This appliance has been tested in ac-
cordance with ANSI Z21.1 Current Is-
sue, Standard for Household Cooking
Appliances (USA) and in accordance
with CAN 1.1-M81 Domestic Gas
Ranges (CANADIAN).
It is strongly recommended that this
appliance be installed in conjunction
with a suitable overhead vent hood.
(See Step 1 for Ventilation Require-
ments.) Due to the high heat capability
of this unit, particular attention should
be paid to the hood and duct work
installation to assure it meets local
building codes. To eliminate risk of
burns or fire caused by reaching
over heated surface units, cabinet
storage located above the surface
units should be avoided.
Check local building codes for the proper
method of appliance installation. Local
codes vary. Installation, electrical con-
nections and grounding must comply
with all applicable codes. In the ab-
sence of local codes the appliance
should be installed in accordance with
the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1
Current Issue and National Electrical
It is strongly recommended that a
suitable exhaust hood be installed above
the appliance. Downdraft ventilation
should not be used. The table below
indicates the Thermador hoods, by
model number, that are recommended
for use with the 24" Wok and 36" and
48" cooktops.
1. Select Hood and Blower Models:
• For wall installations, the hood width
must, at a minimum, equal the nominal
width of the appliance cooking surface.
Where space permits, a hood larger in
width than the cooking surface may be
desirable for improved ventilation
performance.
• For island installations, the hood width
should, at a minimum, overhang the
NOMINAL COOKTOP WIDTH
24" WOK
36" COOKTOP
48" COOKTOP
Notes:
* For wall installations where adequate space is available, the installer or user may elect to use a hood that is wider than the
cooktop cooking surface. This may be particularly beneficial for those cases, such as a long duct run or heavy usage of the grill,
in which improved capturing of the cooking exhaust is desired.
** Thermador offers a choice of remote (VTR1000Q or VTR1400Q) or in-hood (VTN1000Q) blowers for use in wall installations.
IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INFORMATION
Code ANSI/NFPA 70-Current Issue. In
Canada, installation must be in accor-
dance with the CAN 1-B149.1 and .2 –
Installation Codes for Gas Burning
Appliances and/or local codes.
Be sure that the unit being installed is
correct for the type of gas being used.
This appliance is equipped with an
intermittent/interrupted ignition de-
vice that cycles the two far left surface
burners on and off when in the
®
ExtraLow
setting.
CAUTION:
(1) When connecting the unit to pro-
pane gas, make certain the propane
gas tank is equipped with its own
high pressure regulator in addition
to the pressure regulator supplied
with this unit. The maximum gas
pressure to this appliance is not to
exceed 14.0 inches water column
from the propane gas tank regula-
tor.
(2) This unit is designed as a cooking
appliance. Based on safety consid–
erations, never use it for warming
or heating a room.
STEP 1: VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS
appliance cooking surface by 6" on both
sides.
CAUTION: Ventilation hoods and
blowers are designed for use with single
wall ducting. However, some local
building codes or inspectors may
require double wall ducting. Consult
local building codes and/or local
agencies, before starting, to assure that
hood and duct installation will meet
local requirements.
• Hood blower speeds should be
variable to reduce noise and loss of
heated or air conditioned household air
when maximum ventilation is not
required. Normally, the maximum
blower speed is only required when
using the grill.

ATTENTION:
(1) En branchant l'appareil au
gaz de propane, soyez certain
que le réservoir de gaz du
propane est équipé avec son
régulateur de haute pression
en addition du regulateur de
pression fourni avec cet
appareil. La pression de gaz
maximaie à cet appareil ne
dolt pas excéder une colonne
d'eau de 14.0 pouces du
régulateur du réservoir de gaz
du propane.
(2) Cet appareil est dessiné,
comme un appareil de
cuisson.
Basé
considérations de sécurite, ne
le jamais utiliser pour le
chauffage ou de faire chauffer
une chambre.
2. Hood Placement:
• For best smoke elimination, the lower
edge of the hood should be installed a
minimum of 30" to a maximum of 36"
above the appliance cooking surface.
(See Fig. 1).
• If the hood contains any combustible
materials (i.e., a wood covering), it must
be a minimum of 42" above the cooking
surface.
3. Consider Make-Up Air:
• Due to the high volume of ventilation
air, a source of outside replacement air
is recommended. This is particularly
important for tightly sealed and
insulated homes.
• A qualified heating and ventilating
contractor should be consulted.
