Gas Type Verification

All models are certified for use with natural gas. Field conversion of the appliance for use with propane gas supply will require a conversion kit (PLPKIT). Field conversion must be done by qualified service personnel only.
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.
IMPORTANT:
When installing against a combustible surface, a Low Backguard is required. A THERMADOR® Low Backguard must be purchased separately. See the Installation Manual 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 the Installation Manual for 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.
Before using the rangetop, ensure that it is equipped with a proper backguard. Refer to the Installation Manual accompanying this appliance for more information.
WARNING:
To avoid possible burn or fire hazard, a back guard designed specifically for this rangetop must be installed whenever the rangetop is used.
