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 millibars) from the propane
gas tank to the pressure regulator.
IMPORTANT
• A backguard must be utilized when there is less
than a 12" horizontal clearance between com-
bustible materials 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 16
before proceeding with the installation.
