Introduction
The Thermador Professional® Ranges are freestanding
units available in a number of configurations. All models
feature a gas cooking surface with a professional size,
electric convection, self-cleaning oven with convection broil
capability. The 48” model has an electric self-cleaning
auxiliary oven with broil capability.
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 propane gas
supply will require a conversion kit. Make certain your
range and gas type are the same. Refer to the product
rating label which can be located as indicated on page 38.
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 inches water column
(34.9 mb) from the propane gas tank to the
pressure regulator.
Important:
All ranges must be installed with a backguard. The 30"
model comes with a Low Back, while the 36” and 48”
models come with a Flush Island Trim. Other available
backguards must be ordered separately and installed at the
back of the range. The three backguard choices include a
Low Back, Pot and Pan Shelf, or Flush Island Trim. Before
using the range, insure that it is equipped with a proper
backguard. DO NOT attempt to use a backguard that is not
