Ventilation requirements

9 WARNING

This appliance should not be installed with a

ventilation system that directs air in a downward

direction toward the appliance. 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.

Refer to the Ventilation Planning Guide for approved

ventilation combinations.

It is strongly recommended that this appliance be installed

in conjunction with a Thermador vent hood. 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.

Downdraft ventilation should not be used. The Ventilation

Planning Guide indicates the ventilation hood options and

blower capacity guidelines that are recommended for use.

Due to the high heat of the rangetop burners, installing a

microwave oven with a ventilation system over the

rangetop is not recommended on anything other than the

30'' 5–Burner. Refer to OTR manufacturer’s installation

manual for clearances.

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.

NOTICE: Most range hoods contain combustible

components which must be considered when planning the

installation.

Ventilation preparation

To prepare for the ventilation

1. Select hood and blower models:

• For wall installations, the hood width must, at a

minimum, equal the width of the range/rangetop.

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/rangetop by a

minimum of 3'' (76 mm) on each side.

2. Hood placement:

• For best smoke elimination, the lower edge of the

hood should be installed 30'' (762 mm) above the

range cooking surface.

• If the hood contains any combustible materials

(i.e. a wood covering), it must be installed a

minimum of 36'' (914 mm) above the cooking

surface.

3. 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.

Page. 6

Installation clearances

• To ensure professional results, the cabinet and

countertop openings should be prepared by a

qualified cabinet worker.

• The same clearances apply to island installations,

except for the overhead cabinets, which must have a

space wide enough to accept the island hood.

• See the Ventilation Planning Guide for recommended

hood options. Due to the high heat of the burners,

installing a microwave oven with a ventilation system

over the appliance is not recommended on anything

other than the 30'' 5–Burner. Refer to the OTR

manufacturer’s installation manual for clearances.

• The rangetop is designed to hang from the

countertop by its flanges. The countertop however

must be strong enough to support this rangetop. It

may be necessary to add a supporting cleat along

each side or a 2 x 4 corner brace (see page 10).

Another alternative would be to construct a deck to

set the rangetop on.

• The rangetop can be installed in various positions with

the front either flush or projecting, depending on the

countertop’s depth.

• The gas and electrical supply must be located in an

area that is accessible without requiring removal of the

rangetop.

• The shaded area behind the appliance indicates an

opportunity to discolor the back wall under certain

cooking conditions.

• There must be a minimum of 5'' (127 mm) side

clearance from the appliance to combustible vertical

surfaces above the 36'' (914 mm) counter height.

• Within the 5'' (127 mm) side clearance to combustible

vertical surfaces above 36'' (91.4 cm), the maximum

wall cabinet depth must be 13'' (330 mm).

• Wall cabinets within this 5'' (127 mm) side clearance

must be 18'' (45.7 cm) above the 36'' (914 mm) high

countertop.

• There is a 36'' (914 mm) minimum clearance required

between the top of the cooking surface and the

bottom of an unprotected cabinet. A 30'' (762 mm)

clearance can be used when the bottom of the wood

or metal cabinet is protected by not less than 1/4''

(6 mm) 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.

• Establish the centerline of the appliance’s desired

location. It should be the same as the center of the

overhead ventilation hood.

• Cut the openings for the following installations:

• Wall installation, see page 10.

• Island installation, see page 10.

REAR CLEARANCE REQUIREMENTS:

• To avoid staining on the back wall, high temperature,

non-porous construction materials suitable for use in a

cooking environment are recommended.

• Models PCG305xx, PRD305xx, and PRD606xx are

suitable for 0'' rear clearance to combustible surfaces.

• All Other Models:

• When using the included Island Trim a minimum

6" (152 mm)* rear clearance is required to a

combustible surface*.

• When installing against a combustible surface, a

Thermador

®

Low Backguard is required for a 0''

rear clearance to the combustible surface. A

Thermador Low Backguard must be purchased

separately.

• A rear clearance to a surface covered in a non-

combustible material (metal, ceramic tile, brick,

marble, or stone)*

 is 0'' when using the included

Island Trim.

*Clearances of less than 6'' (152 mm) should be approved by the

local codes and/or by the local authority having jurisdiction.

 Clearances from non-combustible materials are not part of the

ANSI Z21.1 scope and are not certified by CSA.

NOTES:

• If a solid side cabinet wall exists on one or both sides,

you will need to notch the front corner of the cabinet

to match the countertop notch and to allow clearance

for the rangetop front (see Detail A, page 10).

• If a supporting deck is used, the sides or bottom of

the cutout may be solid combustible or non-

combustible material. If the bottom is solid, provide a

12'' by 12'' (305 mm x 305 mm) cutout in the left rear

corner of the supporting deck. This will provide

clearance for the gas inlet and power cord.

• Always keep appliance area clean and free from

combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable

vapors and liquids.

• DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion and

ventilation air to the unit.

Burner test

9 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.

9 WARNING

To prevent burns, do not touch burner caps or grates

while hot. Turn the cooktop off and allow the burners

to cool.

Install any loose components, such as burner caps and

grates that may have been removed earlier. Be certain that

burner caps seat properly into the burner bases. Before

testing operation of the appliance, verify that the unit and

the gas supply have been carefully checked for leaks and

that the unit has been connected to the electrical power

supply. Turn the manual gas shut-off valve to the open

position.

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.

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.

To place the burner caps

1. Place each burner cap on its correct burner base per

its corresponding letter designation.

2. Place burner cap gently on top of base so that the

prongs of the burner base fit snugly into the groove of

the burner cap.

Checking the burner cap placement

• Check each burner to make sure there is no gap

between the burner cap and burner base.

• 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 below.

Burner grate placement

To install the burner grates

1. Place grates flat-side down and align into the

rangetop recess.

2. Grates should rest flush against each other and

against the sides of the recess.

Test rangetop burners

See figures below for appropriate flame characteristics. If

any of the rangetop burners continue to burn mostly or

completely yellow, verify that the burner cap is positioned

properly on the burner base, then re-test. If flame

characteristics do not improve, call Thermador service.

To test burner ignition

1. Select a rangetop burner knob. Push in and turn the

knob to HI.

• The igniter will produce a clicking sound. Once

the air has been purged from the supply lines, the

burner should light within four seconds.

2. Turn burner to LO. Verify that the flame completely

surrounds the burner.

• There should be a flame at each burner port and

there should be no air gap between the flame and

the burner. If any burners do not carry over, call

Thermador service.

3. Repeat the ignition and flame test for each rangetop

burner.

The burners that feature XLO

®

, cause the flame to cycle

on and off when the knob is set to the XLO function. This

is normal operation.

When flame is properly adjusted:

• There should be a flame at each burner port.

• There should be no air gap between the flame and

burner port.

Call Thermador service if:

• Any of the burners do not light.

• Any of the burners continue to burn yellow.
