that the appliance is connected to the type of gas for
which it is certified. All models are certified for use with
natural gas. Field conversion of the appliance for use
with propane gas supply will require a conversion kit.
IMPORTANT
•A backguard must be utilized when there is less
than a 12” horizontal clearance between combustible materials and the back edge of the range. The
Thermador Low Back backguard must be ordered separately and installed at the rear of the
range. For island installations and other installations with more than 12” clearance, an optional
stainless steel Island Trim is available to cover the
backguard mounting flanges.
•Verify that the appliance is correct for the type of
gas being provided. Refer to Step 5 on Page 12

To eliminate risk of burns or fire caused by
reaching over heated surface units, cabinet
storage located above the surface units
should be avoided.
CAUTION:
When connecting the unit to propane gas, make
certain the propane gas tank is equipped with its
own high pressure regulator in addition to the pressure regulator supplied with the range. The maxi-
mum gas pressure to this appliance is not to
exceed 14.0 inches water column (34.9 mb)
from the propane gas tank to the regulator.
CAUTION
This unit is designed as a cooking appliance.
Based on safety considerations, never use it for
warming or heating a room
.
This appliance complies with one or more of the following standards:
•UL 858, Standard for the Safety of Household Electric Ranges

Step 1: Ventilation Requirements
It is strongly recommended that a
suitable exhaust hood be installed
above the range. Downdraft
ventilation should not be used. The
table below indicates the
Thermador hoods, by model
number, that are recommended
for use with all ranges.
1. Select Hood and
Blower Models:
•For wall installations, the hood
width must, at a minimum,
equal the width of the range
cooking surface. Where space
permits, a hood larger in width
than the cooking surface may
be desirable for improved ventilation performance.
•For island installations, the
hood width should, at a minimum, overhang the range
cooking surface by 3" on each
side.
IMPORTANT:
Ventilation hoods and blowers are
designed for use with single wall
ducting. However, some local
building codes or inspectors may
require double wall ducting. Consult local building codes and/or
local agencies, before starting, to
assure that hood and duct installation will meet local requirements.
Do not install a microwave oven /
ventilator combination above the
range, as these types of units do
not provide the proper ventilation
and are not suitable for use with
the range.
2. Hood Placement:
•For best smoke elimination,
the lower edge of the hood
should be installed 36" above
the range cooking surface.
(See Fig. 1).
•If the hood contains any combustible materials (i.e. a wood
covering), it must be a minimum of 36" above the cooking
surface.
3. Consider Make-Up
Air:
•Due to the high volume of ventilation air, a source of outside
replacement air is recommended. This is particularly
important for tightly sealed and
insulated homes.
•A qualified heating and ventilating contractor should be
consulted.

Notes:* For wall installations where adequate space is available, the installer or user may elect to
use a hood that is wider than the rangetop cooking surface. This may be particularly beneficial
for installations having a long duct run or when heavy usage of the grill is anticipated, in which
improved capturing of the cooking exhaust is desired.
** Thermador offers a choice of remote (VTR1030D or VTR1530D) or internal (VTN1030C)
blowers for use in wall installations.

Step 2: Cabinet Preparation
1. The range is a free standing unit. If the unit is to be
placed adjacent to cabinets, the clearances shown
in Fig. 1 are required. The same clearances apply
to island installations, except for the overhead
cabinets, which must have a space wide enough
to accept the flared island hood, as indicated in
Fig. 1.
2. The 36" ranges may be recessed into the cabinets beyond the edge of the front face of the oven
(See Figures 2A and 2B). The 30" and 48" ranges
are not approved to be installed flush with the
cabinets.
CAUTION
In these installations, the door and cabinet on
36-inch models can cause a pinching hazard.
3. The gas and electrical supply should be within the
zones shown in Fig. 3A.
4. Any openings in the wall behind the range and in
the floor under the range must be sealed.
5. When there is less than a 12" horizontal clearance between combustible material and the
back edge of the range above the cooking surface, a Thermador Low Back or Pot and Pan
Shelf backguard must be installed. (See Fig. 2A).
When clearance to combustible material is
over 12", a Thermador Island Trim may be used.
(See Fig. 2B). Figures 2A and 2B indicate the
space required for each type of backguard.
6. A three (3) inch minimum clearance is needed
when the range is installed beside a combustible
side wall.
7. Always keep appliance area clear and free from
combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.
8. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and
ventilation air to the unit.
NOTE: The maximum depth of overhead cabinets
installed on either side of the hood is 13".
A 36-inch minimum clearance is required between
the top of the cooking surface and the bottom of an
unprotected cabinet. It is recommended that the
bottom of the wood or metal cabinet be protected by
not less than 1/4 inch of a flame retardant material
covered with not less than No. 28 MSG sheet steel,
0.015 inch (0.38 mm) thick stainless steel, 0.024 inch
(0.6 mm) aluminum, or 0.02 inch (0.5 mm) thick
copper. Flame retardant materials bear the following
mark:

within the Electrical and Gas
Supply Zone is
acceptable.
NOTE:
If not already
present, install
gas shut-off
valve in an easily accessible
location. Make
sure all users
know where and
how to shut off
the gas supply
to the range.
NOTE: The installer should
inform the consumer of the location of the gas
shut-off valve.
NOTE: Any opening in the wall behind the
appliance and any opening in the floor under
the appliance must be sealed.
The Dual Fuel ranges may be
connected to the power supply
with a range supply cord kit or by
hard-wiring to the power supply.
It is the responsibility of the installer to provide the proper wiring components (cord or conduit
and wires) and complete the electrical connection as dictated by
local codes and ordinances, and/
or the National Electric Code. The
®
units must be properly grounded.
Refer to Step 6 for details.
The range must be connected
only to the type of gas for which
it is certified. If the range is to be
connected to propane gas, ensure that the propane gas supply
tank is equipped with its own high
pressure regulator in addition to
the pressure regulator supplied
with the range. (See Step 5.)

ELECTRICAL SUPPLY
Step 2: Cabinet Preparation
Installation of the range must be planned so that the
rough-in of the junction box for the receptacle or
conduit connection will allow maximum clearance to
the rear of the unit.
When the power supply cord (not supplied) or conduit
is connected to the mating receptacle or junction box
cover, the combined plug/receptacle or junction box
cover/conduit connector should protrude no more
than 2-1/4" from the rear wall. See Figure 3B.
FIG. 3B WALL CONNECTION
This is especially critical if the junction box in the wall
will be directly behind the junction box on the unit
when the unit is installed. Refer to Figure 8 on Page
14 for location of junction box on unit. To minimize
binding when the unit is connected to the receptacle
or junction box, orient the receptacle or conduit connector, and slide back into position.

Step 3: Un packing, Moving and Placing The Range
CAUTION
Proper equipment and adequate manpower must be
used in moving the range
to avoid injury, and to avoid
damage to the unit or the
floor. The unit is heavy
and should be handled
accordingly.
•The range has an approximate
shipping weight as shown in
Chart A. The grates, griddle plate
and frame, burner caps, front
kick panel and oven racks must
be removed to facilitate handling. This will reduce the weight
as shown in Chart A and allow
the range to pass through 30"
doorways. See Figs. 2A and 2B

•Remove the outer carton and
packing material from the shipping base. The dual fuel ranges
are held to the skid by four (4)
bolts (see Fig. 4 and 5). After
removing the bolts the range
must be lifted and removed from
the skid.
•Remove angle-mounting brackets from range. This requires
the installer to remove two
screws holding each bracket
then remove bracket and reinstall screws.
NOTE: Leave adhesive-backed
foam layer over brushed-metal surfaces, to protect finish from
scratches, until the range is installed in final position.
IMPORTANT: Do not lift the
range by the oven door's
handle, as this may damage the
door hinges and cause the door
to fit incorrectly to the oven
cavity.
8
Step 3: Un packing, Moving and Placing The Range
•Due to the weight, a dolly with soft wheels
should be used to move this unit. The weight
must be supported uniformly across the bottom
(See Fig. 6).
•After transporting the professional range by
dolly close to its final location, the range can be
tipped back and supported on the rear legs
while the dolly is carefully removed. THE
FLOOR UNDER THE LEGS SHOULD BE
PROTECTED BEFORE PUSHING THE
UNIT INTO POSITION. The anti-tip device
must be installed (Step 4), gas and electrical
connections should be made (Steps 5 and 6),
and the backguard installed (Step 7) before the
range is placed in its final position.
•For proper performance the range must belevel. (It is very important for all products that
have the griddle feature). The range is leveled
by adjusting the legs with a wrench.
•Replace the kick panel and install the oven
door. To install door, see Page 17. Do not
install the oven door until the range is in its
final location. It is important that the two (2)
screws retaining the kick panel are secure
to prevent accidental access to hot surfaces.
FIG. 6- Dolly Positioning
Remove all tape and packaging before using the
appliance. Destroy the packaging after unpacking the appliance. Never allow children to play with
packaging material.
•Ensure that the burner caps are correctly
seated on the burner bases of the range's
cooktop.
Grill / Griddle Tilt Adjustment (Not on all models)
Check the griddle adjustment by pouring two tablespoons of water on the back of the griddle plate. The
water should slowly roll into the grease tray. If not, adjust the two screws under the back of the griddle.
Start with one half turn counter clockwise (CCW) of the screws. Further adjustment should be made
by one-quarter turn until water slowly flows into the grease tray.

Step 4: Installing Anti-Tip Device
For all 30" and 36" ranges, an anti-tip device must be installed as per these
instructions.
W ARNING
RANGE TIPPING HAZARD
•All ranges can tip and injury can result. To
prevent accidental tipping of the range,
attach it to the floor, wall or cabinet by
installing the Anti-Tip Device supplied.
•A risk of tip-over may exist if the appliance
is not installed in accordance with these
instructions.
•If the range is pulled away from the wall
for cleaning, service or any other reason,
ensure that the Anti-Tip Device is properly reengaged when the range is pushed
back against the wall. In the event of
abnormal usage (such as a person standing, sitting, or leaning on an open door),
failure to take this precaution can result
in tipping of the range. Personal injury
might result from spilled hot liquids or
from the range itself.
