5. Ensure that the burner caps are correctly seated on
the burner bases of the range's cooktop. Turn on
each burner to check for proper flame color. See
"Checking Burner Cap Placement" on page 14 for
details.
6. Before baking or broiling, the oven and broiler should
be turned on to burn off the manufacturing oils using
the following method:
• Turn on kitchen ventilation (or if vent hood is a
recirculation type open a window). Turn the oven
on to 450ºF (230ºC) for 20 to 30 minutes; then turn
the broiler to BROIL for the same length of time.
Please note that it is normal for small amounts of
smoke to be visible from the range during this initial
breaking-in process.
The THERMADOR PROFESSIONAL
has a smell or smoke when first used. These smells or
smoke comes from the burning off of manufacturing
residues and is typical of any new oven regardless of
manufacturer.
Please note that some pets or humans can be sensitive to
the odors created during the burning off process, so it is
recommended that those potentially affected be removed
from the kitchen area during the baking off process.
Please read "Care and Maintenance" on page 31 before
cleaning the oven racks.
NOTE:
It is normal for the cooling process to push heated air out
into the room when the oven is on.
