Installation Instructions English 5

Installation

Planning Information

Before using your appliance, be sure to read this manual.

Pay special attention to the Important Safety Instructions

located at the beginning of the manual.

STEP 1: Ventilation

Requirements

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

with all THERMADOR

®

ranges.

Due to the high heat of the rangetop burners, do not install

a microwave oven/ventilator combination above the range,

as these types of units do not provide the proper ventilation

and are not suitable for use with the range.

IMPORTANT:

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 compo-

nents which must be considered when planning the instal-

lation.

Ventilation Preparation

1. Select Hood and Blower Models:

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

minimum, equal the width of the range. Where

space permits, a hood larger in width than the

range may be desirable for improved ventilation

performance.

• For island installations, the hood width should

overhang the range 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 (see

“Installation Clearances”).

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.

TOOLS NEEDED

(2) ½” wrenches 1/8” (3.17mm) drill bit

3/16” (4.76 mm) drill bit 12” Adjustable wrench

Hand or electric drill Tape measure

Phillips & flathead screwdrivers Marking instrument

Level Furniture dolly

T-20 Torx screwdriver Protective gloves

ITEMS NOT INCLUDED

Drywall/Concrete Anchors Pipe Compound/Tape

Rope/Twine ¾” (19 mm) Flex Line

2 – NPT Flare Adapters

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.

Installation Instructions English 6

STEP 2: Cabinet Preparation

• The range is a free standing unit. If the unit is to be

placed adjacent to cabinets, the clearances shown in

“Installation Clearances” on page 7 are required. The

same clearances apply to island installations, except

for the overhead cabinets, which must have a space

wide enough to accept the flared island hood.

• The range should not be recessed into the cabinets

beyond the edge of the front face of the oven (see

clearances beginning on page 8).

• The gas and electrical supply should be within the

zones shown in Figure 5 on page 11

• Any openings in the wall behind the range and in the

floor under the range must be sealed.

• When installing against a combustible surface, a Low

Backguard is required. A THERMADOR Low

Backguard must be purchased separately (see

Table 3, “Backguard Kit Model Numbers,” on page 18).

• When using the Flush Island Trim, THERMADOR

recommends a minimum 12'' (305 mm) rear clearance

to a combustible surface (see Figure 4, Installation

Clearances with Flush Island Trim). Clearances from

non-combustible materials are not part of the ANSI

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

of less than 12'' (305 mm) must be approved by the

local codes and/or by the local authority having

jurisdiction.

• When the range is installed against a combustible side

wall a minimum clearance of 5'' (127 mm) is needed

from the side of the range to the wall (see “Installation

Clearances”).

• Always keep appliance area clear from combustible

materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and

liquids.

• The maximum depth of overhead cabinets installed on

either side of the hood is 13" (330 mm) Wall cabinets

must be 18'' (457 mm) above the countertop.

• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation

air to the unit.

• 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 (see “Installation Clearances”).

Flame retardant materials bear the mark:

UNDERWRITERS LABORATORIES INC. CLASSIFIED

MINERAL AND FIBER BOARDS SURFACE BURNING

CHARACTERISTICS, followed by the flame spread and

smoke ratings. These designations are shown as “FHC

(FIame Spread/Smoke Developed).” Materials with “O”

flame spread ratings are flame retardant. Local codes may

allow other flame spread ratings. It is the responsibility of

the installer to ensure installation is in accordance with

these ratings.

Gas and Electric Supply Clearances

NOTICE:

— If not already present, install gas shut-off valve in an

easily accessible location.

— Make sure all users know where and how to shut off

the gas supply to the range.

— Any opening in the wall behind the appliance and any

opening in the floor under the appliance must be

sealed.

The range must be connected only to the type of gas

for which it is certified. If the range is to be connected to

propane gas, ensure that the propane gas supply tank is

equipped with its own high pressure regulator in addition to

the pressure regulator supplied with the range (see “STEP

6: Gas Requirements and Hookup” on page 16).

NOTE: The range is designed for flush installation to the

Installation Instructions English 12

Installation of the range must be planned so that the rough-

in of the terminal block for the receptacle will allow

maximum clearance to the rear of the unit. To minimize

binding when the unit is connected to the receptacle or

terminal block, orient the receptacle and slide back into

position.

When the power supply cord is connected to the mating

receptacle, the combined plug/receptacle connection

should protrude no more than 2'' (51 mm) from the rear

wall, see Figure 6.

STEP 3: Unpacking and

Moving the Range

Unpacking the Range

1. Remove the outer carton and packing materials from

the shipping pallet but leave the adhesive-backed foam

layer over brushed-metal surfaces, to protect finish

from scratches, until the range is installed in its final

position.

2. Remove the door(s) (see “STEP 4: Door Removal and

Adjustment” on page 13). This will create an estimated

reduction in the weight as shown in Table 1 and allow

the range to pass through 30" (762 mm) doorways (see

clearances beginning on page 8).

3. The grates, griddle plate, burner caps, and oven racks

must be removed to facilitate handling. Do not remove

the griddle element and tray assembly.

Moving the Range

Due to the weight, it is strongly recommended that a

furniture dolly with soft wheels or an air lift should be used

to move this unit. The weight must be supported uniformly

across the bottom.

All ranges are held to the pallet by (4) bolts through a wood

block center. The two front pallet bolts are accessible only

after removing the Door Trim located beneath the doors.
