THE GRILL
(Available on some models)
When cooking food on the grill you
will achieve the same flavor as meat
cooked on an outdoor barbecue.
This flavor is actually created by the
fats and juices that are brought to the
surface of the food and caramelized
by
the
intense
heat from the stainless
steel radiant.
Most types of foods, steaks, chops,
patties, poultry pieces, etc., cook
somewhat faster on the gas grill with
its constant regulated heat than on
an ordinary charcoal grill.
Your new Thermador Professional
®
grill is equipped with an aluminized
steel U-shaped tube burner typical of
those used in restaurants. Automatic
ignition is used to eliminate the
continuous pilots found on restaurant
grills. The grill burner is rated at
18,000 BTU/HR.
AUTOMATIC
REIGNITION
The electronic igniter auto-
matically sparks the burner to
light. DO NOT TOUCH any
burner while the igniters are
sparking.
A VENTILATING HOOD of adequate cubic-feet-per-minute capacity vented to the outside of the house is
recommended for installation ABOVE THE RANGE AND GRILL. For most kitchens with a wall mounted
hood, a certified hood
is recommended. The hood must be installed according to installation instructions
furnished with the hood and local building code requirements.
CONTROL KNOB
The burner control has an infinite
number of heat settings, and there
are no fixed positions on the control
knob between HI and LO. To turn
the burner on, press the control
knob and rotate it counterclockwise
to the LITE position.
Adjust the knob to the desired heat
setting.

NOTE: When used with pro-
pane gas, a slight pop or flash
may occur at the burner ports
a few seconds after the burner
has been turned off. This usu-
ally occurs after the burner has
been on awhile. This is normal.
BURNER EFFICIENCY
AND FLAME
CHARACTERISTICS
The burner flame should be blue in
color and stable with no yellow tips,
excessive noise or lifting. It should
burn completely along both sides of
the burner tube.
An improper gas-air mixture may
cause either a yellow tipped flame or
burner flutter. Have the flame
adjusted by a technician. Foreign
particles in the gas line may cause an
orange flame during initial use. This
will disappear with use.
If the flame is uneven, flutters, makes
excessive noise or lifts, check to see
if the BURNER ports are clogged. If
the ports are clogged, use a wire, a
straightened paper clip or needle to
clear the ports. If the condition
persists, contact a service agency for
adjustment.
