ANSI Z223. I/NFPA 54 current issue and National Electrical
Code ANSI/NFPA 70-current issue. In Canada, installation
must be in accordance with the CAN 1-B149.1 and .2 -
Installation Codes for Gas Burning Appliances and/or local
codes.
WARNING
To avoid possible burn or fire hazard, a backguard
designed specifically for this range must be installed
whenever the range is used.
IMPORTANT:
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 Step 7 for backguard, kits and installation information.
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.
Refer to "Chart C: Backguard Kit Model Numbers" on
page 17, for the correct backguard models that are
designed for this range. After selecting the correct
backguard, the range must be installed properly, using the
minimum clearances to combustible surfaces specified in
the Cabinet Preparation instructions beginning on page 4.
Verify that the appliance is correct for the type of gas being
provided. Refer to "Step 5: Gas Requirements and
Hookup" on page 13 before proceeding with the
installation.
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 maximum gas pressure to
this appliance must not exceed 14.0" water column
(34.9 mb) from the propane gas tank to the pressure
regulator.
CAUTION
This unit is designed as a cooking appliance. Based on
safety considerations, never use itfor warming or
heating a room.
It is stronqlv recommended that this appliance be installed
in conjunction with a suitable overhead vent hood (see
"Step 1: Ventilation Requirements" on page 3). Due to the
high heat capability of this unit, particular attention should
be paid to the hood and duct work installation to assure it
meets local building codes.

Step 1: Ventilation
Requirements
It is stronqlv recommended that a suitable exhaust hood be
installed above the range. Downdraft ventilation should not
be used. The table on page 4 indicates the ventilation hood
options and blower capacity guidelines that are
recommended for use with all THERMADOR ® ranges.
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.
Due to the high heat of the rangetop burners, do not install
a microwave oven/ventilator combination above the range,
as these type of units do not provide the proper ventilation
and are not suitable for use with the range.
NOTICE:
Most range hoods contain combustible components which
must be considered when planning the installation.
,
,
,
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/rangetop
may be desirable for improved ventilation performance.
For island installations, the hood width should
overhang the width of the range by a minimum of 3"
(76mm) on each side.
Hood Placement:
For best smoke elimination, the lower edge of the hood
should be installed 30" (762mm) above the range
cooking surface (see Figure 1).
If the hood contains any combustible materials (i.e. a
wood covering), it must be installed a minimum of 36"
(914mm) above the cooking surface (see Figure 1).
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 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 150 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 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.
• Any openings in the wall behind the range and in the
floor under the range must be sealed.
• The gas and electrical supply should be within the
zones shown in Figure 3 on page 7.
• 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 on page 17).
• 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.
• Always keep appliance area clear from combustible
materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and
liquids.
• The maximum depth of overhead cabinets installed on
either side of the hood is 13" (330mm).
• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation
air to the unit.
There is a 36" (914mm) minimum clearance required
between the top of the cooking surface 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 0.02" (0.51 mm) thick copper.
Flame retardant materials bear the 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
(Flame 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.
