Safety Practices to Avoid Personal Injury

When properly cared for, your new THERMADOR

PROFESSIONAL ® range has been designed to be a safe,

reliable appliance. However, use extreme care when using

this restaurant caliber range as this type of appliance

provides intense heat. When using kitchen appliances,

basic safety precautions must be followed, including the

following:

Read this Use and Care Guide carefully before using your

new range to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or

injury to persons.

Ensure proper installation and servicing. Follow the

Installation Manual provided with this product. Have the

range installed and electrically grounded by a qualified

technician.

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

valve is located so that you know how and where to turn off

the gas to the range. Have the installer show you the

location of the circuit breaker. Mark it for easy reference.

DO NOT repair or replace any part of the appliance unless

specifically recommended in this manual. All other

servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

Child Safety

Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area

where appliances are in use. They should never be allowed

to sit or stand on any part of the appliance. If children are

allowed to use the appliance, they must be closely

supervised.

WARNING:

DO NOT store items of interest to children above or at

the back of the range. If children should climb onto the

appliance to reach these items, they could be seriously

injured.

When children become old enough to operate the

appliance, it is the legal responsibility of the parents or

legal guardians to ensure that they are instructed in safe

practices by qualified persons.

Never use any part of the range or oven for storage.

Flammable materials can catch fire and plastic items may

melt or ignite.

DO NOT hang articles from any part of the appliance or

place anything against the oven. Some fabrics are quite

flammable and may catch on fire.

If the range is near a window, be certain the curtains DO

NOT blow over or near the range burners; they could catch

on fire.

ALWAYS have a working smoke detector near the kitchen.

In the event that personal clothing or hair catches fire, drop

and roll immediately to extinguish flames.

Have an appropriate fire extinguisher available, nearby,

highly visible and easily accessible near the appliance. DO

NOT USE WATER ON GREASE FIRES.

Turn appliance off and smother fire with baking soda or use

a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

TO

Ii

WARNING

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 flamb6ing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries

Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flamb6).

Clean hood filters 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 cooktop burner.

Never let clothing, potholders, or other flammable materials

come in contact with or too close to any infrared burner, top

burner or burner grate until it has cooled. Fabric may ignite

and result in personal injury.

Use only dry potholders: moist or damp potholders on hot

surfaces may cause burns from steam. DO NOT use a

towel or other bulky cloth in place of potholders. DO NOT

let potholders touch hot elements, hot burners, or burner

grates.

For personal safety, wear proper apparel. Loose fitting

garments or hanging sleeves should never be worn while

using this appliance. Some synthetic fabrics are highly

flammable and should not be worn while cooking.

English 3

A iMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

DO NOT use aluminum foil to line any part of the oven or

range. Use of a foil liner could result in a shock or fire

hazard, or the obstruction of the flow of combustion and

ventilation air. Foil is an excellent heat insulator and heat

will be trapped beneath it. This will upset the cooking

performance and can damage the finish of the oven or the

range.

WARNING:

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS, IN

THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE,

OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

• Smother flames with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet,

or other metal tray, then turn off the gas burner or the

electric element. 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 dish cloths 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.

WARNING:

The appliance is for cooking. Based on safety

considerations, never use the oven or cooktop to warm

or heat a room. Also, such use can damage the cooktop

or oven parts.

WARNING:

NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or

warm the room. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide

poisoning and overheating of the oven.

WARNING:

NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven

bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as

aluminum foil. Doing so blocks airflow through the oven.

Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire

hazard. This will upset the cooking performance and can

damage the finish of the oven or the range.

When using the cooktop: DO NOT TOUCH THE BURNER

GRATES OR THE IMMEDIATE SURROUNDING AREA.

Areas adjacent to the burners may become hot enough to

cause burns.

Never leave the range unattended when using high flame

settings. Boil overs cause smoking and greasy spillovers

that may ignite. More importantly, if the burner flames are

smothered, unburned gas will escape into the room. See

front of this manual, page 1 regarding gas leaks.

Only certain types of glass, heatproof glass=ceramic,

ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable

for cooking on the range burners. This type of utensil may

break with sudden temperature changes. Use only on low

or medium heat settings according to the utensil

manufacturer's directions.

DO NOT heat unopened food containers; a buildup of

pressure may cause the container to burst.

During cooking, set the burner control so that the flame

heats only the bottom of the pan and does not extend

beyond the bottom of the pan. Proper relationship of

cookware to burner flame reduces safety risks.

Avoid using high flame setting with a pan larger than the

grate or with one that spans more than one burner, such as

a griddle, for prolonged periods of time. This can result in

poor combustion that generates harmful by-products.

Use caution to insure that drafts like those from forced air

vents or fans DO NOT blow flammable material toward the

flames or push the flames so that they extend beyond the

edges of the pot.

Always use utensils that have flat bottoms large enough to

cover the burner. The use of undersized utensils could

expose a portion of the flame and may result in ignition of

clothing.

Bakeware, such as large casserole pans, cookie sheets,

etc., should never be used on the cooktop.

To minimize the risk of burns, ignition of flammable

materials and unintentional spillage, position handles of

utensils inward so they do not extend over adjacent work

areas, cooking areas, or the edge of the range's cooktop.

Hold the handle of the pan to prevent movement of the

utensil when stirring or turning food.

iMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

DO NOT use pots or pans on the grill plate accessory.

DO NOT use the grill plate accessory for cooking

excessively fatty meats or products which promote flare-

ups.

The optional cutting board accessory must be removed

before operating the griddle beneath it or burners adjacent

to it.

GREASE IS FLAMMABLE. Let hot grease cool before

attempting to handle it. Avoid letting grease deposits

collect. Clean after each use.

For proper lighting and performance of the burners, keep

the igniter ports clean. It is necessary to clean these when

there is a boil over or when the burner does not light even

though the electronic igniters activate. See "Cleaning

Recommendations" on page 33.

WARNING:

After a spill or boil over, turn off the burner and using

caution due to possible hot surfaces, clean around the

burner and burner ports. After cleaning, check for proper

operation.

Clean the range with caution. Avoid steam burns; DO NOT

use a wet sponge or cloth to clean the range while it is hot.

Some cleaners produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot

surface. Follow directions provided by the cleaner

manufacturer.

DO NOT use flammable cleaners to clean the range.

Be sure all cooktop controls are turned off and the cooktop

is cool before using any type of aerosol cleaner on or

around the cooktop. The chemical that produces the

spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite or

cause metal parts to corrode.

When using the oven: DO NOT touch the broiler element,

the interior surfaces of the oven or the exterior area

immediately surrounding the door. Interior oven surfaces

become hot enough to cause burns. The heat deflector,

which deflects heat away from the cooktop and the trim on

the top and sides of the oven door, will also be hot when

the oven is in use.

DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilation air.

, WARNING:

Vent

Flush Island

Trim Vent

DO NOT block or obstruct the flow of air

through the ventilation openings. The oven

vent is located at the back of the appliance.

The vents need to be unobstructed and

open to provide necessary airflow that is

important for proper oven performance.

DO NOT touch oven vent area while the

appliance is on and for several minutes

after the appliance is off. Some parts of the

vent and surrounding areas become hot

enough to cause burns. Allow appliance

sufficient time to cool before touching or

cleaning vent areas.

DO NOT position plastic or other heat-

sensitive items on or near the oven vent.

These items could melt or ignite.

Place oven racks in desired position while oven is cool. If a

rack must be moved while the oven is hot, DO NOT let the

potholders contact the broiler element.

Use care when opening the oven door; let hot air or steam

escape before removing or replacing foods.

DO NOT clean, rub, damage, move or remove the door

gasket. It is essential for a good seal during baking. If the

gasket becomes worn or excessively soiled with food

particles, replace gasket to assure a tight seal.

Protect the self=cleaning feature. Clean only those parts

indicated in this booklet. DO NOT use commercial oven

cleaners or oven liner protective coatings of any kind in or

around the self-cleaning oven.

For safety reasons and to avoid equipment damage, never

sit, stand, or lean on the oven door.

English 5

A iMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Use CAUTION when opening the oven door during or

immediately after operation. Stand to the side of the oven

when opening an oven door to allow hot air or steam to

escape. Keep face well away from the open door to avoid

injury.

Service should only be done by authorized

technicians. Technicians must disconnect the power

supply before servicing this unit.

Listen to be sure the cooling blower runs whenever the

oven controls are set to BROIL or BAKE modes, after oven

heats to 300°F (149°C). If the fan does not operate, DO

NOT use the oven. Call Customer Support at 1-800-735-

4328 for assistance.

To avoid a fire hazard, grease accumulation must be

prevented by frequently cleaning the ventilation hood and

filters.

In case of fire or when intentionally "flaming" liquor or other

spirits on the range's cooktop, follow hood manufacturer's

instructions. Use caution when cooking foods with high

alcohol content (e.g. rum, brandy, bourbon)in the oven.

Alcohol evaporates at high temperatures. There is a risk of

burning as the alcohol vapors may catch fire in the oven.

Use only small quantities of alcohol in foods, and open the

oven door carefully.

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 while heating or

cleaning will damage the appliance and could result in

injury.

WARNING

This appliance should not be installed with a ventilation

system that directs air in a downward direction toward

the range. This type of ventilation system may cause

ignition and combustion problems with the appliance

resulting in personal injury, property damage, or

unintended operation. Ventilating systems that direct the

air upwards do not have any restriction.

WARNING

State of California Proposition 65 Warnings:

This product contains chemicals known to the State of

California to cause cancer, birth defects or other

reproductive harm.

WARNING:

Avoid using high flame setting with a pan larger than the

grate or with one that spans more than one burner, such

Ensure that the burner caps are correctly seated on the

burner bases of the range's cooktop (see Figure 16

and Figure 17 on Page 14). Turn on each burner to

check for proper flame color. See "Flame Description"

on page 15 for details.

Before baking or broiling, the oven and broiler should

be turned on to burn off the manufacturing oils using

one of the two following methods:

• Turn on kitchen ventilation (or if vent hood is a

recirculation type open a window). Turn the oven

on to 450°F (230°C) for 20 to 30 minutes; then turn

the broiler to BROIL for the same length of time.

Please note that it is normal for small amounts of

smoke to be visible from the range during this initial

breaking-in process.

• Turn on kitchen ventilation (or if vent hood is a

recirculation type open a window). Remove oven

racks. Set oven into self clean cycle and let self

clean run (see "Self=Cleaning the Oven" on

page 31).

Please note that some pets or humans can be sensitive to

the odors created during the self-cleaning process whether

it is a manufacturing residue burn off or food, so it is

recommended that those potentially affected be removed

from the kitchen area during the self-clean process.

The THERMADOR PROFESSIONAL ® range occasionally

has a smell or smoke when first used. These smells or

smoke comes from the burning off of manufacturing

residues and is typical of any new oven regardless of

manufacturer.

Please read "Care and Maintenance" on page 31 before

cleaning the oven racks,

NOTE:

It is normal for the cooling process to push heated air out

into the room when the oven is on.

The Cooktop

Sealed STAR ®Burners

Figure 10: STAR Brass Burner Base

Your new range has sealed STAR burners. Each burner

has a unique QuickClean ® base feature which allows the

burner and area around the burner to be easier to clean.

There are no burner parts under the cooktop to clean,

disassemble or adjust.

The cooktop features four or six gas surface burners; each

rated at 18,000 BTU/HR (15,000 BTU/HR using Propane).

On all models, the two left burners have the exclusive

ExtraLow ® feature, the remaining burners are standard.

Each burner has its own control knob.

Operation of the Burners

• Press in on the knob and turn it counter-clockwise to

the HI setting on the knob.

• The igniter for the selected burner clicks and sparks.

• After burner ignition, the igniter stops clicking.

• Rotate the knob to any flame setting between HI and

SIM.

• The blue signal light, between the burner knobs, will

light when adjacent burners are lit. The light will remain

on until the adjacent burners are turned off.

BTU for Standard Burners

• HI is equivalent to 18,000 BTU

using Propane).

• SIM is equivalent to 2,100 BTU

HR (15,000 BTU / HR

HR

BTU for ExtraLow ® Burner

• HI is equivalent to 18,000 BTU HR (15,000 BTU / HR

using Propane).

• SIM is equivalent to 3,000 BTU / HR

• XLO® is equivalent to 370 BTU / HR

ExtraLow ®Burners

The controls for the two left burners, front and rear, have

flame settings even lower than the standard SIM settings.

Figure 14: ExtraLow Burner Control Knob

The drawing shows that the control knob has an additional

range between the SIM and XLO settings. When the knob

is set within this range, the flame cycles off and on. By

varying the length of time the flame isoffand on, the heat is

reduced even further to cook delicate foods. For example,

these very low settings are suitable for simmering and

poaching, melting chocolate and butter, holding cooked

foods at temperatures without scorching or burning, etc.

Operation of the ExtraLow Burners

• XLO, the very lowest setting, is achieved by cycling the

flame ON for approximately 8 seconds and OFF for 52

seconds of each minute.

• When the knob is set just below the SIM setting, the

flame will cycle ON for approximately 52 seconds and

OFF for 8 seconds of each minute.

• To vary the amount of low heat to suit the food and

quantity, the control can be set anywhere within the

SlM and XLO range marked on the knob.

ExtraLow Techniques

• The type and quantity of food affects which setting to

use.

• The pan selected affects the setting. Its size, type,

material, and whether a lid is used, all affect the

consistency of the cooking temperature.

• To maintain a low or simmer heat, bring food to a

rolling boil. Stir well, then cover the pan and lower the

heat to a setting just below SlM.

• Check periodically to see if the control knob should be

turned to another setting.

• If an over-size pan is used, the simmer action may

occur mainly in the center of the pan. To equalize the

temperature throughout the food, stir the food around

the outer edges of the pan into the food in the center.

• It is normal to stir food occasionally while simmering.

This is especially important when simmering for several

hours, such as for a homemade spaghetti sauce or

beans.

• When lowering the flame setting, adjust it in small

steps.

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

back to a boil before re-setting to a higher heat.

• It is normal not to see simmer bubbles immediately

after the food has been stirred.

There may be bubbling when the flame cycles ON and

no bubbles when the flame is OFF. Even when the

flame is OFF, there will be steam and a slight quiver on

the liquid's surface.

Each burner has its own electronic igniter that sparks when

the burner is turned on. Each burner should light in 4

seconds or less. If a burner does not light, check to see that

the cap is positioned correctly on the base.

CAUTION

DO NOT touch the STAR @burners when the igniters are

sparking.

English 13

if a burner fails to ignite, refer to the section "Before

Calling For Service" on page 38.

Checking Burner Cap

Placement

Check each burner to make sure there is no gap

between the burner cap and burner base. See

Figure 16 and Figure 17: Correct and Incorrect Bumer

Cap Placement to see examples of correct and

incorrect placements of the burner cap.

You may gently try to move the burner caps from side

to side to check if the caps are properly placed on the

burner bases. When properly placed, each burner cap

will rest flat on top of its burner base, and completely

cover the star-shape of the burner base when viewed

from the top as shown in Figure 16: "Correct Burner

Cap Placement".

Figure 15: STAR®Burner Components

Burner Cap Placement

The burner caps must be properly placed on the burner

bases 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.

• Burners do not ignite.

• Burner flames light unevenly.

• Burner emits gas odor.

WARNING

To prevent flare-ups and avoid the creation of harmful

by-products, do not use the cooktop without all burner

caps and all burner grates properly positioned.

I WARNING

To prevent burns, do not touch burner caps or grates

while hot. Turn the cooktop off and allow the burners to

cool.

Figure 16: Correct Burner Cap Placement

Figure 17: Incorrect Burner Cap Placement

English 14

Automatic Re-Ignition

If any one or more burners blow out, the electronic igniter

automatically activates to re-light the flame. Do not touch

the burners when the igniters are active.

iMPORTANT:

• For proper combustion do not use the cooktop without

the burner grates in place.

• There is a slight sound associated with gas combustion

and ignition. This is a normal condition.

• On cooktops using propane gas (LP), a slight "pop"

sound may be heard at the burner ports a few seconds

after the burner has been turned off.

Power Failure

• In the event of a power failure, only the standard

burners can be manually lit. It is necessary to light each

one individually.

• If the cooktop is being used when the power failure

occurs, turn all knobs to the OFF position.

• The standard burners can be lit by holding a match at

the ports and turning the control knob to the HI

position. Wait until the flame is burning all around the

burner cap before adjusting the flame to the desired

height.

• The ExtraLow ® burners cannot be used during a power

failure. Be sure to turn them off.

Ii

If an ExtraLow burner is on when a power failure

occurs, it cannot be turned back on until the knob is

first turned off.

The griddle cannot be used during a power failure.

If you smell gas, refer to safety precautions listed on

page 1.

WARNING

In the event of a power failure, turn all knobs to the OFF

position. Only the Standard burners can be lit manually.

Flame Height

• The correct flame height depends on 1) size and

material of pan being used; 2) food being cooked; and

3) amount of liquid in the pan.

Never extend the flame beyond the base of the pan.

Use a low or medium flame for pan materials that

conduct the heat slowly, such as porcelain coated steel

or glass-ceramic.

Flame Description

• The burner flame color should be blue with no yellow

on the tips. It is not uncommon to see orange in the

flame color; this indicates the burning of airborne

impurities in the gas and will disappear with use.

Blue

-- Secondary Cone

ht Blue

y Cone

Figure 18: Flame Color

With propane (LP) gas, slight yellow tips on the

cone are normal.

The flame should burn completely around the burner

cap. If it doesn't, check that the cap is positioned

correctly on the base and that the ports are not

blocked.

The flame should be stable with no excessive noise or

fluttering.

Cookware Recommendations

WARNING

To avoid risk of serious injury, damage to appliance or

cookware, please observe the following:

• Bakeware, such as large casserole pans, cookie

sheets, etc. should never be used on the cooktop.

Placement of large stock pots should be staggered

when used on the cooktop.

• Do not let plastic, paper or cloth come in contact with a

hot burner grate. They may melt or catch fire.

• Never let a pan boil dry. This can damage your pan and

the cooking surface.

• Professional quality pans with metal handles are

recommended because plastic handles can melt or

blister if the flame extends up the side of the pan.

Professional quality pans are found at restaurant

supply stores and gourmet specialty shops. All

cookware should have these characteristics: good heat

conductivity, good balance, correctly sized base

diameter, a heavy, fiat base, and a proper fitting lid.

• For best cooking results, the flame should be contained

under the bottom of the pan.

• Aluminum and copper are pan materials that conduct

the heat quickly and evenly. These metals are

sometimes attached to the base or in the core between

stainless steel.

I

Figure 19: Base Diameter

Select the base diameter to match the diameter of the

flame. The diameter of the flame should be the same

size as the pan base or slightly smaller. Oversize or

under size pans sacrifice cooking performance. A 5½"

(140 mm) base size is generally the smallest

recommended.

Avoid using high flame setting with a pan larger than

the grate or with one that spans more than one burner,

such as a griddle, for prolonged periods of time. This

can result in poor combustion that generates harmful

by-products.

Figure 21: Flat Base Pan

• A heavy, flat base is more apt to remain flat when

heated. Pan bases that are warped, dented, ridged or

too lightweight will heat unevenly. Heat and cool pans

gradually to avoid sudden temperature changes which

tend to distort cookware. Do not add cold water to a hot

pan.

• A properly fitting lid will shorten cooking time and make

it possible to use lower heat settings.

Itttl

Figure 20: Balanced Pan

• Balance is important for stability and even cooking. The

handle must not be heavier than the pan and tilt it

unevenly. A pan must sit level on the grate without

rocking or wobbling.

• Food packaged in aluminum foil should not be placed

directly on the burner grate. Aluminum foil can melt

during cooking.
