Ensure that the appliance is connected to the type
ofgasforwhichitiscertified.Allrangesarecertified
for use with natural gas or propane (LP) gas. Make
certain the range matches the gas type available.
IMPORTANT
• A backguard must be utilized when there is less
than a 12” horizontal clearance between com-
bustible materials and the back edge of the
range.TheThermadorLowBackbackguardmust

Step 1: Ventilation Requirements
Itisstronglyrecommendedthata
suitableexhausthoodbeinstalled
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:
• Forwallinstallations,thehood
width must, at a minimum,
equal the width of the range
cookingsurface.Wherespace
permits,ahoodlargerinwidth
than the cooking surface may
bedesirableforimprovedven-
tilation performance.
• For island installations, the
hood width should, at a mini-
mum, overhang the range
cookingsurfaceby6"onboth
sides.
Notes: * For wall installations where adequate space is available, the installer or user may elect to
use a hood that is wider than the range cooking surface. This may be particularly
beneficial for those cases, such as a long duct run or heavy usage of the grill, in which
improved capturing of the cooking exhaust is desired.
** Thermador offers a choice of remote (VTR1000Q or VTR1400Q) or in-hood (VTN1000Q)
blowers for use in wall installations.

2. Hood Placement:
• For best smoke elimination,
the lower edge of the hood
should be installed a mini-
mum of 30" to a maximum of
36" above the range cooking
surface. (See Fig. 1).
• Ifthehoodcontainsanycom-
bustiblematerials(i.e.awood
covering), it must be a mini-
mum of 36" above the cook-
ing surface.
3. ConsiderMake-UpAir:
• Due to the high volume of
ventilationair,asourceofout-
side replacement air is rec-
ommended. This is particu-
larly important for tightly
sealed and insulated homes.
• Aqualifiedheatingandventi-
lating contractor should be
consulted.
CAUTION:
Ventilationhoodsandblowersare
designed for use with single wall
ducting. However, some local
buildingcodesorinspectorsmay
requiredoublewallducting.Con-
sult local building codes and/or
localagencies,beforestarting,to
assure that hood and duct instal-
lation will meet local require-
ments.
• Hood blower speeds should
be variable to reduce noise
and loss of heated or air con-
ditioned household air when
maximum ventilation is not
required.Normally, themaxi-
mum blower speed is only
required when using the grill.

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 clear-
ancesapply toislandinstallations,except forthe
overhead cabinets, which must have a space
wideenoughtoaccepttheflaredislandhood,as
indicated in Fig. 1.
2. The 36" ranges may be recessed into the cabi-
nets 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.
3. The gas and electrical supply should be within
the zones shown in Fig. 3A.
4. The maximum depth of over head cabinets in-
stalled on either side of the hood is 13".
5. Any openings in the wall behind the range and
in the floor under the range must be sealed.
6. When there is less than a 12" horizontal clear-
ance between combustible material ∆and the
back edge of the range above the cooking
surface, a Thermador Low Back or High Shelf
backguardmustbeinstalled.(SeeFig.2A).When
clearancetocombustible material ∆is over12",
aThermador Island Trim may beused. (See Fig.
2B). Figures 2A and 2B indicate the space
required for each type of backguard.
7. Always keep appliance area clear and free from
combustiblematerials,gasolineandotherflam-
mable vapors and liquids.
8. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and
ventilation air to the unit.
CAUTION
In these installations, the door and cabinet
can cause a pinching hazard.
NOTE: The maximum depth of over head cabinets
installed on either side of the hood is 13".
A 36-inch minimum clearance is required between
the top of the range and the bottom of an unpro-
tected cabinet. A 30-inch minimum distance is nec-
essary when the bottom of the wood or metal
cabinet is 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 (0.4 mm) thick
stainless steel, 0.024 inch (0.6 mm) aluminum, or
0.020 inch (0.5 mm) thick copper. Flame retardant
materials bear the mark:

• Due to the weight, a dolly with soft wheels
shouldbe usedto movethis unit.The weight
must be supported uniformly across the bot-
tom (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 (WOOD
STRIPS,CARPET,PANELING,ETC.)
BEFOREPUSHINGTHE UNITINTO
POSITION. The anti-tip device must be
installed (STEP 4), gas and electrical connec-
tions 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 professional
range must be level. (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 oven door. It is important that the
two (2) screws retaining the kick panel are
secure to prevent accidental access to hot
surfaces.
• Ensure that the burner caps are correctly
seated on the burner bases of the range's
cooktop.
