STEP2: CABINETPREPARATION

1.The range is a free standing unit. If the unit is to be placed adjacent to cabinets, the clearances shown in Fig. 1 are required. The same clearances apply to island installations, except for the overhead cabi- nets, which must have a space wide enough to accept the flared island hood, as indicated in Fig. 1.

2.The PRDS48 Ranges must be placed with the oven door projecting out from the cabinet face. The cabinet face should line up with the oven front frame, which is the surface that the oven door closes against. (See Fig. 2b and 2c illustrating side views of 48" ranges.)

3.The gas and electrical supply should be within the zones shown in Fig. 3a, 3b and 3c.

4.The maximum depth of over head cabinets installed on either side of the hood is 13".

5.Any openings in the wall behind the range and in the floor under the range must be sealed.

6.When there is less than a 12"

horizontal clearance between combustible material ∆ and the back edge of the range above the cooking surface, a Thermador Low Back or High Shelf backguard must be installed. (See Fig. 2a). When

clearance to combustible material ∆ is over 12", a Thermador Island Trim may be used. (See Fig. 2b). Except in the case of 30" Ranges, backguards must be ordered separately. Figures 2a, 2b and 2c indicate the space

required for each type of backguard.

7.Always keep appliance area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.

8.Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air to the unit.

CAUTION:

Do not install the Model PRDS48 ranges such that the oven door is flush with the cabinet face. A flush installa- tion could result in damage to the cabinets due to exposure to high heat.

∆As defined in the “National Fuel Gas Code” (ANSI Z223.1, Latest Edition).
