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 range. The
maximum gas pressure to this appliance must
not exceed 14.0 inches water column (34.9 mb)
from the propane gas tank to the pressure
regulator.
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 ranges are certified for use with
natural gas or propane (LP) gas. Make certain the range
matches the gas type available.
Important
A backguard must be utilized when there is less than
a 12” horizontal clearance between combustible mate-
rials and the back edge of the range. The Thermador
Low Back backguard must be ordered separately and
installed at the rear of the range. 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 13 before
