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.

NOTICE: Most range hoods contain combustible components which must be considered when planning the installation.

1. Select Hood and Blower Models:

• For wall installations, the hood width must, at a minimum, equal the width of the range. Where space permits, a hood larger in width than the range may be desirable for improved ventilation performance.

• For island installations, the hood width should overhang the range by a minimum of 3" (76mm) on each side.

2. Hood Placement:

• For best smoke elimination, the lower edge of the hood should be installed 30" (762mm) above the range cooking surface. Use a 36" (914mm) minimum clearance if the hood contains any combustible materials such as a wood covering (Figure 1 on page 5).

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.

Important Notes:

It is recommended that a THERMADOR PROFESSIONAL® wall or island hood or custom insert is used with THERMADOR PROFESSIONAL® ranges. Refer to www.thermador.com for a complete selection of Professional

Ventilation options, Blowers, and Accessories. * For high output gas ranges (60,000 BTU or greater), the minimum of one (1) CFM of ventilation per 100 BTU is

recommended. If the range has a griddle, add 200 CFM to the estimated blower capacity. Additional blower capacity may be required for longer duct runs.

For island applications, it is recommended to use a hood width that exceeds the width of the range by 6” (152mm), overlapping the range by a minimum of 3” (76mm) on each end.

CFM = “cubic feet per minute” (standard blower capacity rating).

Step 2: Cabinet Preparation

• The range is a free standing unit. If the unit is to be placed adjacent to cabinets, the clearances shown in Figure 1 on page 5 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 also indicated in Figure 1 on page 5.

• The range should not be recessed into the cabinets beyond the edge of the front face of the oven (see Figure 2 on page 6).

• The gas and electrical supply should be within the zones shown in Figure 4 on page 7.

• Any openings in the wall behind the range and in the floor under the range must be sealed.

• When installing against a combustible surface, a High Shelf or Low Backguard is required. A THERMADOR®

High Shelf or Low Backguard must be purchased separately (see chart below for Model Numbers).

• When using the Flush Island Trim, THERMADOR recommends a minimum 12” (305 mm) rear clearance to a combustible surface (see Figure 1, Cabinet Clearances). Clearances from non-combustible materials are not part of the ANSI Z21.1 scope and are not certified by CSA. Clearances of less than 12” (305 mm) must be approved by the local codes and/or by the local authority having jurisdiction.

• When the range is installed against a combustible side wall a minimum clearance of 5” (127mm) is needed from the side of the range to the wall.

36” or 42” Pro Wall Hood 36” Custom Insert w/ optional blower 42” or 48” Island Hood w/ optional blower

48” or 54” Pro Wall Hood 48” Custom Insert w/ optional blower

• Always keep appliance area clear from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.

• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air to the unit.

• The maximum depth of overhead cabinets installed on either side of the hood is 13" (330mm).

A 36” (914mm) minimum clearance is required between the cooking surface of the range and the bottom of an unprotected cabinet. A 30” (762mm) clearance can be used when the bottom of the wood or metal cabinet is protected by not less than 1/4” (6mm) of a flame retardant material covered with not less than No. 28 MSG sheet steel, 0.015” (0.38 mm) thick stainless steel, 0.024” (0.61 mm) aluminum, or 0.020” (0.51 mm) thick copper.

Flame retardant materials bare the following mark: UNDERWRITERS LABORATORIES INC. CLASSIFIED MINERAL AND FIBER BOARDS SURFACE BURNING CHARACTERISTICS followed by the flame spread and smoke ratings. These designations are shown as “FHC (FIame Spread/Smoke Developed).” Materials with “O” flame spread ratings are flame retardant. Local codes may allow other flame spread ratings. It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure installation is in accordance with these ratings.

Step 4: Door Removal and Reinstallation

CAUTION:

• USE CAUTION WHEN REMOVING THE DOOR. THE DOOR IS VERY HEAVY.

• 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 or replace the door.

• Failure to grasp the oven door firmly and properly could result in personal injury and product damage.

• With the door off, never release the levers and try to close the hinges. Without the weight of the door, the powerful springs will snap the hinges closed with great force.

To Remove the Oven Door:

1. Open the door fully and use a screwdriver to carefully pry the hinge clips away from the hinge slots (Photo A).

2. Flip the hinge clip toward you (Photo B).

3. Close the door until it stops against the hinge clips. The open hinge clips will hold the door open at a slight angle.

4. Grasp the door firmly on the ends of the door handle, and lift the door up. (There will be some spring resistance to overcome.) When the door is lifted sufficient to clear the hinge hooks, the door can be pulled straight out (Photo C). Place the door in a safe and stable location.

FIGURE 9: HINGE RECEIVER ADJUSTMENT SCREW

Adjusting the Leveling Legs

The range must be level for proper alignment of the oven doors. All models have a total of (4) leveling legs, one beneath each corner, that are threaded into the cast aluminum base structure.

-- Rotating the right front leveling leg clockwise will raise the right corner of the door. Rotating the right front leveling leg counterclockwise will lower the right side of the door. Rotating the left front leveling leg will result in the opposite effect. (See also “Step 9: Placing and

Leveling the Range” on page 22.)

To Check Door Fit and Operation:

1. Open and close the door slowly to test the movement and the fit of the door to the oven cavity. Do not force the door to open or close. If the door is properly installed, it should move smoothly and rest straight on the front of the range when closed.

2. If the door does not operate correctly, verify that the hinges are properly seated into the hinge slots, and that the hinge clips are fully engaged into the slots.

3. If door or handle appears slightly tilted, you may adjust the hinge receiver by rotating the large Torx-head screw located directly above the hinge receiver with a T-20 Torx driver. Turn adjustment screw until door is aligned (Figure 9).

English 21

Step 9: Placing and Leveling the Range

For proper performance, the range must be level. This is especially important for all products that have the griddle feature. Priority should be placed on ensuring that the oven

cavities are also level for optimum cooking performance.

CAUTION:

The top edges of the range’s side panels must be on the same or higher level as the adjacent countertop. If the range is operated while at a lower height relative to the adjacent cabinet, the cabinet could be exposed to excessive temperatures, causing damage to the cabinet and countertop (see Figure 24 on page 23).

Caster Locations

4. Final height adjustments of the two rear legs take place before moving the range into its installed position in the cabinet.

5. As the range is moved into its final, installed position, verify that the “hook” on the Anti-Tip Bracket is in a position to engage the back edge of the cast base (see “Step 5: Installing Anti-Tip Device” on page 12). This can be verified by viewing through the opening near the floor.

6. With the range in the installed position, the final height adjustments are made to the two front legs to ensure proper alignment to the countertop.

Griddle Tilt Adjustment (not all models)

If the range is equipped with an electric griddle, check the griddle frame 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 frame. Start with one half turn counterclockwise (CCW) of the screws. Further adjustment should be made by one-quarter turn until water slowly flows into the grease tray.

FIGURE 22: CASTOR LOCATIONS

1. Each range has a pair of casters adjacent to the rear legs (see Figure 22). The casters make moving the range easier by slightly lifting the front and allowing the casters to glide the range back towards its installed position.

2. The range has (4) leveling legs that are threaded into the cast aluminum base structure. The range is leveled by rotating the legs using an 12” (305mm) adjustable wrench on the flat sides of each foot.

• It is suggested to measure the counter top heights

first with a tape measure and adding an additional 1/16” - 1/8” (2-3mm), then adjusting the legs accordingly prior to pushing the range back to its final location.

3. Progression of the height adjustments should be alternated proportionally between the four legs, until the top edges of the range’s side panels are close to matching the countertop height.

Leveling Screws

FIGURE 23: GRIDDLE LEVELING SCREWS

WARNING:

To avoid risk of injury, never operate griddle without the griddle plate installed. Never use griddle in a manner that is not prescribed by the Use and Care Manual.

The griddle plate must always be in place when the griddle is turned on.

English 22

CAUTION! DO NOT operate range if sides are lower than the adjacent cabinet.

This may damage the cabinet and countertop due to excessive temperatures.

CABINET

CORRECT! Leveling legs should be adjusted so that the range

sides are at the same or higher level as the adjacent cabinet.

CABINET

Note: It is assumed that the countertop adjacent to the range has been properly leveled.

RANGE

Leveling legs can be adjusted

by using an adjustable wrench

on the flats of the legs.

Installing the Leg Covers

1. Remove plastic coverings of the stainless steel ‘sleeves’.

2. Place the smaller ‘sleeve’, with cutouts facing up, inside the larger sleeve with the openings of both stacked and facing the back (Figure 25).

3. Beneath the range, wrap the mated pieces around the leg.

4. Slide the outer sleeve up. The mating part has dimples (that you cannot see) for which the holes of the larger sleeve should seize. You should feel a definitive click, letting you know that the apparatus has been mounted to the unit (Figure 26).

5. Repeat for all visible legs.

After the range is properly leveled and the leg covers have been installed, replace the door trim and reinstall the Oven Door (“Step 4: Door Removal and Reinstallation” on page 10 for door re-installation).

Step 10: Burner Test and Adjustment

Install any loose components, such as burner caps and grates that may have been removed earlier. Be certain that burner caps seat properly into the burner bases. Before testing operation of the appliance, verify that the unit and the gas supply have been carefully checked for leaks and that the unit has been connected to the electrical power supply. Turn the gas shut-off valve to the open position.

NOTICE:

All oven knobs and selectors must be set to OFF before powering up the range. To prevent unintended operation at power up, please set all oven knobs to OFF. To ensure customer safety in the event of power failure, the unit will display an error message upon reinstatement of power unless all oven knobs are set to OFF. Set all oven knobs to OFF and reset the breaker to clear the message.

Test Rangetop Burners

Test Burner Ignition. Select a rangetop burner knob. Push in and turn counterclockwise to HI. The ignitor/spark module will produce a clicking sound. Once the air has been purged from the supply lines, the burner should light within four seconds.

Repeat these Ignition and Flame Test procedures for each rangetop burner.

Yellow Flames:

Further adjustment is required.

Yellow Tips on Outer Cones:

Normal for LP Gas.

Soft Blue Flames:

Normal for Natural Gas.

If the flame is completely or mostly yellow, verify that the regulator is set for the correct fuel. After adjustment, retest.

Some orange-colored streaking is normal during the initial start-up.

Allow unit to operate 4-5 minutes and re-evaluate before making adjustments.

FIGURE 28: FLAME CHARACTERISTICS

Test Flame: High Setting. Turn burner on to HI. See Figure 28 for appropriate flame characteristics.

If any of the rangetop burners continue to burn mostly or completely yellow, verify that the burner cap is positioned properly on the burner base, then retest. If flame characteristics do not improve, call THERMADOR®.

Test Flame: Simmer Setting. Turn burner on to SIM. Verify that the flame travels completely around the burner. This is know as “carry over”. There should be a flame at each burner port and there should be no air gap between the flame and the burner. If any burners do not “carry over,” call THERMADOR.

Four rangetop burners, (2) on the left side and (2) on the right, feature XLO® setting that causes the flame to cycle on and off when the knob is set to the XLO range. This is normal operation.

When Flame is Properly Adjusted:

• There should be a flame at each burner port.

• There should be no air gap between the flame and burner port.
