GAS TYPE VERIFICATION
Verify the type of gas supplied to the location. Ensure
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 LP gas supply will require a conversion kit.
IMPORTANT
All Cooktops having less than 12" (305 mm)
horizontal clearance between combustible ma-
terials and the back edge of the Cooktop must
be installed with a Thermador Low Back Back-
guard. If more than 12" (305 mm) horizontal
clearance exists, a Thermador Island Trim may
be used instead of the backguard. Before using
the Cooktop, insure that it is equipped with the
appropriate Low Back Backguard or Island Trim.
Refer to the Installation Instructions accompany-
ing this appliance for more information.
CAUTION:
When connecting the unit to propane gas,
make certain the propane gas tank is equipped
with its own high-pressure regulator in addi-
tion to the pressure regulator supplied with
the range. The pressure of the gas supplied to
the appliance regulator must not exceed 14"
(34.57 mB) water column.
