Thermador PGR36 Range User Manual


 
SECTION TWO: BEFORE YOU BEGIN
1. Check that you have the items listed on Page 6.
2. Record the Model and Serial number on Page
42. See "Data Rating Plate." These may be
used for any future contacts with your servicer or
the factory. Enter this information on the Prod-
uct Registration Card included with this product
then mail it to the indicated address.
3. Optional Accessories. Grill Cover, Chopping
Board, Griddle Cover, Wok Support Ring and
other accessories are available from your
Thermador Dealer. Contact the Thermador Parts
Department toll-free at 800/735-4327 for more
information.
4. Position the racks correctly in the oven.
The correct rack position depends on the recipe
and the cooking mode. The rack positions are
numbered from the bottom of the oven, like an
elevator. Rack position 3 is the most frequently
used position. Place rack(s) in the proper posi-
tion before turning on the oven.
Insert the racks as follows:
a. Hold the rack with the back rail in the up
position towards the rear of the oven. Slip it
into the oven so the rack slides are between
the rack and the rack guides.
b. Tip the front of the rack up slightly as it slides
into the oven so that the safety stops clear
the rack slides. The safety stops on the back
of the rack will keep it from sliding out of the
oven when it is pulled forward.
Remove all packaging materials
and temporary labels from oven
and cooktop.

CAUTION
Before Using Your Range for the First Time
BEFORE BAKING OR BROILING, the oven and
broiler should be turned on to burn off the manufac-
turing oils. Turn the oven on to 450°F (230°C) for 20
to 30 minutes; then turn the broiler to "Broil" for
same length of time. You may wish to turn on the
ventilator above your range during this time.
Please read Page 40 in Section 6: Care and
Maintenance before cleaning the oven racks.
Aluminum foil should never be used to cover
the oven racks or to line the oven. It may
cause damage to the oven. Do not remove
the infrared burner in the gas oven.
