Check local building codes for the proper method of appliance installation. Local codes vary. Installation, electrical connections and grounding must comply with all applicable codes. In the absence of local codes the appliance should be installed in accordance with the National Electric Code ANSI Z223.1 current issue and National Gas Code ANSI/NFPA 70 – current issue. In Canada, installation must be in accordance with the CAN 1-B149.1 and .2 – Installation Codes for Gas Burning Appliances and/or local codes.

This appliance is equipped with an intermittent/interrupted ignition device that cycles the two far left surface burners on and off when in the ExtraLow® setting.

Gas Supply

Natural Gas

6” water column (14.9 mb) min., 14” (34.9 mb) maximum

Propane Gas

11” water column (27.4 mb) min., 14” (34.9 mb) maximum

All sealed burners are rated at 18,000 BTU/HR (*15,000 BTU/HR on LP). *All models are convertible to LP/Propane gas using an accessory conversion kit.

IMPORTANT:

When installing against a combustible surface, a Low Back guard is required. A THERMADOR® Low Back guard must be purchased separately. See “Step 6: Backguard Installation” on page 13 for backguard and installation information.

When using the Flush Island Trim, THERMADOR recommends a minimum 12” (305 mm) rear clearance to a combustible surface (see Figure 1, Clearance Requirements). 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.

It is strongly recommended that this appliance be installed in conjunction with a suitable overhead vent hood (see “Step 1: Ventilation Requirements” on page 3). 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.

CAUTION:

When connecting the unit to propane gas, make certain the propane gas tank is equipped with its own high- pressure regulator in addition to the pressure regulator supplied with the rangetop. The maximum gas pressure to this appliance must not exceed 14.0” water column (34.9 mb) from the propane gas tank to the pressure regulator.

CAUTION:

This unit is designed as a cooking appliance. Based on safety considerations, never use it for warming or heating a room.

CAUTION:

To eliminate risk of burns or fire caused by reaching over heated surface units, cabinet storage located above the surface units should be avoided.
