jacent to a perpendicular wall or
cabinet door, to allow at least 1/4"
space between the side of the oven
and the wall/door.
For oven support, install 2x4's extend-
ing front to back flush with the bottom
and the side of the opening. The sup-
porting base must be well secured to
the floor/cabinet and level.
Note: The conduit box must be in-
stalled either above or below the unit. If
the conduit box is installed below the
unit, a 2" diameter hole or space is re-
quired between the back wall and the
right rear of the 2x4 supports.
The cabinet base must be flat and
capable of supporting a weight of at
least 210 Ibs (95 kg).

A single oven installed under the
counter allows for the installationof
most Thermador Gas or Electric
non-Cook'n'Vent® Model Cook-
tops. Downdraft units cannot be in-
stalled in this configuration;
Thermador overhead ventilation is
recommended.
Some TMH cooktops require addi-
tional clearances to combustible
walls.
A Thermador cooktop should be in-
stalled on the same center line as
the under-the-counter single oven.
Follow the installation instructions
provided with cooktop for installa-
tion of cooktops. 3 3/4" (95 mm)
minimum is required from the top of
the countertop to the top of the cut-
out opening for under-counter in-
stallation with Thermador cooktops.
If the type of cabinet or countertop
thickness does not provide for this
minimum space, the cabinet base
may have to be lowered, into the toe
space, to provide the necessary
space above the oven. However, a
4" minimum distance between the
floor and the oven bottom must re-
main.

All model ovens on the front cover are dual rated, designed to be connected to ei-
ther 208/240V AC, 60 Hz, 4 wire, single-phase power supply.

The electrical supply should be a 4-wire single-phase AC. Install a suitable conduit
box (not furnished).
Important: Local Codes may vary, installation, electrical connections and ground-
ing must comply with all applicable local codes.
If local codes permit grounding through the electrical supply neutral, connect both
the white neutral wire and the bare ground wire from the oven to the white neutral
electrical supply wire.
Electrical Connection
1. Connect the red oven wire to the red electrical supply wire (hot wire).
2. Connect the black oven wire to the black electrical supply wire (hot wire).
3. Connect the white neutral oven wire to the white neutral (not bare ground)
electrical supply wire.
4. Connect the bare ground oven wire to the bare ground electrical supply wire.
The conduit cable, where connected at the oven, swivels. Rotate conduit cable up-
ward (or downward) and direct through hole prepared in cabinet to attach to J-Box.
To facilitate maintain serviceability, the flex conduit must not be shortened and
should be routed to permit temporary removal of the oven.
40 or 50 Amp circuit. Refer to local electrical codes
for de-rating requirements.
