Step 7: Backguard Installation - Thermador PRG364GDH Installation Manual

• Installer — show the owner the location of the circuit
breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy reference.
Important:
Dedicated 20 AMP service is required for range with
electric griddle.

Step 7: Backguard Installation

• The backguard must be attached before sliding the
range into the final, installed position. A Low Back or
Pot-and-Pan Shelf must be installed when there is less
than 12" clearance from a combustible back wall and
the back of the range above the cooking surface.
• A Flush Island Trim is available for covering the
backguard area of the range for island installations;
however, the Flush Island Trim can only be used where
there is a minimum of 12" horizontal clearance
between a combustible back wall and the back of the
range.
• The backguard is inserted inside the guide channels on
the back of the range, as shown in the illustration.
(Remove the griddle assembly for sufficient installation
clearance on griddle models.) Using a T-20 size Torx
driver, fasten the backguard with four (4) Torx-head
screws to the range side panels, and eight (8) screws
to the bottom flange and area around the cooling fan.
See the (12) locations identified (by arrows) in the
illustration.
Important:
All 12 screw locations must be used for proper air
movement behind the backguard.
• The Pot-and-Pan Shelf models require pre-assembly of
the top panel to the shell using nine (9) of the enclosed
Torx-head screws. For sufficient load strength, YOU
MUST attach the two (2) Torx-head screws through the
back corners of the top down into the shelf.
• To secure the front of the back guard, install three (3)
of the Torx head screws through the lower front panel
of the backguard, into the flange at the back of the
range's cooktop.
• The Pot-and-Pan Shelf models provide a shelf above
the cooktop to keep foods hot or store cooking pans.
