11.If the barbecue will be used with an LP cylinder, follow these steps:

C.The proper LP hose and regulator assembly must be used. The Model LPHOSE is available at your Thermador dealer. This assembly can also be purchased locally providing it meets the following specifications:

Hose length to be 24".

Regulator must be a high pressure, high volume unit capable of supplying adequate gas flow based on the input rating of the unit (refer to Gas Consumption in Section 2).

The inlet connector on the LP regulator must be compatible with the LP cylinder valve.

The hose and regulator assembly must be AGA certified for use with LP gas in an outdoor application.

B.Install supplied 1/2" NPT coupling on the end of the manifold located at the left rear bottom of the cooktop. See Fig. 1. Use a pipe sealant approved for use with LP gases on all threads.
