SECTION FOUR: USING THE COOKTOP
A VENTILATING HOOD of adequate cubic-feet-per-minute capacity vented to the outside of the house
is recommended for installation ABOVE THE RANGE. For most kitchens with a wall mounted hood, a
certified hood is recommended. The hood must be installed according to installation instructions
furnished with the hood and local building code requirements. Refer to ventilation requirements in the
Installation Instructions for additional information.
THE GRILL
(Available on some models)
When cooking food on the grill you
will achieve the same flavor as
meat cooked on an outdoor grill.
This flavor is actually created by
the fats and juices that are brought
to the surface of the food and
seared by the heat from the grill
plate.
Your new Thermador Professional
grill is equipped with an aluminized
steel tube burner typical of those
used in restaurants. Automatic
ignition is used to eliminate the
continuous pilots found on
restaurant grills. The grill burner is
rated at 12,000 BTU/HR.
NOTE: When used with pro-
pane gas, a slight pop or
flash may occur at the burner
ports a few seconds after the
burner has been turned off.
This usually occurs after the
burner has been on awhile.
This is normal.

Using the Gas Grill

AUTOMATIC
REIGNITION
The electronic igniter auto-
matically glows to light the
burner. DO NOT TOUCH any
burner while the igniter is
heating.
BURNER EFFICIENCY AND
FLAME CHARACTERISTICS
®
The burner flame should be blue
in color and stable with no yellow
tips, excessive noise or lifting. It
should burn completely along both
sides of the burner tube.
An improper gas-air mixture may
cause either a yellow tipped flame
or burner flutter. Have the flame
adjusted by a technician. Foreign
particles in the gas line may cause
an orange flame during initial use.
This will disappear with use.
If the flame is uneven, flutters,
makes excessive noise or lifts,
check to see if the BURNER ports
are clogged. If the ports are
clogged, use a wire, a straightened
paper clip or needle to clear the
ports. If the condition persists,
contact a service agency for
adjustment.

Control Knob

CONTROL KNOB
The burner control has an infinite
number of heat settings, and there
are no fixed positions on the control
knob between HI and LO. To turn
the burner on, press the control
knob and rotate it counter-
clockwise to the position. After
the flame is completely around the
burner, adjust the knob to the
desired heat setting.
