tie legs with kitchen string.
• A basting sauce keeps the outside skin moist.
• Marinate boneless, skinIess chicken breasts for 30
minutes to 24 hours before cooking.
• Small pieces of aluminum foil may be used to cover
poultry wings or legs to prevent overbrowning.
• Check inner thigh area for doneness with meat
thermometer.
• Stuffed poultry is not recommended in this mode.
• If roasting bags are used, cooking time may need to
be increased.

•Microwave-safe plastics
•Paper plates and cups
•Microwave-safe pottery, stoneware, porcelain
•Metal bakeware or pans
Tips
•To check whether a dish or mug is safe to use in this
mode, put empty item on microwave rack and heat
on High for 30 seconds. If it becomes very hot, do
not use it.
•Microwave energy may cause some arcing between
metal objetcs. Small amounts of arcing are neither
harmful nor hazardous.
Not Recommended for Microwave Mode
•Non-heat-resistant glass
•Food carton with metal handle
•Non-microwaveable plastics (i.e. margarine tubs)
•Styrofoam cups or containers
•Metal or non-microwaveable plastic commuter beverage container
•Recycled paper products (i.e. brown shopping bags)

escapes). Do not allow plastic wrap to touch food.
•Parchment paper
Cooking Techniques
®
•Arranging – Place food in a circular pattern with
the thickest areas toward the outside of dish.
•Covering – Most foods cook and reheat more
evenly when covered.
•Shielding – Cover thinner areas of food with foil
to prevent over-cooking or defrosting too quickly,
i.e. chicken drumsticks. Do not wrap baking potatoes in foil.
•Foil should not come closer than one inch to
any surface of the oven.
•Stirring and Turning – Stir foods from the outer
edges toward center of utensil or turn food over
once during cooking.
•Standing Time – It is necessary to allow food to
stand to complete cooking.
Guide to Power Levels
HI = 650 watts
HI (100%) Poultry, fish, fresh and frozen vegetables,
casseroles, boil water, popcorn, pudding.
9( 90%)Reheat rice and pasta.
8( 80%)Reheat precooked food, seafood.
7( 70%)Cheese entrees.
Food Selection
•Quantity – The cooking time is dependent on the
amount of food in the oven. Note: A small amount
of food, i.e. 4 T. butter, will take longer to heat because the oven cavity is large compared to the small
amount of food.
•Content – The amount of fat, sugar and liquid in
the food affects the cooking time. For example,
eggs, cheese, mayonnaise, etc., cook very quickly.
•Density – A non-porous food, such as roast, takes
longer to cook than a porous food such as bread.
•Shape and Size – Uniform shapes and sizes cook
more evenly.

General Oven Tips – Both Ovens
CM Oven Care and Use Manual
PREHEATING THE OVEN
• Preheat the oven when using the BAKE, CON–
VECTION, CONVECTION BAKE, ROAST,
COOKSMART and CUSTOM COMBINATION
with MICROWAVE modes.
• Preheat is optional for CONVECTION ROAST.
Preheating is not recommended for
CONVECTION ROAST when using the PROBE.
A hot oven impairs connecting the meat probe
into the receptacle and into the roast.
• Allow oven to preheat while preparing recipe or
food.
• Place racks in the oven before preheating.
• During preheat, the selected cooking temperature
is displayed and alternates with a display of the
actual oven temperature.
• The oven chimes once when it is preheated and
the selected cooking temperature is displayed.
OPERATIONAL SUGGESTIONS
• Use the cooking charts as a guide.
• Do not set pans on the opened oven door.
• Use the interior oven light to view the food
through the oven door window rather than
opening the door frequently.
• Use TIMER 1 OR TIMER 2 to keep track of cooking
times.
UTENSILS
• Reduce oven temperature 25º when baking in glass.
• Use pans that give the desired browning.
golden brown crusts, use light nonstick/anodized
or shiny metal utensils.
• For brown, crisp crusts, use dark nonstick/anodized
or dark, dull metal utensils or glass bakeware.
Insulated baking pans may increase the length of
cooking time.
• Do not cook with the empty broiler pan in the
oven, as this could change cooking performance.
Store the broil pan outside of the oven.
• Tips for “Solving Baking Problems” are found on
Page 57.
HIGH ALTITUDE BAKING
• When cooking at high altitudes, recipes and
cooking times will vary from the standard. For
accurate information, write the Extension Service,
Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado
80521. There may be a cost for the bulletins.
For tender,
CONDENSATION / TEMPERATURE SENSOR
• It is normal for a certain amount of moisture to
evaporate from the food during any cooking
process. The amount depends on the moisture
content of the food. The moisture may condense
on any surface cooler than the inside of the oven,
such as the control panel.
• Your new Thermador® oven has an electronic
temperature sensor that accurately maintains the
temperature selected. Your previous oven may
have had a mechanical thermostat that drifted
gradually over time to a higher temperature. It is
common to experience an adjustment period
when cooking your favorite recipes in the new
oven.
OVEN RACKS
• Rack positions are numbered from the bottom rail
guide (#1) to the top (#6). Check the cooking
charts for the recommended position.
• To insert racks into the oven, hold the rack with
the back rail up and toward the back. Place the
safety hooks under the front of the rail guides.
Push the rack into the oven, lifting the rack stops
over the front of the rail guides. Slide the rack
into position.
• To remove racks or reposition racks in the oven,
pull the rack towards the front of the oven. Lift up
the front of the rack over the safety stops and pull
from the oven.
• Rack rail supports should not be removed from
the oven.
• CAUTION! Never use aluminum foil to cover the
oven racks or to line the oven. It can cause damage
to the oven can liner if heat is trapped under the
foil.
• When placing food on a rack, pull the rack out to
the stop position. The racks are designed to lock
when pulled forward.
120/208 Volt Connection
• Preheat the oven for all cooking modes.
Preheat time will be slightly longer.
• Preheat the broil element with the door open
for 3 to 4 minutes or until the top element is
red. Do not preheat with the broil pan in the
oven.
• The Self-Clean mode may need a longer clean
time than normal, depending on the amount
of soil.

BAKE TIPS
• Follow the recipe, package directions, or the cooking
chart on next page for baking temperatures, time
and rack position.
• Baking time will vary with the size, shape and finish
of the baking utensil. Dark metal pans or nonstick
coatings will cook faster with darker results. Insulated
bakeware will lengthen the cooking time for most
foods.
• For best results, bake food on a single rack with at
least 1-1/2" space between utensils and oven walls.

• Use a maximum of 2 racks when selecting the bake
mode. Stagger pans or baking sheets so that one is
not directly above another.
• Eliminate heat loss from the oven by using the window
to periodically check food for doneness.
• Do not use any aluminum foil or a disposable
aluminum tray to line any part of the oven. Foil is an
excellent heat insulator and heat will be trapped
beneath it. This will alter the cooking performance
and can damage the finish of the oven.

Convection Roast and Probe Mode
•Preheating is optional for CONVECTION ROAST.
Preheating is not recommended for CONVECTION
ROAST when using the PROBE. A hot oven impairs
connecting the meat into the receptacle and into the roast.
•Roast in a low-sided, uncovered pan.
To Set the CONVECTION ROAST and PROBE Mode:
1.Insert the probe into the thickest part of the
meat. Push the plug into the oven receptacle.
•Use CONVECTION ROAST when roasting tendercuts of meat or poultry of any size.
•Results will yield a drier, crisper exterior that seals in
the interior juices with few pan drippings.
•Place tip of probe into the center of thickest section,

Care and Cleaning
CM Oven Care and Use Manual
Self-Cleaning The Oven
Your new oven features two pyrolytic self-cleaning
ovens. When set into the CLEAN mode, the oven
reaches a high temperature that burns off the food soil.
• As a safety feature, the oven door locks during SELF
CLEAN to protect you from very high temperatures.
Do not try to open the door during SELF CLEAN.
• Only one oven can be set to self clean at a time. The
second oven cannot be used while one is self-cleaning.
• The microwave mode can be used when the Lower
oven is self-cleaning.
• It is common to see smoke and/or an occasional flameup during the CLEAN cycle, depending on the content
and amount of soil remaining in the oven. If a flame
persists, turn off the oven and allow it to cool before
opening the door to wipe up the excessive food soil.
• The oven light will not turn on when the oven is set

NOTE: Due to the high temperatures used for
self-cleaning, the oven may develop fine lines or
surface roughness. This is a common condition
and does not affect either the cooking or the cleaning performance of the oven.
cycle.
BEFORE YOU SELF CLEAN
1. Hand-clean the oven door edge, window, oven front
frame and oven cavity edges (shaded areas below).
They do not get hot enough during the cleaning cycle
for soil to burn away. Use a soapy sponge, plastic
scrubber or an S.O.S.® pad. DO NOT RUB THE
GASKET.
2 . Wipe up large overspills and grease with
paper towels.
3. Remove all utensils.
4. Remove oven racks. If the oven racks are left
in the oven during a self-cleaning cycle, they
will permanently lose their shiny finish and
change to a dull dark finish. See the Oven
Cleaning Chart for proper care, Page 52-53.
5. Be sure the light is turned off on the control panel
and the bulb and glass cover are in place, see
Page 55.
6. Heat and odors are normal during the Self-Cleaning
cycle. Keep the kitchen well ventilated.
AFTER SELF CLEAN
• When the oven heat drops to a safe temperature,
the automatic door will release and the door can be
opened.
• At the end of the CLEAN cycle, gray␣ ash remains
inside the oven. The␣ amount of ash depends on how
heavily␣ soiled the oven was before it was cleaned. It
is easily removed. When the oven is cold wipe with
a damp sponge or cloth. If the racks do not slide
easily after being cleaned, lightly rub rack side rails
with vegetable oil.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to let the inside window glass in the oven door cool completely
before wiping up any ash left from the clean
cycle.

The Upper or single oven door is NOT removable.
The oven door can be removed to clean hard-to-reach areas inside the oven.
• Use caution when removing the lower door as it is very heavy.
CM Oven Care and Use Manual
To Remove the Lower Oven Door
1. Fully open the oven door.
2. Raise the U-clip over the hook on each of the hinges
to the "locked" position (see illustration below). This
will prevent the hinge from snapping closed when
the door is removed.
3. Grasp the door by the sides toward the back. Raise
the front of the door several inches (there will be
some spring resistance to overcome because of the
hinge being locked). When the front of the door is
high enough, you will be able to lift the hinges to
clear the indents.
4. Pull the hinges out of the slots in the oven front frame.

Solving Baking Problems
With either BAKE or CONVECTION, poor results can occur for many reasons other than a malfunction of
the oven. Check the chart below for causes of the most common problems. Since the size, shape and material
of baking utensils directly affects the baking results, the best solution may be to replace old baking utensils that
have darkened and warped with age and use. Check the Baking Charts for the correct rack position and baking
time.
