9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT: SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE

LOCAL ELECTRICAL INSPECTOR’S USE.

INSTALLER: LEAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS WITH THE

UNIT FOR THE OWNER.

OWNER: PLEASE RETAIN THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR

FUTURE REFERENCE.

WARNING

When properly cared for, your new appliance has been

designed to be safe and reliable. Read all instructions

carefully before use. These precautions will reduce the

risk of burns, electric shock, fire and injury to persons.

When using kitchen appliances, basic safety precautions

must be followed including those in the following pages.

Fire Safety

Save these instructions.

Set the burner control so that the flame does not extend

beyond the bottom of the pan.

Do not allow aluminum foil, plastic, paper or cloth to

come in contact with a hot surface element, burner or

grate. Do not allow pans to boil dry.

If the cooktop is near a window, forced air vent or fan,

be certain that flammable materials such as window

coverings do not blow over or near the burners or

elements. They could catch on fire.

Always have a working smoke detector near the kitchen.

Never leave the cooktop unattended when in use.

Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers may

ignite.

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A GREASE FIRE:

Never leave surface units unattended at high settings.

Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that

may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.

Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or

when flambéing food (i.e. Crêpes Suzette, Cherries

Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).

Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be

allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.

Use proper pan size. Always use cookware

appropriate for the size of the surface element.

In the event that personal clothing or hair catches fire,

drop and roll immediately to extinguish flames.

Smother flames from food fires other than grease fires

with baking soda. Never use water on cooking fires.

Take care that drafts like those from fans or forced air

vents do not push the flames so that they extend beyond

the edges of the pan.

Have an appropriate fire extinguisher available, nearby,

highly visible and easily accessible near the appliance.

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN

THE EVENT OF A GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE

FOLLOWING:

SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie

sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the burner. BE

CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not

go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE

DEPARTMENT.

NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN – You may be

burned.

DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or

towels – a violent steam explosion will result.

Use an extinguisher ONLY if:

- You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher, and

you already know how to operate it.

- The fire is small and contained in the area where it

started.

- The fire department is being called.

- You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

During a power failure, only the cooktop burners can be

lit manually.

Whenever possible, do not operate the ventilation system

during a cooktop fire. However, do not reach through fire

to turn it off.

Gas Safety

To prevent carbon monoxide build-up, do not block

appliance air vents.

Have the installer show you where the gas shut-off valve

is located.

For proper burner performance, keep igniters clean and

dry.

If a burner goes out and gas escapes, open windows

and doors. Wait until gas dissipates before using the

appliance.

WARNING

All igniters spark when any single burner is turned on for

SGS and SGSP models. One igniter sparks on SGSX and

SGSXP when burner is turned on. Do not touch any of

the burners when the cooktop is in use.

If you smell gas, your installer has not done a proper job

of checking for leaks. If the connections are not perfectly

tight, you can have a small leak and, therefore, a faint

smell. If you smell gas, immediately shut off the unit and

contact an authorized service technician to diagnose the

issue. See Warning, ~ "Gas Appliance Safety"

on page 5

9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

To prevent flare-ups all grates must be properly

positioned on the cooktop whenever the cooktop is in

use. Each of the feet must be placed into the

corresponding dimples in the cooktop. Do not use a

grate if the rubber feet are missing or damaged.

Keep the igniter ports clean for proper lighting

performance of the burners. It is necessary to clean

these when there is a boilover or when the burner does

not light even though the electronic igniters click.

WARNING

To prevent flare-ups do not use the cooktop without all

burner caps and all burner grates properly positioned.

WARNING

Do not clean or touch any of the burners when an extra

low burner (if equipped) is in use. When the extra low

burner automatically reignites the ignitor at the burner will

spark.

WARNING

Use this appliance only for its intended use as described

in this manual. NEVER use this appliance as a space

heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in

carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating the

appliance. Never use the appliance for storage.

Burn Prevention

DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR

UNITS - Surface units may be hot even though they are

dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot

enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not

touch, or let clothing, potholders, or other flammable

materials contact surface units or areas near units until

they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these areas

are the cooktop and areas facing the cooktop.

Do not heat or warm unopened food containers. Build-up

of pressure may cause the container to burst and cause

injury.

Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when

flambéing food (i.e. Crêpes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee,

Peppercorn Beef Flambe).

Use high heat settings on the cooktop only when

necessary. To avoid bubbling and splattering, heat oil

slowly on no more than a low-medium setting. Hot oil is

capable of causing extreme burns and injury.

Never move a pan of hot oil, especially a deep fat fryer.

Wait until it is cool.

Secure all loose garments, etc. before beginning. Tie

long hair so that it does not hang loose, and do not wear

loose fitting clothing or hanging garments, such as ties,

scarves, jewelry, or dangling sleeves.

Child Safety

When children become old enough to use the appliance,

it is the responsibility of the parents or legal guardians to

ensure that they are instructed in safe practices by

qualified persons.

Do not allow anyone to climb, stand, lean, sit, or hang on

any part of an appliance, especially a door, warming

drawer, or storage drawer. This can damage the

appliance, and the unit may tip over, potentially causing

severe injury.

Do not allow children to use this appliance unless closely

supervised by an adult. Children and pets should not be

left alone or unattended in the area where the appliance

is in use. They should never be allowed to play in its

vicinity, whether or not the appliance is in use.

CAUTION

Items of interest to children should not be stored in an

appliance, in cabinets above an appliance or on the

backsplash. Children climbing on an appliance to reach

items could be seriously injured.

Cleaning Safety

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: The California Safe

Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the

Governor of California to publish a list of substances

known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other

reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn

customers of potential exposure to such substances. The

burning of gas cooking fuel and the elimination of soil

during self-cleaning can generate some by-products

which are on the list. To minimize exposure to these

substances, always operate this unit according to the

instructions contained in this booklet and provide good

ventilation.

WARNING

The burning of gas cooking fuel can create small

amounts of Carbon Monoxide, Benzene, Formaldehyde

and Soot. To minimize exposure to these substances the

burners should be adjusted by a certified installer or

agency to ensure proper combustion. Ensure proper

ventilation with an open window or use a ventilation fan

or hood when cooking with gas. Always operate the unit

according to the instructions in this manual.

9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

After a spill or boilover, turn off the burner and allow the

cooktop to cool. Clean around the burner and burner

ports. After cleaning, check for proper operation.

Do not clean the appliance while it is still hot. Some

cleaners produce noxious fumes when applied to a hot

surface. Wet clothes and sponges can cause burns from

steam.

Cookware Safety

Hold the handle of the pan when stirring or turning food.

This helps prevent spills and movement of the pan.

Use Proper Pan Size.

The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of

the heating element or burner to direct contact and may

result in ignition of clothing. Select cookware having flat

bottoms large enough to cover the surface heating unit.

This appliance is equipped with one or more surface

units of different size. Proper relationship of cookware to

heating element or burner will also improve efficiency.

Always position handles of utensils inward so they do not

extend over adjacent work areas, burners, or the edge of

the cooktop. This reduces the risk of fires, spills and

burns.

Adjust burner flame size so that it does not extend

beyond the edge of the cookware. Proper relationship of

cookware to burner flame reduces safety risks.

Use only certain types of glass, heatproof glass, ceramic,

earthenware, or other glazed utensils that are suitable for

cooktop use.

Proper Installation and Maintenance

Have the installer show you the location of the circuit

breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy reference.

This appliance must be properly installed and grounded

by a qualified technician. Connect only to properly

grounded outlet. Refer to Installation Instructions for

details.

This appliance is intended for normal family household

use only. It is not approved for outdoor use. See the

Statement of Limited Product Warranty. If you have any

questions, contact the manufacturer.

Do not store or use corrosive chemicals, vapors,

flammables or nonfood products in or near this

appliance. It is specifically designed for use when

heating or cooking food. The use of corrosive chemicals

in heating or cleaning will damage the appliance and

State of California Proposition 65

Warning:

WARNING

This product can expose you to chemicals including vinyl

chloride, which is known to the State of California to

cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive

harm. For more information go to

www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

Note: IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: The California Safe

Drinking and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the

Governor of California to publish a list of substances

known to the state to cause cancer, birth defect or other

reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn

customers of potential exposure to such substances. The

burning of gas cooking fuel and the elimination of soil

during self-cleaning can generate small amounts of

carbon monoxide. The fiberglass insulation in Self Clean

ovens gives off very small amounts of formaldehyde

during the first several cleaning cycles. California lists

formaldehyde as a potential cause of cancer. Carbon

monoxide is a potential cause of reproductive toxicity.

Exposure to these substances can be minimized by:

Providing good ventilation when cooking with gas.

Operating the unit according to the instructions in this

manual.

Accessories

Below is an overview of the accessories available for purchase for the Thermador gas cooktops and information on

how to use them correctly. These accessories are specially developed for your appliance.

Sealed STAR™ Burners

Your new cooktop has sealed STAR™ gas burners.

There are no burner parts under stainless steel to clean,

disassemble or adjust. Your cooktop has three different

burner sizes: small, medium, and large. Match the

corresponding letters on the burner cap and burner

base. See Burner Cap Placement.

STAR™ Burner Caps

The burner cap is porcelain coated steel. The burner

caps must be properly placed for the cooktop to function

properly. If the burner cap is not properly placed, one or

more of the following problems may occur:

▯ Burner flames are too high.

▯ Flames shoot out of burners.

▯ Stainless steel discolors.

▯ Burners do not ignite.

▯ Burner flames light unevenly.

▯ Burner emits gas odor.

9 WARNING

To prevent flare-ups and avoid creation of harmful

by-products, do not use the cooktop without all

burner caps, all burner bases and all burner grates

properly positioned.

9 WARNING

To prevent burns, do not touch burner caps, burner

bases or grates while hot. Turn the cooktop off and

allow the burners to cool.

Burner Cap Placement

Each cap has a letter (B, D, or F) cast in the underside of

the cap that corresponds to a letter (B, D, or F) cast in

the burner base that is attached to the appliance.

▯ Place each burner cap on its correct burner base per

its corresponding letter designation.

▯ Place burner cap gently on top of burner base so that

the prongs of the burner base fit snugly into the

groove of the burner cap.

Griddle

SGRIDDLEW

▯ Use this specially developed griddle for foods such as pancakes,

French toast, grilled sandwiches, bacon, vegetables and hamburg-

ers.

▯ The Thermador griddle is customized to fit on the center burner for

all Thermador gas cooktops.

Wok Ring

SWOKRINGW

▯ For stir frying meat, vegetables and rice with a round-bottom wok.

▯ Use only with round-bottom woks with a maximum diameter of 16

inches.

▯ The Thermador wok ring is recommended to be used on the center

burner for all Thermador gas cooktops.

Checking Burner Cap Placement

▯ Check to make sure that there is no gap between the

burner cap and burner base. See illustration below for

correct and incorrect placements of the burner cap.

▯ You may gently try to move the burner cap from side

to side to check if it is properly placed. If properly

placed, the cap will click from side to side as the

prongs hit the groove ridge.

Thermador ExtraLow

(XLO) STAR™

Burners (SGSX and SGSXP models only)

The center and left front burners are enhanced with the

ExtraLow

(XLO

) feature. XLO allows the reduction of

heat even further than the Low setting in order to simmer,

poach, melt or hold cooked food without scorching or

burning.

The XLO feature has the following properties:

▯ The XLO feature will cycle the burner flame ON and

OFF when the control knob is set within one of the five

XLO settings (the time the flame is ON depends on the

knob setting).

▯ Igniters will spark during the re-ignition of the XLO

burners. There will be a slight clicking noise when this

occurs (approximately every 60 seconds).

▯ For SGSXP models only, the left side of the light ring

will turn off and the right side of the light ring will

illuminate in blue when activating the XLO setting.

9 WARNING

Do not clean or touch any of the burners when one

or both ExtraLow

burners are in use. When the

ExtraLow

burner automatically reignites, the igniter

at the burner will spark.

Burner “ON” Lights

For SGS and SGSX models:

There is an “ON” light on this cooktop. When illuminated,

it indicates at least one burner is in use.

For SGSP models:

An “ON” light corresponds with the knob for each burner

(a total of five lights). When illuminated, it indicates that

the corresponding burner is in use.

For SGSXP models:

A light ring around each knob will illuminate to indicate

that the corresponding burner is in use.

Install Burner Grates

Properly position and install each burner grate according

to each individual model as shown in the illustrations

below.

Operation

About the Appliance

Use the cooktop for surface cooking applications such

as boiling, frying, simmering, steaming and sautéing.

9 WARNING

The burning of gas cooking fuel can create small

amounts of carbon monoxide, benzene,

formaldehyde and soot. To minimize exposure to

these substances, the burners should be adjusted

by a certified installer or authorized servicer to

ensure proper combustion. Ensure proper

ventilation with an open window or use a ventilation

fan or hood when cooking with Gas. Always operate

the unit according to the instructions in this manual.

Normal Operation - Electronic Ignition/Reignition

The cooktop uses electronic igniters to light the burners.

There is no pilot light. Each burner has its own igniter. If a

burner flame blows out during use, the burner will

automatically reignite.

9 CAUTION

To avoid possible injury or damage to the

appliance, ensure grates are installed exactly per

installation instructions and not backwards or

upside down.

The igniter should be clean and dry for proper operation.

▯ Avoid getting water or food on the igniter.

▯ If the igniter is wet or soiled, it may spark without

igniting the burner, or even spark continuously when a

flame is present.

Note: If the burner does not light within 4 seconds, turn

the burner off. Check to see that the burner cap is

positioned correctly on the burner base and the igniter is

clean and dry. If a burner still fails to ignite, see “Before

Calling for Service”.

When a flame is present and a Low setting is used, the

igniter may occasionally spark. This is normal.

9 CAUTION

To avoid possible injury or damage to the

appliance, ensure grates are installed exactly per

installation instructions and not backwards or

upside down.

Typical Flame Characteristics

The burner flame should be blue in color and stable with

no yellow tips, excessive noise or fluttering. It should

burn completely around the burner cap.

Checking Flame Characteristics:

▯ If the flame is completely or mostly yellow, verify that

the regulator is set for the correct fuel. After

adjustment, retest.

▯ Some yellow streaking is normal during the initial start-

up. Allow unit to operate 4 to 5 minutes and re-

evaluate before making adjustments.

▯ Foreign particles in the gas line may cause an orange

flame during initial use. This should disappear with

use. Check burner to make sure port holes are not

obstructed. If the ports are clogged. ~ "Before

Calling for Service" on page 24

Note: An audible “pop” may be heard when the burner

is turned off manually. The “popping” may be louder with

LP gas than with natural gas. This is normal.

▯ Cast-iron cookware absorbs heat slowly and cooks

more evenly at low-to-medium settings.

▯ Flat heavy bottom pans provide even heat and

stability.

▯ DO NOT USE pans that are thin, warped, dented or

ridged as they heat unevenly.

Yellow flames:

Further adjustment is required.

Yellow tips on outer cones:

Normal for LP Gas.

Soft blue flames:

Normal for Natural Gas.

Choosing Suitable Cookware

Specialty Cookware

Pans that span 2 burners, (i.e. griddles, roasters, fish

poachers, etc.) may be used when placed front to back.

For all models, use the Thermador accessory griddle

(Model SGRIDDLEW) on the center burner only. See

Parts and Accessories section for further information.

Use a wok with a flat bottom. Round bottom woks (with

a maximum 16 inch diameter) can be used with the

Thermador accessory support wok ring (Model

SWOKRINGW). See Parts and Accessories section for

further information.

Canners and pressure cookers must meet the same

requirements as described above. After bringing

contents to a boil, use lowest heat setting possible to

maintain a boil or pressure (for pressure canners or

cookers)

Cooking Recommendations for Your Cooktop

Beverages

Beverages should be heated to a boil on High heat, and

then simmered on a lower setting. If the beverage is held

on Low (or ExtraLow) to keep warm, stir approximately

every 10 minutes to prevent sticking or burning. You can

find the ideal settings for several beverages in the

Standard Burner and ExtraLow Cooking Tables. Use a

lower setting if the pan is covered.

Breads

Breads (i.e. French toast and grilled sandwiches) are

best cooked using a preheated skillet or griddle on

Medium heat. Once the pan is preheated, begin cooking

breads according to ideal settings in the Standard Burner

Cooking Table. From batch to batch, the heat setting

may need to be adjusted for optimal browning.

Deep Frying

Deep Frying is recommended on the large burner on

Medium High heat. The heat setting may need to be

adjusted to maintain oil temperature. You can find the

ideal settings for several deep fried foods in the Standard

Burner Cooking Table.

Sauces, Soups and Stocks

Sauces, Soups, and Stocks should be heated to a boil

on High heat and then simmered on a lower setting.

When heating cream sauces on your cooktop, use a

lower setting than tomato sauces to prevent scorching. If

sauce, soup or stock is held on Low (or ExtraLow) to

keep warm, stir approximately every 10 minutes to

prevent sticking or burning. You can find the ideal

settings for several sauces, soups and stocks in the

Standard Burner and ExtraLow Cooking Tables. Use a

lower setting if the pan is covered.

Cookware Recommendations

Pan Bottom Diameter

▯ The flame should be the same size as the bottom of the

pan or smaller.

▯ Do not use small pans with high flame settings as the

flames can lick up the sides of the pan.

▯ Oversize pans that span two burners are placed front to

back, not side to side.

▯ For best cooking results, large pans should not extend

over the sides of the grates.

Use Balanced Pans

▯ Balance is important for stability and even cooking.

▯ Pans must sit level on the cooktop grate without rocking

or wobbling.

▯ Center pan over burner.

Proper Fitting Lid

▯ A well-fitting lid helps shorten the cooking time.

▯ For best cooking results, always use a lid when boiling

water.

Vegetables, Side Dishes and Eggs

Steamed vegetables are easy to make on your cooktop.

Bring the water and vegetable to a boil with a lid on High

heat, then turn down to a lower setting until tender.

Cereals and rice should be cooked on the large or

medium burner on High heat, and then finished

according to the recipe instructions or until liquid is

absorbed. Cereals and rice can both be simmered using

ExtraLow. Pasta is best cooked on the large burner.

Using High heat with a lid, bring water to a boil. Once

pasta is added, the heat may need to be turned down to

prevent boil over.

When cooking scrambled or fried eggs melt butter on

Medium High, and then add eggs to cook to desirable

doneness. You can find the ideal settings for several of

these dishes in the Standard Burner and ExtraLow

Cooking Tables.

Meat, Fish and Poultry

In the Standard Burner and ExtraLow® Cooking Tables,

the ideal heating setting for any meat, fish or poultry can

be found. The cooking time depends on the amount,

composition and temperature of the food. Setting ranges

are indicated for this reason. Try using the lower values

at first or increase the temperatures throughout cooking.

Below are a few recommendations when cooking meat,

fish and poultry on the cooktop:

▯ Meats are best cooked on the large burner.

▯ It is recommended to use a preheated skillet when

pan frying meats.

▯ Cook bacon and sausage patties on Medium High

until meat starts to sizzle, and then turn heat down to

Medium.

▯ Simmering: Bring liquid to a boil on High, and then

simmer covered on Medium Low to Low (or

ExtraLow®) until meat is tender.

▯ Braising: Brown meat on Medium High, and then

simmer covered on Medium Low to Low (or

ExtraLow®) until meat is tender.

▯ Poaching: Bring liquid to a boil on High heat, and then

simmer covered on Low or ExtraLow until meat is

cooked through.

Desserts

Chocolate is best melted using ExtraLow® (see

ExtraLow® Cooking Table for appropriate setting). If the

cooktop does not have ExtraLow®, chocolate should be

melted using a double boiler on the small burner.

Standard Burner Cooking

The table lists the optimal heating setting for various dishes. The temperature and cooking time depend on the

amount, composition and temperature of the food. Setting ranges are indicated for this reason. Try using the lower

values at first. During cooking heat may be increased.

ExtraLow® Burner Cooking (SGSX and SGSXP Models

Only)

The Center and Left Front burners are enhanced with the

ExtraLow® (XLO) feature. When the control knob is set

within one of the five XLO settings, the flame cycles ON

and OFF automatically. This cycling is normal and allows

simmering, poaching, melting or holding cooked food

without scorching or burning.

How They Work

There are five XLO settings that vary in heating level. The

XLO settings gradually decrease in heating level as the

knob is turned to the right of the LO position.

The burner flame will cycle ON and OFF during each

minute when the control knob is at any one of the five

XLO settings. The time the flame is ON depends on the

XLO setting. XLO 5 has the highest heating level of the

XLO settings so the flame is ON for the longest amount

of time. As the knob is turned counterclockwise, the

amount of time the flame is ON will decrease.

Each XLO setting can be set by turning the appropriate

control knob to the desired XLO setting (see ExtraLow®

Setting Locations below). A slight catch will be felt at the

LO position and each designated XLO setting.

Cooking with ExtraLow

(XLO)

ExtraLow® (XLO) Setting Locations

The table lists the optimal heating setting for various

dishes. The temperature and cooking time depend on

the amount, composition and temperature of the food.

Setting ranges are indicated for this reason. Try using the

lower values first. Heat can be increased during cooking.

▯ Check the food occasionally to see if the control knob

should be turned to a lower or higher setting.

▯ It is normal to stir food occasionally. This is especially

important when simmering for several hours, such as

homemade sauce or beans.

▯ Simmer bubbles may not be seen when the flame has

cycled OFF.

▯ While the flame is ON, there may be bubbling. There

should be at least steam and a slight quivering of the

liquid’s surface.

▯ Use a lower XLO setting if the pan is covered.

▯ When lowering the flame setting, adjust it one XLO

setting at a time.

▯ If a setting is too low to hold a simmer, bring the food

back to a boil before resetting to a higher heat.

▯ If an oversized pan is used, the simmer action may

occur more in the center. For even cooking, stir the

food around the outer edges into the food in the

center.

▯ The quantity and type of food affects which setting to

use.
