Burner Cap Placement; Placing The Burner Grates; Preparing The Electric Griddle - Thermador Professional Pro Grand Series Installation Manual

8.7 Burner cap placement
The burner caps must be properly placed for the cooktop
to function properly.
If the burner cap is not properly placed, one or more of the
following may occur:
Burner flames are too high
¡
Flames shoot out of the burners
¡
Stainless steel discolorations
¡
Burners do not ignite
¡
Burner flames light unevenly
¡
Burner emits gas odor
¡
WARNING
To prevent flare-ups do not use the cooktop without all
burner caps and all burner grates properly positioned.
CAUTION
To prevent burns, do not touch burner caps or grates while
hot.
Turn the cooktop off and allow the burners to cool.
▶
Your rangetop has sealed Star® burners. There are no
burner parts under the rangetop to clean, disassemble or
adjust.
Placing the burner caps
Each cap has a letter (B, D, or F) cast in the underside of
the cap that corresponds to a letter (B, D, or F) cast in the
burner base that is attached to the appliance.
Place each burner cap on its correct burner base per its
1.
corresponding letter designation.
Place the burner cap gently on top of base so that the
2.
prongs of the burner base fit snugly into the groove of
the burner cap.
Check each burner to make sure there is no gap
3.
between the burner cap and burner base.
Gently try to move the burner caps from side to side
‒
to check if the caps are properly placed on the burner
bases.
When properly placed, each burner cap rests flat on
‒
top of its burner base, and completely covers the
star-shape of the burner base when viewed from the
top.
8.8 Placing the burner grates
For proper combustion do not use the rangetop without
the burner grates in place.
Place the burner grates flat-side down and align them
1.
into the rangetop recess.
The burner grates should rest flush against each other
2.
and against the sides of the recess.
8.9 Preparing the electric griddle
WARNING
To avoid risk of injury, never operate the griddle without
the griddle plate installed.
Check the griddle plate adjustment by pouring two
1.
tablespoons of water on the back of the griddle plate.
