Important Installation Information
GAS type verification
Verify the type of gas supplied to the location. Ensure that
the appliance is connected to the type of gas for which it is
certified. 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.
Important
A backguard must be utilized when there is less than a
12” horizontal clearance between combustible materi-
als and the back edge of the range. A Thermador
backguard must be ordered separately and installed at
the rear of the range (A Low Back is supplied with 30"
model). For island installations and other installations
with more than 12” clearance, an optional stainless
steel Island Trim is available to cover the backguard
mounting flanges.
Verify that the appliance is correct for the type of gas
being provided. Refer to Step 5 on Page 12 before
proceeding with the installation.
