27” Under-the-counter units

A single oven installed under the counter allows for the installation of most Thermador Gas or Electric non-Cook’n’Vent® Model Cooktops. Downdraft units cannot be installed in this configuration; Thermador overhead ventilation is recommended.

Some TMH cooktops require additional clearances to combustible walls.

A Thermador cooktop should be installed on the same center line as the under-the-counter single oven. Follow the installation instructions provided with cooktop for installation of cooktops. 3 3/4” (95 mm) minimum is required from the top of the countertop to the top of the cutout opening for under-counter installation 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 remain.

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 grounding 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 upward (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.

Installing the Oven

Note: Before installing the oven be sure to verify the cabinet dimensions and elec-

trical connections.

Removing the Oven Door

For ease of installation, some oven doors may be removed to reduce the weight of the oven by 30 lbs (14 kg) per door, before installing into the cabinet. See instructions below.

CAUTION: When removing the door:

m

• Make sure oven is cool and power to the oven has been turned off

before removing the door. Failure to do so could result in electrical shock or burns.

• The oven door is heavy and fragile. Use both hands to remove the

oven door. The door front is glass. Handle carefully to avoid breaking.

• Grasp only the sides of the oven door. Do not grasp the handle as

it may swing in your hand and cause damage or injury.

• Failure to grasp the oven door firmly and properly could result in

personal injury or product damage.

• To avoid injury from hinge bracket snapping closed, be sure that

both levers are securely in place before removing the door. Also, do not force door open or closed - the hinge could be damaged and injury could result.

To remove the oven door:

1. Be sure to read the above CAUTION

before attempting to remove the door.

2. Open the door completely.

3. Flip levers on hinges toward you.

4. Close door carefully until it stops. It will

be about half way closed.

5. Holding the door firmly on both sides using both hands, pull the door up and out of the hinge slots. Hold firmly; the door is heavy.

6. Place the door in a convenient and stable location for cleaning.
