9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury to persons, in the event
of a range top grease fire, observe the following:
Smother flames with a close-fitting lid, cookie
sheet, or other metal tray, then turn off the gas
burner or the electric element. Be careful to
prevent burns. If the flames do not go out
immediately, evacuate and call the fire
department.
Never pick up a flaming pan. You may be burned.
DO NOT use water, including wet dish cloths or
towels, to extinguish flames – a violent steam
explosion will result.
Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
You know you have a class ABC extinguisher
and you already know how to operate it.
The fire is small and contained in the area
where it started.
The fire department is being called.
You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
WARNING
To eliminate risk of burns or fire caused by reaching
over heated surface units, cabinet storage located
above the surface units should be avoided.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A GREASE FIRE:
Never leave surface units unattended at high
settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low
or medium settings.
Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat
or when flambéing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette,
Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).
Clean hood filters frequently. Grease should not
be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.
Use proper pan size. Always use cookware
appropriate for the size of the appliance burner.
NEVER use any part of the appliance for storage.
Flammable materials can catch fire and plastic items may
melt or ignite. DO NOT hang articles from any part of the
appliance. Some fabrics are quite flammable and may
catch on fire.
If the appliance is near a window, be certain the curtains
do not blow over or near the appliance burners; they
could catch on fire.
ALWAYS have a working smoke detector near the kitchen.
In the event that personal clothing or hair catches fire,
drop and roll immediately to extinguish flames.
Have an appropriate fire extinguisher available nearby,
highly visible, and easily accessible near the cooking
appliance.
Smother flames from food fires, other than grease fires,
with baking soda. Never use water on cooking fires.
Whenever possible, do not operate the ventilation system
during a fire. However, DO NOT reach through fire to turn
it off.
NEVER let clothing, potholders, or other flammable
materials come in contact with or too close to any burner
or burner grate until it has cooled. Fabric may ignite and
result in personal injury.
Use only dry potholders: moist or damp potholders on hot
surfaces may cause burns from steam. DO NOT use a
towel or other bulky cloth in place of potholders. DO NOT
let potholders touch hot burners or burner grates.
For personal safety, wear proper apparel. Loose fitting
garments or hanging sleeves should never be worn while
using this appliance. Some synthetic fabrics are highly
flammable and should not be worn while cooking.
DO NOT use aluminum foil to line any part of the
appliance. Use of a foil liner could result in a shock or fire
hazard, or the obstruction of the flow of combustion and
ventilation air. Foil is an excellent heat insulator and heat
will be trapped beneath it. This will upset the cooking
performance and can damage the finish of the appliance.
WARNING
The appliance is for cooking. Based on safety
considerations, never use the appliance to warm or
heat a room. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide
poisoning and overheating of the unit. Also, such use
can damage the appliance parts.
When using the appliance: DO NOT TOUCH THE
BURNER GRATES OR THE IMMEDIATE SURROUNDING
AREA. Areas adjacent to the burners may become hot
enough to cause burns.
background
Page. 10
9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Never leave the appliance unattended when using high
flame settings. Boil overs cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite. Also, if the burner flames and
igniter are smothered with spillage, unburned gas will
escape into the room. See page 6 regarding gas leaks.
Only certain types of glass, heatproof glass-ceramic,
ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed cookware are
suitable for cooking on the burners. This type of cookware
may break with sudden temperature changes. Use only on
low or medium heat settings according to the utensil
manufacturer’s directions.
DO NOT heat or warm unopened food containers. Build-
up of pressure may cause the container to burst and cause
injury.
WARNING
During cooking, set the burner control so that the
flame heats only the bottom of the pan and does not
extend beyond the bottom of the pan. This instruction
is based on safety considerations.
Use caution to ensure that drafts like those from forced air
vents or fans do not blow flammable material toward the
flames or push the flames so that they extend beyond the
edges of the pot.
Always use pots and pans that have flat bottoms large
enough to cover the burner. The use of undersized pots
and pans could expose a portion of the flame and may
result in ignition of clothing.
WARNING
Avoid using high flame setting with a pan larger than
the grate or with one that spans more than one
burner, such as a griddle, for prolonged periods of
time. This can result in poor combustion that
generates harmful by-products.
DO NOT use pots or pans on the grill plate accessory
(purchased separately). Bakeware, such as large casserole
pans, cookie sheets, etc., should never be used on the
accessory.
DO NOT use flammable cleaners to clean the appliance.
Remove the optional cutting board or griddle cover
accessory, which is stored on top of the griddle plate,
before operating the griddle or any adjacent burners.
GREASE IS FLAMMABLE. Let hot grease cool before
attempting to handle it. Avoid letting grease deposits
collect. Clean after each use.
For proper lighting and performance of the burners, keep
the igniter ports clean. It is necessary to clean the ports
when there is a boil over or when the burner does not light
even though the electronic igniters activate.
Clean the appliance with caution. Avoid steam burns; DO
NOT use a wet sponge or cloth to clean the appliance
while it is hot. Some cleaners produce noxious fumes if
applied to a hot surface. Follow directions provided by the
cleaner manufacturer.
WARNING
After a spill or boil over, turn off the burner and using
caution due to possible hot surfaces, clean around the
burner and burner ports. After cleaning, check for
proper operation.
Be sure all controls are turned off and the appliance is cool
before using any type of aerosol cleaner on or around the
appliance. The chemical that produces the spraying action
could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts
to corrode.
WARNING
DO NOT block or obstruct the flow of air
through the ventilation openings. The vent is
located at the back of the appliance. The
vent needs to be unobstructed and open to
provide necessary airflow that is important
for proper performance.
DO NOT touch vent area while the appliance is on
and for several minutes after the appliance is off.
Some parts of the vent and surrounding areas become
hot enough to cause burns. Allow appliance sufficient
time to cool before touching or cleaning vent areas.
DO NOT position plastic or other heat-sensitive items
on or near the vent. These items could melt or ignite.
DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilation
air.
DO NOT use the grill plate accessory for cooking
excessively fatty meats or products which promote flare-
ups.
background
Page. 11
9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
When cooking fatty or oily foods on burners, the grill, or
the griddle, adjacent gas burners can ignite airborne
fumes. Use caution to avoid burns.
To avoid a fire hazard, grease accumulation must be
prevented by frequently cleaning the ventilation hood and
filters.
In case of fire or when intentionally “flaming” liquor or
other spirits on the appliance, follow manufacturer’s
instructions. Use caution when cooking foods with high
alcohol content (e.g. rum, brandy, bourbon). Alcohol
evaporates at high temperatures. There is a risk of burning
as the alcohol vapors may catch fire. Use only small
quantities of alcohol in foods.
DO NOT store or use corrosive chemicals, vapors,
flammables, or nonfood products in or near this appliance.
It is specifically designed for use when heating or cooking
food. The use of corrosive chemicals while heating or
cleaning will damage the appliance and could result in
injury.
WARNING
DO NOT leave food or cooking utensils, etc, in oven
during the self-cleaning mode of operation.
Before self-cleaning the oven (select models), remove
the broiler pan, oven racks, and any other utensils,
and excess spillage.
WARNING
This appliance should not be installed with a
ventilation system that directs air in a downward
direction toward the appliance. This type of
ventilation system may cause ignition and combustion
problems with the appliance resulting in personal
injury, property damage, or unintended operation.
Ventilating systems that direct the air upwards do not
have any restriction.
An air curtain or other overhead range hood, which
operates by blowing a downward airflow onto a
range, shall not be used in conjunction with a gas
range unless the hood and range have been designed
and tested in accordance with the Standard for
Domestic Gas Ranges, ANSI Z21.1 • CSA 1.1, and
listed by an independent testing laboratory for
combination use.
IMPORTANT: There is a possibility to discolor the back
wall under certain cooking conditions.
DO NOT clean, rub, damage, move or remove the door
gasket. It is essential for a good seal during baking. If the
gasket becomes worn or excessively soiled with food
particles, replace gasket to assure a tight seal.
Protect the self-cleaning feature. Clean only those parts
indicated in this booklet. DO NOT use commercial oven
cleaners or oven liner protective coatings of any kind in or
around the self-cleaning oven.
Place oven racks in desired position while oven is cool. If a
rack must be moved while the oven is hot, do not let the
potholders contact the broiler element.
DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR
SURFACES OF OVEN – Heating elements may be hot
even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an
oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and
after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable
materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of
oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other
surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to
cause burns - among these surfaces are oven vent
openings and surfaces near these openings, oven doors,
and windows of oven doors.
WARNING
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven
bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as
aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the
oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning.
Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire
hazard.
Use care when opening the oven door; let hot air or steam
escape before removing or replacing foods.
Please note that some pets or humans can be sensitive to
the odors created during the self-cleaning process
whether it is a manufacturing residue burn off or food. It is
recommended that those potentially affected be removed
from the kitchen area during the self-clean process.

Oven operation
Positioning the oven racks
9 WARNING
To help prevent burns, never remove or reposition the
oven racks while the oven is ON or while the oven is
cooling.
The correct rack position depends on the recipe and
the cooking mode.
The rack positions are numbered from the bottom of
the oven, like an elevator.
Rack position 3 is the most frequently used position.
Place rack(s) in the proper position before turning on
the oven.
Initial start-up
Before baking or broiling, the oven and broiler should be
turned on to burn off the manufacturing oils using one of
the two following methods:
1. Turn on kitchen ventilation (or if vent hood is a
recirculation type open a window).
2. Turn the oven on to 450ºF (230ºC) for 20 to 30
minutes; then turn the broiler to broil for the same
length of time.
or
1. Turn on kitchen ventilation (or if vent hood is a
recirculation type open a window).
2. Remove oven racks.
3. Set oven to self-clean (select models).
The range occasionally has an odor or smoke when first
used. These odors or smoke comes from the burning off of
manufacturing residues and is typical of any new oven
regardless of manufacturer.
IMPORTANT: ALWAYS remove the oven racks before self-
cleaning the oven. If the gliding racks remain in the oven
during self-clean, lubricants in the glide mechanisms of
each rack will be lost and the finish will discolor.
Automatic operation of the cooling fan
The cooling fan runs during all cooking modes. The fan
can be heard when it is running, and warm air may be felt
as it is released from the oven vent. The fan may also run
after the oven is off.
Oven vent
The oven vent is located at the back of the unit. Warm air
may be released from the vent before, during and after
cooking. It is normal to see steam escaping from the vent,
and condensation may collect in this area. This area may
be warm when the oven is in use. Do not block the vent,
since it is important for air circulation.
Convection fan
The convection fan operates during all convection modes.
When the oven is operating in a convection mode, the fan
turns off automatically when the door is opened. The
convection fan may also run during self-clean.

Using the rangetop
Sealed STAR
®
burners
9 WARNING
To prevent flare-ups and avoid the creation of harmful
by-products, do not use the cooktop without all
burner caps and all burner grates properly positioned.
9 WARNING
To prevent burns, do not touch burner caps or grates
while hot. Turn the cooktop off and allow the burners
to cool.
The burner caps must be properly placed on the burner
bases for the cooktop to function properly. If the burner
cap is not properly placed, one or more of the following
problems may occur:
Burner flames are too high.
Flames shoot out of burners.
Burners do not ignite.
Burner flames light unevenly.
Burner emits gas odor.
Burner cap placement
Each cap has a letter (B, D, or F) cast in the underside of
the cap that corresponds to a letter (B, D, or F) cast in the
burner base that is attached to the appliance.
To place the burner caps
1. Place each burner cap on its correct burner base per
its corresponding letter designation.
2. Place burner cap gently on top of base so that the
prongs of the burner base fit snugly into the groove of
the burner cap.
Checking the burner cap placement
Check each burner to make sure there is no gap
between the burner cap and burner base.
You may gently try to move the burner caps from side
to side to check if the caps are properly placed on the
burner bases.
When properly placed, each burner cap will rest flat
on top of its burner base, and completely cover the
star-shape of the burner base when viewed from the
top as shown below.
Burner grate placement
To install the burner grates
1. Place grates flat-side down and align into the
rangetop recess.
2. Grates should rest flush against each other and
against the sides of the recess.

Control knobs
The control knobs for two sealed gas burners, one in front
and one in the rear, are located directly in front of and
below the pair of burners on the control panel.
Operation of the burners
To turn on the burners
1. Press in on the knob and turn it counter-clockwise HI.
The igniter for the selected burner clicks and
sparks.
After burner ignition, the igniter stops clicking.
2. Rotate the knob to any flame setting between HI and
LO.
LED panel light (select models)
Positioned below the bullnose, the LED panel light
provides task lighting with a theatrical ambiance.
The panel light toggle switch on the control panel turns
the light ON and OFF.
ExtraLow
®
burners
The drawing shows that the control knob has an additional
range after the XLO setting. When the knob is set within
this range, the flame cycles off and on.
By varying the length of time the flame is off and on, the
heat is reduced even further to cook delicate foods. For
example, these very low settings are suitable for
simmering and poaching, melting chocolate and butter,
holding cooked foods at temperatures without scorching
or burning, etc.
Operation of the ExtraLow
®
burners
XLO, the very lowest setting, is achieved by cycling
the flame on for approximately 10 seconds and off for
50 seconds of each minute.
When the knob is set just below the XLO setting, the
flame will cycle on for approximately 50 seconds and
off for 10 seconds of each minute.
To vary the amount of low heat to suit the food and
quantity, the control can be set anywhere within the
XLO range marked on the knob.
ExtraLow
®
techniques
To maintain a low or simmer heat, bring food to a
rolling boil. Stir well, then cover the pan and lower the
heat to a setting just below XLO.
If a large pan is used, the simmer action may occur
mainly in the center of the pan. To equalize the
temperature throughout the food, stir the food
around the outer edges of the pan into the food in the
center.
It is normal to stir food occasionally while simmering.
This is especially important when simmering for
several hours, such as for a homemade spaghetti
sauce or beans.
If the setting is too low to hold a simmer, bring the
food back to a boil before re-setting to a higher heat.
There may be bubbling when the flame cycles on and
no bubbles when the flame is off. Even when the flame
is off, there will be steam and a slight quiver on the
liquid’s surface.
POWERBOOST
®
(select
models)
The controls for the
ExtraLow burners have flame
settings even lower than the
standard low settings.
The POWERBOOST, or XHI, offers
the convenience to quickly boil
water, sear steaks, stir-fry
vegetables, etc. Use of the SIM
and XLO remains the same as the
other XLO knobs.
background
Page. 21
Automatic re-ignition
Each burner has its own electronic igniter that sparks
when the burner is turned on. Each burner should light in
4 seconds or less. If a burner does not light, check to see
that the cap is positioned correctly on the base.
If any one or more burners blow out, the electronic igniter
automatically activates to re-light the flame. Do not touch
the burners when the igniters are active.
9 CAUTION
DO NOT touch the burners when the igniters are
sparking.
IMPORTANT
For proper combustion do not use the rangetop
without the burner grates in place.
There is a slight sound associated with gas
combustion and ignition. This is a normal condition.
On rangetops using propane gas (LP), a slight “pop”
sound may be heard at the burner ports a few seconds
after the burner has been turned off.
Power failure
9 WARNING
In the event of a power failure, turn all knobs to the
OFF position. Only the standard burners can be lit
manually.
In the event of a power failure, only the standard
burners can be manually lit. It is necessary to light
each one individually.
If the rangetop is being used when the power failure
occurs, turn all knobs to the OFF position.
The standard burners can be lit by holding a match at
the ports and turning the control knob to the HI
position. Wait until the flame is burning all around the
burner cap before adjusting the flame to the desired
height.
The burners with the ExtraLow
®
feature cannot be
used during a power failure. Be sure to turn them off.
If a burner with ExtraLow is on when a power failure
occurs, it cannot be turned back on until the knob is
first turned off.
If you smell gas, refer to safety precautions listed in
the Safety chapter.
Flame height
The correct flame height depends on 1) size and
material of pan being used; 2) food being cooked; and
3) amount of liquid in the pan.
Never extend the flame beyond the base of the pan.
Use a low or medium flame for pan materials that
conduct the heat slowly, such as porcelain coated
steel or glass-ceramic.
Flame description
If the flame is completely or mostly yellow, verify that
the regulator is set for the correct fuel. After
adjustment, retest.
Some orange-colored streaking is normal during the
initial start-up.
Allow unit to operate 4-5 minutes and re-evaluate
before making adjustments.
The burner flame color should be blue with no yellow
on the tips. It is not uncommon to see orange in the
flame color; this indicates the burning of airborne
impurities in the gas and will disappear with use.
With propane (LP) gas, slight yellow tips on the
primary cone are normal.
The flame should burn completely around the burner
cap. If it doesn’t, check that the cap is positioned
correctly on the base and that the ports are not
blocked.
The flame should be stable with no excessive noise or
fluttering.

Cookware recommendations
9 WARNING
To avoid risk of serious injury, damage to appliance or
cookware, please observe the following:
Bakeware, such as large casserole pans, cookie sheets,
etc. should never be used on the rangetop.
Placement of large stock pots should be staggered
when used on the rangetop.
Select the base diameter to match the diameter of the
flame. The diameter of the flame should be the same
size as the pan base or slightly smaller. Oversize or
under size pans sacrifice cooking performance. A 5½''
(140 mm) base size is generally the smallest
recommended.
Avoid using high flame setting with a pan larger than
the grate or with one that spans more than one
burner, such as a griddle, for prolonged periods of
time. This can result in poor combustion that
generates harmful by-products.
Balance is important for stability and even cooking.
The handle must not be heavier than the pan and tilt it
unevenly. A pan must sit level on the grate without
rocking or wobbling.
Food packaged in aluminum foil should not be placed
directly on the burner grate. Aluminum foil can melt
during cooking.
DO NOT let plastic, paper, or cloth come in contact
with a hot burner grate. They may melt or catch fire.
Professional quality pans with metal handles are
recommended because plastic handles can melt or
blister if the flame extends up the side of the pan.
All cookware should have these characteristics: good
heat conductivity, good balance, correctly sized base
diameter, a heavy, flat base, and a proper fitting lid.
For best cooking results, the flame should be
contained under the bottom of the pan.
Aluminum and copper are pan materials that conduct
the heat quickly and evenly. These metals are
sometimes attached to the base or in the core
between stainless steel.
A heavy, flat base is more apt to remain flat when
heated. Pan bases that are warped, dented, ridged or
too lightweight will heat unevenly. Heat and cool pans
gradually to avoid sudden temperature changes which
tend to distort cookware. DO NOT add cold water to
a hot pan.
A properly fitting lid will shorten cooking time and
make it possible to use lower heat settings.

Specialty cookware
Woks
Either flat-based or round-bottom woks with the
accessory ring can be used on all models. Round
bottom woks must be used with a support ring.
The wok pan and the porcelain-coated cast iron wok
support ring must be purchased separately.
Canners and stock pots
Select one with a base diameter that extends no more
than 2'' (51 mm) beyond the grate.
Standard size water bath canner
21 to 22 quarts (19.95 to 20.9 liters), with an 11'' to
12'' base (279 – 305 mm) and a 9'' to 11'' depth
(229 – 279 mm).
Standard size pressure canner
8 to 22 quarts (7.6 to 20.9 liters), with an 8'' to 11''
base (203 – 279 mm) and a 6½'' to 12'' depth
(165 – 305 mm).
Canning tips
A flat base pan is preferred to one with a concave,
convex or rippled base.
When using two canners at the same time, use
staggered burners. DO NOT block air to the burners.
A flame needs the right amount of air for complete
combustion.
Use a cover on the canner when bringing the contents
to a boil.
Once the contents have reached a boil on HI, use the
lowest flame possible to maintain the boil or pressure.
Canning produces a large amount of steam. Take
precautions to prevent burns.
Suggestions for using the surface burner
cooking recommendations
Use the chart beginning on page 24 as a guide. The
settings you use will vary depending on the pans
selected and the starting temperature of the food.
On the chart, the “Finish setting” has been separated
for the standard and ExtraLow
®
burners. There may or
may not be a change between the two burner
settings.
The ExtraLow setting can be either a cooking or a
holding setting.
Raise or lower the flame setting gradually. Allow time
for the pan and the food to adjust to the new setting.

Electric griddle
NOTE: Not available on all models.
Description
Griddle widths vary.
A maple chopping block and stainless steel cover are
available as accessories and are purchased separately. The
maple chopping block and stainless steel cover must be
removed before turning the griddle on.
9 CAUTION
The griddle element is hot after use. Allow sufficient
time for griddle components to cool before cleaning.
9 WARNING
To avoid risk of injury, never operate the griddle
without the griddle plate installed. Never use the
griddle in a manner that is not prescribed by the Use
and Care Guide.
The griddle plate must always be in place when the
griddle is turned on.
The griddle is electronically controlled with temperatures
marked on the knob from 150° – 500°F (66° – 260°C).
There are no fixed settings on the knob.
The 24'' griddle models have two heating elements that
can be regulated separately; one element for the left side
of the griddle and another for the right side. This allows
you to cook food with different temperature requirements
at the same time.
Preparing the griddle
To prepare the griddle
1. The griddle plate should be washed with warm soapy
water then rinsed with clear water prior to use.
2. Check the griddle plate adjustment by pouring two
tablespoons of water on the back of the griddle plate.
-- The water should slowly roll into the grease tray.
3. If water does not flow to the front of the griddle,
move the griddle plate to the side.
4. Adjust the two screws under the back of the plate.
Start with one half turn counterclockwise of the screws
(below).
5. Further adjustment should be made by one-quarter
turn until water slowly flows into the grease tray.
The griddle may be used without any butter, margarine or
oil. However, a very small amount may be used to flavor
foods.
DO NOT use metal utensils on the griddle surface. Care
should be taken that the surface is not gouged when
utensils are used. DO NOT cut directly on the griddle
plate.
NOTICE: Performance may vary if there is an excessive
amount of airflow in the vicinity of the appliance. The
excessive airflow could be from an air-conditioning
register or ceiling fan blowing at the rangetop. This could
create longer than normal heat-up time, or it could cause
the temperature to be higher or lower than the knob
setting.
NOTE: Having a properly installed ventilation hood is not
considered a source of excessive airflow.
Cooking on the griddle
To cook on the griddle
1. Press and turn the knob clockwise to the appropriate
cooking temperature to preheat the griddle.
2. Preheat the griddle.
3. Add butter, margarine, oil or shortening if desired.
Use the lowest cooking temperature possible. Recipes
may need to be modified as the non-stick coating browns
and sears at lower temperatures.

Seasoning the griddle plate
If the griddle plate seems to lose its non-stick abilities over
time, the following instructions should help regain the
griddle’s non-stick properties. For optimal performance
and long life of your griddle plate, follow these simple
cleaning and seasoning instructions.
NOTE: 24'' griddles will not fit in the oven cavity for
seasoning. Therefore, care should be taken not to
overheat and damage their non-stick coatings while
preheating and cooking.
To prepare the griddle for seasoning
The griddle plate must be clean and all residue removed
before the griddle plate is seasoned.
1. Use a mixture of coarse salt and a small amount of
white vinegar to buff off any residue from the griddle
plate.
2. Rinse well with clean water.
3. Dry the griddle plate thoroughly.
To season the griddle
Seasoning is a process by which a layer of animal fat or
vegetable oil is applied and baked into the cookware. The
seasoning layer provides a non-stick surface for cooking.
1. Use a paper towel to apply a thin, even coating of
lard, Crisco
®
, or olive oil to the griddle surface.
2. Bake the griddle plate in a 350°F oven for 1 hour.
3. Remove the griddle plate from the oven and allow to
cool to room temperature.
4. Apply a second layer of fat or oil and bake at 350°F for
1 hour.
5. Repeat process at least one additional time – making
3 coats of oil or fat.
After seasoning
1. After cooking on your seasoned griddle, allow to cool
and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Allow to dry.
2. Add a thin coating of oil or fat before storing your
griddle in a cool, dry place.
3. Repeating this process will season the griddle and
maintain non-stick properties. Performance will
improve over time with more seasoning.
4. To strip the griddle to re-season, a mixture of salt and
vinegar should be used to remove any oil layers from
the previous seasoning process.

Electric grill
Description
NOTE: Not available on all models.
9 WARNING
To avoid risk of injury, NEVER operate grill without
the grates or griddle plate accessory installed.
NEVER leave grill unattended while cooking.
Observe caution with oils and fats. Overheated
oils and fats can easily cause fires.
DO NOT use wood chips, lava rocks, or charcoal
briquettes. Only use recommended ceramic
briquettes (PABRICKBKN).
DO NOT use dishes, pans, pots, or other
cookware on the grill.
NEVER use aluminum foil to cover the grates or to
line the grill. It can damage the grill and cause a
fire hazard if heat is trapped under it.
Check drip tray before each use. Too much grease
in the tray may cause a fire hazard.
If flames appear, grease should be cleaned from
grates, drip tray, briquette basket and other
surfaces.
Grease build up encourages flame and smoke
development while cooking.
Ceramic briquettes must be replaced when they
begin to turn black. This means that they are
saturated with fat and may smoke heavily during
operation or the fat may catch fire.
The built-in grill is made of restaurant-quality cast iron
grates. This produces a surface with even heat that is easy
to clean.
A non-stick cast iron griddle plate is available as an
accessory and may be purchased separately. See the
instructions that come with the griddle plate accessory for
more details.
Assembling the grill
To assemble the grill
1. Rotate heating elements (5) up and remove the
briquette basket (3) stored inside the grill housing (1).
2. Place the drip tray (2) in the bottom of the grill
housing (1). (Drip tray is packaged in the large
cardboard box that was on top of the range.) Align
the embosses of the drip tray (2) with the depressions
on the bottom of the grill housing (1).
3. Place the briquette basket (3) in the grill housing (1).
4. Arrange the ceramic briquettes (4) on the briquette
basket (3), in a single layer. The ceramic briquettes
should not contact the heating elements.
5. Fold both grill heating elements (5) down. The grill
heating elements must lie flat. Supports should rest
inside of side notches.
6. Install the grill grates (6). Ensure grates are seated
level inside the grill housing (1).

Operating the grill
IMPORTANT:
If flames appear while grilling, turn off heat and
remove the food. Use caution to avoid any
potential injury while removing food.
Often, such flames will extinguish themselves
within a few minutes once grease drippings have
burned up. DO NOT leave the grill unattended
until all flames are extinguished. If desired, flames
can be extinguished by generously shaking baking
soda or salt over them to smother the fire.
If flames appear, ceramic briquettes should be
replaced and grease should be cleaned from
grates, grease tray, briquette basket, and other
surfaces before using the grill again. Built up
grease which is allowed to remain encourages
flame and smoke development while cooking.
Moist food should be dried, before placing on
grill.
Marinated food may cause more smoke to be
produced!
During grilling, dripping fat may flare up briefly.
9 WARNING
TO AVOID RISK OF BURNS:
Use proper utensils with long handles that allow
the chef plenty of clearance from the heat and
potential flare ups.
DO NOT wear loose clothing while cooking.
Never leave grill unattended while cooking.
After each use, remove grease buildup from the
grill surfaces and the trays below the grill to avoid
risk of fire. Ventilation hoods should also be
cleaned periodically as needed and as
recommended by the Use and Care Guide as well
as surrounding surfaces.
Keep a fire extinguisher nearby and accessible.
Operation
To operate the grill
1. Start overhead ventilation system 10 minutes prior to
grilling to begin air movement.
2. The grill grates should be washed with warm soapy
water then rinsed with clear water prior to use.
3. Before turning on, make sure that there are ceramic
briquettes in the appliance and both grill grates are
correctly fitted. Turn on ventilation hood.
4. Press and turn the knob to the desired temperature
setting.
The two grill heating elements can be regulated
separately. This allows you to grill food with
different temperature requirements at the same
time, or you can use one area to grill and the
other to keep warm.
5. During the initial use, heat the grill for about 10
minutes to eliminate manufacturing residues and
smells.
6. For best results, allow the grill grates to preheat
before placing food on them.
9 CAUTION
Clean the grill after each use. Allow the appliance to
cool before cleaning.
Grilling tips
The grill should be preheated a minimum of 10
minutes before cooking. Depending on browning
preference and the types of food being prepared, as
much as 15 minutes of preheat time may be required.
Soak wooden skewers in water a minimum 20 minutes
before placing on the grill.
Prior to grilling, you can coat the food with heat-
resistant oil (e.g. peanut oil) or marinate it. Make sure
not to use too much oil/marinade, as otherwise it may
catch fire and generate thick smoke.
Lay the food directly on the grill grates. DO NOT use
aluminum foil or grill trays.
Cured meat, such as ham or smoked pork chops, is
not suitable for grilling. Unhealthy chemical
compounds may form.
To prevent flare-ups, remove excess fat from foods
prior to grilling.
DO NOT use cleaners on the heating elements. Allow
grease to burn off the heating elements.
To soak up fat on the grill plate, sprinkle coarse salt
onto the grilling surface after use.

by the cook, has been reached. The probe expresses the
current temperature of the meat as it cooks.
The following are the heating modes that work with the
temperature probe:
•Bake
Convection bake
•Roast
•Convection roast
The temperature probe will not work with the oven timer
or with the end timer.
For best results
To avoid damaging the probe, ensure that the meat is
fully defrosted before inserting the probe.
Insert the probe until its tip is rested in the center of
the thickest, meatiest portion of the meat. Ensure that
the probe does not touch bone, fat, or gristle.
For poultry, the meat probe should be inserted into
the interior thigh muscle.
The probe should not touch any part of the cooking
dish or parts of the oven, as this will affect the
accuracy of the results.

Getting the most out of your appliance
Oven rack positions
Rack level positions in the oven are numbered on the front
frame like an elevator. Number one level is the lowest and
number five level is at the top.
NOTE: Rack positions are general recommendations for
baking; however, if a recipe calls for a different rack
position than those given, then the recipe or package
directions should be followed.
Bake
Bake is cooking with dry, heated air. Both the upper and
lower elements cycle to maintain the oven temperature.
The bake mode can be used to prepare a variety of food
items, from pastries to casseroles. Refer to recipe or
package directions for oven temperature and baking time.
Main oven one rack baking
Main oven two rack baking
Secondary oven (48" models)
Main oven three rack baking
If three-rack baking is desired, the Convection Bake mode
is best.
Getting the best results
Minimize opening the oven door(s).
Use the rack position recommended by the recipe.
Use the bakeware recommended in the recipe.
Store the broiler pan(s) outside the oven. An extra pan
without food affects the browning and cooking.
The type of pan used affects the browning:
For tender, golden brown crusts, use light
non-stick/anodized or shiny metal pans.
For brown crisp crusts, use dark non-stick/
anodized or dark, dull metal pans or glass
bakeware. These may require lowering the bake
temperature 25°F.
Preheating the oven
Most cooking times in recipes are designed for a
preheated oven and require that the oven already be
at a certain temperature before cooking starts. Refer
to your recipe for preheating recommendations
.
Preheating time depends on the temperature setting
and the number of racks in the oven.
Bakeware type
Metal bakeware (with or without a non-stick finish),
heat-proof glass, glass-ceramic, pottery, or other
utensils are suitable for the oven.
Suitable cookie sheets have a small lip on one side.
Heavy sheets or those with more than one side may
affect the baking time.
Level Bake mode
3 -- Best used for most baked items.
2 -- If the item is tall, such as an angel food cake.
-- Pies are best baked on rack level 2 to make
certain the bottom of the crust is done
without over-browning the top.
-- When large pieces of meat or poultry are
roasted, such as a prime rib of beef or a
turkey.
Levels Bake or conv bake mode
2 and 5 dual fuel
2 and 4 gas
-- Casserole dishes
Level Bake mode
1 -- Best used for most baked items.
background
Page. 39
Pan placement
Allow at least 1'' (25.4 mm) of space between the pans
and the oven walls so heat can circulate around each
pan.
Stagger bakeware so that one is not directly above
another. Allow 1½'' (38 mm) above and below each
pan.
High altitude baking
When cooking at high altitudes, recipes and cooking times
will vary. For accurate information, write the Extension
Service, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado
80521. There may be a cost for the guides. Specify which
high altitude food preparation guide you prefer: general
information, cakes, cookies breads, etc.
Condensation
It is normal for a certain amount of moisture to evaporate
from the food during any cooking process. The amount
depends on the moisture content of the food. The
moisture will condense on any surface cooler than the
inside of the oven, such as the control panel.
Broil
Before turning on the oven, place the rack in the desired
position. After preheating the broiler, center the broil pan
under the broil element.
Only the upper element heats in the Broil mode.
Successful broiling requires constant exposure to high,
intense heat.
Dual fuel main oven broil rack recommendations
Gas main oven broil rack recommendations
Secondary oven broil rack recommendations (48"
models only)
Getting the best broil results
Tips:
Defrost food before broiling.
Door is to be closed during broiling.
It is recommended that you preheat the broil element
before starting to cook. Preheat for 3 minutes then
place food in oven.
Steaks should be more than 1'' (25.4 mm) thick if rare
meat is desired. Use convection broil if steaks are over
1½'' (38 mm) thick.
Turn foods over only once, after half the total cooking
time. It is not necessary to turn very thin foods (ham
slices, fillets of fish, etc.). Liver slices must be turned
over regardless of thickness.
Center foods directly under the broiling element for
best browning.
Level Dual fuel broil mode
5 -- Beef steaks, ground meat patties, ham steak
and lamb chops 1'' (25.4 mm) or less in
thickness. Also use when top browning foods.
4 -- Meat 1-1/8'' (29 mm) or more in thickness or
fish, poultry, pork chops and ham steaks 1''
(25.4 mm) or more in thickness.
3 -- Chicken quarters or halves.
Level Gas broil mode
4 -- Beef steaks, ground meat patties, ham steak
and lamb chops 1'' (25.4 mm) or less in
thickness.
3 -- Meat 1-1/8'' (29 mm) or more in thickness or
fish, poultry, pork chops and ham steaks 1''
(25.4 mm) or more in thickness. Use this rack
when broiling chicken quarters or halves. Also
use when top browning foods.
Levels Secondary broil mode
3, 4, or 5 – dual fuel
1, 3, or 4 – gas
-- Depending upon the type
and thickness of the food.
5 – Dual fuel
3 – Gas
-- Top browning of foods.

Utensils
Your appliance comes with a large two-piece broiler
pan. The slotted grid allows drippings to flow into the
lower pan, away from the intense heat of the broil
element, minimizing spattering, smoking, and the
chance of a grease fire. DO NOT cover the slotted
grid (top) with aluminum foil.
Use metal or glass-ceramic bakeware when top
browning casseroles, main dishes, or bread.
DO NOT use heat-proof glass or pottery. This type of
glassware cannot withstand the intense heat of the
broil element.
NOTE: It is not possible to use the bake mode and broil
mode simultaneously. When one mode is on, the other
mode cannot be turned on.
Convection broil
Convection broil is similar to broil. It combines intense
heat from the upper element with heat circulated by a
convection fan.
Convection broil mode is well suited for cooking thick,
tender cuts of meat, poultry and fish. Convection broil is
not recommended for browning breads, casseroles and
other foods. Always use convection broil with the door
closed.
In addition to the benefits of standard broiling, convection
broiling is faster.
Tips:
Preheat oven 3-4 minutes. Do not preheat for more
than 5 minutes.
Meat should be at least 1½'' thick. Use the broil pan
and grid included with your oven.
Do not cover the broil grid with foil. It is designed to
drain fats and oils away from the cooking surface to
prevent smoking and spattering.
Turn meats (other than fish) once during the
recommended cook time.
Convection bake
Convection bake is similar to bake. Heat comes from the
lower heating element. The main difference in convection
baking is that the heat is circulated throughout the
appliance by the convection fan.
Tips:
To convert most recipes for baked items (cookies,
cakes, pies, etc.); reduce the oven temperature by
25°F.
For meats and poultry, the temperature should not be
reduced. The same temperature recommended in
recipes and cooking charts for meats and poultry
should be used.
Low, shallow bakeware should be used with
convection cooking. This allows the heated air to
circulate around the food.
When baking on more than one rack, cookie sheets
should not be staggered; round cake pans should be
staggered.
Any food cooked uncovered will brown evenly and
form a nice crust. Foods in covered dishes (casseroles,
pot roast) or delicate custards do not benefit from
convection cooking.
For small items such as cookies, check to see if they
are done one to two minutes before the recipe time.
For larger baked items such as cakes, check five to six
minutes before the time indicated on the recipe.
Large meat or poultry items may cook up to 30
minutes less than the suggested time so check them
so they will not be over baked.

Dehydrating foods with convection bake
Use the convection bake to dry and preserve fruits and
vegetables.
Tips:
Drying times vary depending on the moisture and
sugar content of the food, the size of the pieces, the
amount being dried and the humidity in the air.
Dry most fruits and vegetables at 150°F (66°C).
Check food at the minimum drying time.
It is best to use drying racks (not included) so that air
can flow around the food. Do not place food directly
on a baking sheet or pan. Food needs to be elevated
to ensure even drying.
Multiple drying racks can be used simultaneously.
Racks 2 and 4 or 1, 3 and 5 can be used for multiple
rack dehydrating. Use rack 3 if only dehydrating one
rack.
Dehydrating meat is not recommended due to food
safety concerns.
Consult a food preservation book, county Cooperative
Extension Office or library for additional information.

True convection
About true convection
True convection cooks with heat from a third element
behind the back wall of the oven. The heat is circulated
throughout the oven by the convection fan.
True convection is well suited for cooking individual
serving-sized foods such as cookies and pastries. It is also
good for cooking on multiple racks (2 or 3) at the same
time.
Tips:
Reduce recipe temperature by 25°F.
Place food in low-sided, uncovered pans such as
cookie sheets without sides.
If baking more than one pan on a rack, allow at least
1'' to 1½'' of air space around the pan.
Proof
About proof
The proof feature maintains the warm, non-drafty
environment needed for proofing yeast leavened
products.
It is best to start with a cool oven when using the proofing
function.
To set the oven for proof
1. Allow dough to thaw if frozen.
2. Place dough in dish and loosely cover.
3. Use any rack level that accommodates the size of the
bowl or pan. Close the door.
4. Turn the mode knob to PROOF. DO NOT turn the
oven temperature knob.
The ideal temperature for proofing will be maintained
until the mode knob is turned off.
Dough has “proofed” when it has doubled in size.
Do not open the oven door unnecessarily. Opening the
door will lower the temperature of the air in the oven and
lengthen the proofing time. Use the oven light to check
the rising of the dough.
Proofing time may be decreased when using the large
oven at the same time you are proofing. Check bread
product early to avoid over-proofing. If you are using the
large oven for extended periods of time we recommend,
for optimum results, that you complete the proofing
before using the large oven.
Roast
About roast
Roast uses both the upper and lower elements to maintain
the oven temperature. Roasting uses more intense heat
from the upper element than the lower element. This
results in more browning of the exterior while the inside
remains especially moist. Roast is best suited for large cuts
of meat and poultry.
Tips:
Use a high-sided broil pan, or cover dish with a lid or
foil.
Add liquids, such as water, juice, wine, bouillon or
stock for flavor and moisture.
Roasting bags are suitable for use in this mode.
When roasting whole chicken or turkey, tuck wings
behind back and loosely tie legs with kitchen string.
Roasting recommendations

As much as 25% faster cooking than non-convection
modes.
Rich, golden browning.
Tips:
Use the same temperature as indicated in the recipe.
Check doneness early, since roasting time may
decrease.
Do not cover meat or use cooking bags.
Use the broil pan and grid provided with the oven for
roasting. A shallow, uncovered pan can also be used.
Use a meat thermometer to determine the internal
temperature of the meat.
If the meat is browned to your liking, but is not yet
done, a small strip of foil can be placed over the meat
to prevent over-browning.
Let meat stand covered with foil 10-15 minutes after
removing it from the oven.
Warm
About warm
The Warm mode will keep hot, cooked foods at
serving temperature. ALWAYS start with hot food. DO
NOT use this mode to heat cold food other than for
crisping crackers, chips and dry cereal.
Serving dishes, plates and cups may be kept warm
with this mode.
Warm mode temperatures range from 140°–150°F /
60°–66°C. Food should be at serving temperature
(above 140°F / 60°C) before being placed in the oven.
Food may be kept hot in its cooking container or
transferred to a heat-safe serving dish.
Aluminum foil may be used to cover food. Use only
heat-safe dishes.
DO NOT open the oven door unnecessarily. Opening
the door will reduce the temperature of the oven.
When keeping cooked food warm, allow time for the
oven to preheat before placing the item in the oven.
To set the warm mode
1. Turn the mode knob to WARM. DO NOT turn the
oven temperature knob.
2. Place warmed dish in the oven and close the door.
Minimum internal cooking temperatures
The minimum internal temperatures that foods must reach
to be considered safe to eat, as determined by the U. S
Department of Agriculture Food Safety and Inspection
Service, are as follows:
Fine tuning the oven
About offset
The offset feature allows the cook to further fine-tune
their cooking parameters to their own personal optimal
settings by allowing them to adjust the temperature offset
of the oven by +/-25°F in increments of 5°F.
For example, if the cook judges the oven temperature as
too hot and wants to lower it by 5°F, press the “
( ” button.
To increase the temperature by 5°F, press the “
) ”. This
feature is useful if you find that food is consistently either
too brown or too light for your tastes.
The oven must be turned off in order to set an offset
value.
The offset feature is available for all modes except
self-clean.
By default, the temperature is set at 0°.
The unit will continue to run the input offset value
indefinitely until the user manually changes it, or until
the unit loses power, in which case offset will need to
be reset.

Care and maintenance
9 WARNING
Children should not be left alone or unattended in
an area where appliances are in use.
During the self-clean cycle, exterior surfaces may
become hotter than usual. Parts of the appliance
may become potentially harmful to children, and
to persons who lack adult knowledge of
appliances and lack adult reactions to potentially
harmful conditions. Keep these individuals away
during self-clean and while the appliance is in use.
The elimination of soil during self-cleaning may
facilitate the emission of small amounts of
chemicals or other substances that may be
harmful upon sufficient exposure. To minimize
exposure to these substances, provide good
ventilation with an open window, or use a
ventilation fan or hood.
For the self-cleaning cycle of your range, remove
small animals and birds from the kitchen and
surrounding areas. Open a nearby window for
additional ventilation. During self-clean, fumes are
released that may be harmful.
Brand names
The use of brand names is intended only to indicate a
type of cleaner. This does not constitute an
endorsement.
The omission of any brand name cleaner does not
imply its adequacy or inadequacy.
Many products are regional in distribution and can be
found in local markets.
It is imperative that all cleaning products be used in
strict accordance with the instructions on its package.
About self-clean
The self-cleaning mode of your new range features
pyrolytic self-cleaning. When set to the self clean
mode, the oven reaches a high temperature,
approximately 850°F (454°C), that burns off the food
soil.
When the oven is set for self clean, the standard
rangetop burners and the electric griddle and grill
may be used. The burners having the ExtraLow
®
feature cannot be used.
It is common to see smoke and/or flames during the
clean cycle, depending on the content and amount of
soil remaining in the oven. If a flame persists, turn off
the oven and allow it to cool before opening the door
to wipe up the excessive food soil.
At the end of the clean cycle, some gray ash or
burned residue may remain inside the oven. This is a
mineral deposit that does not burn or melt. The
amount of ash depends on how heavily soiled the
oven was before it was cleaned. When the oven is
cold, it is easily removed using a damp paper towel,
sponge, or cloth.
Before self-cleaning the oven
DO NOT USE OVEN CLEANERS – No commercial oven
cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should
be used in or around any part of the oven.
To reduce flare ups and excess smoke wipe out puddles of
grease and any loose soil that can be easily removed.
Remove any soil that is outside the door seal area. This
appliance is designed to clean the oven interior and the
portion of the door that is inside the oven. The outer
edges of the door and the frame surrounding the front of
the oven are not in the cleaning zone. Wipe this area
clean.

during the next use.
The heating elements in the oven do not require
cleaning. The elements burn themselves clean when
the oven is in use.
When cleaning this appliance
Use the mildest cleaning procedure that will do the
job efficiently and effectively. Some cleaners of the
same type are harsher than others. Try on a small
inconspicuous area first.
Always rub metal finishes in the direction of the polish
lines for maximum effectiveness and to avoid marring
the surface.
Use only clean soft cloths, sponges, paper towels,
fibrous brushes, plastic, non-metal or steel wool soap
pads for cleaning and scouring, as recommended on
the chart.
Most exterior parts of this appliance can be cleaned
with hot sudsy water (except the various items
specifically identified otherwise). When rinsing is

All Purpose Brass Polish
Grates / porcelain
enamel on cast iron
The grates are heavy; use care when lifting. Place on a protected surface. DO NOT clean
grates in a self-cleaning oven.
The rough texture of the grate can sometimes remove aluminum deposits from the
bottom of pans and fill in areas between the high spots on the surface of the grate. Use
special care when cooking with copper and aluminum pots and pans as this type of
cookware can sometimes leave metal deposits on the grates.
Blisters/ crazing/ chips are common due to the extreme temperatures on grate fingers
and rapid temperature changes.
Acidic and sugar-laden spills deteriorate the enamel. Remove soil immediately once the
grate has cooled.
Abrasive cleaners, used too vigorously or too often can eventually mar the enamel.

Oven cavity / porcelain
enamel on steel
Porcelain enamel is acid resistant, but not acid proof. Acid foods such as citrus juices,
tomatoes, rhubarb, vinegar, alcohol or milk, should be wiped up and not allowed to bake
onto the porcelain during the next use. Over a period of time, the porcelain may craze
(get fine hairlike lines), this will not affect oven performance.
Apply cleaner to a damp sponge or cloth. Rub lightly. Rinse thoroughly and dry. If food
has burned onto the oven and is difficult to remove, the spots can be soaked with a cloth
saturated in a suggested cleaner. Close the door and allow it to soak until the food soil
can be easily removed with a damp soapy cloth or mild abrasive.
Suggested cleaners; rinse and dry immediately:
-- Hot water and detergent
-- Bar Keeper’s Friend
®
-- Vinegar and water
-- Soft Scrub
®
-- Bon-ami
®
Oven racks and rack
guides
Some commercial oven cleaners cause darkening and discoloration. Test the cleaner on a
small part of the rack and check for discoloration before cleaning the entire rack.
Oven racks will discolor if left in oven during self clean.
If the racks do not slide easily after being cleaned, dampen a paper towel with a small
amount of cooking oil and rub it lightly over the side rails.
Suggested cleaners; rinse and dry immediately:
-- Hot water and detergent
-- Vinegar and water

Surface spill trays /
porcelain enamel
The porcelain enamel finish is acid resistant, but not acid proof. Acidic foods, such as
citrus juices, tomatoes, rhubarb, vinegar, alcohol or milk, should be wiped up and not
allowed to bake onto the porcelain during the next use.
If mild abrasive cleaners are used, rub lightly as these cleansers may scratch the finish.
For burned on foods, soap filled fiber or steel wool pads may be used but care must be
taken as these may scratch the finish.

Do-it-yourself maintenance
Oven light bulb replacement
9 CAUTION
Make sure the appliance and lights are cool and
power to the appliance has been turned off
before replacing the light bulb(s). Failure to do so
could result in electrical shock or burns.
The covers must be in place when using the
appliance.
The covers serve to protect the light bulb from
breaking.
The covers are made of glass. Handle carefully to
avoid breaking. Broken glass could cause an
injury.
The light socket is live when the door is open.
Replace only with a recommended light bulb designed for
appliance oven use. DO NOT use a standard household
light bulb in any oven. Call Thermador Customer Care
Center at 1-800-735-4328 or your nearest Thermador
dealer to determine the proper replacement bulb for your
range. You will need to know your range’s model number
and serial number.
To replace the light bulb
Use only 10W, 12V G4 light bulbs. Use a clean, dry cloth to
handle halogen light bulbs. This will increase the life of the
bulb.
1. Turn off circuit breaker.
2. Remove the oven racks.
3. Slide the tip of a flat blade screw driver between the
holder clip and the lamp housing (figure, A).
4. Support the glass lens cover with fingers along the
bottom edge to prevent the cover from falling to the
bottom of the oven. Gently twist the flat blade screw
driver to loosen the glass lens cover.
5. Remove the glass lens cover.
6. Remove the bulb by grasping and sliding the bulb
straight back until the two prongs have cleared the
ceramic holder (figure, B).
7. DO NOT touch the glass of the new replacement bulb
with your fingers. It may cause the bulb to fail when it
first lights. Grasp the replacement bulb with a clean
dry cloth. Locate the two prongs in the ceramic
holder, gently poking until the two prongs locate in
the ceramic socket.
8. Press down to seat the bulb (figure, C).
9. Slide the protective lens into the holder clip and push
the other end until the fixing clip snaps back into the
housing (figure, D).
10. Turn on circuit breaker.

Statement of limited product warranty
What this warranty covers and who it
applies to
The limited warranty provided by BSH Home Appliances
("Thermador") in this Statement of Limited Product
Warranty applies only to the Thermador appliance sold to
you, the first using purchaser, provided that the Product
was purchased:
For your normal, household (non-commercial) use,
and has in fact at all times only been used for normal
household purposes.
New at retail (not a display, “as is”, or previously
returned model), and not for resale, or commercial
use.
Within the United States or Canada, and has at all
times remained within the country of original
purchase.
The warranties stated herein apply to the original
purchaser of the product warranted herein and to each
succeeding owner of the product purchased for ordinary
home use during the term of the warranty.
Please make sure to return your registration card; while
not necessary to effectuate warranty coverage, it is the
best way for Thermador to notify you in the unlikely event
of a safety notice or product recall.
How long the warranty lasts
Thermador warrants that the Product is free from defects
in materials and workmanship for a period of seven
hundred and thirty (730) days from the date of purchase.
The foregoing timeline begins to run upon the date of
purchase, and shall not be stalled, tolled, extended, or
suspended, for any reason whatsoever.
This Product is also warranted to be free from cosmetic
defects in material and workmanship (such as scratches of
stainless steel, paint/porcelain blemishes, chips, dents, or
other damage to the finish) of the Product, for a period of
sixty (60) days from the date of purchase or closing date
for new construction. This cosmetic
warranty excludes
slight color variations due to inherent differences in
painted and porcelain parts, as well as differences caused
by kitchen lighting, product location, or other similar
factors. This cosmetic
warranty specifically excludes any
display, floor, "As Is", or "B" stock appliances.
Repair/replace as your exclusive remedy
During this warranty period, Thermador or one of its
authorized service providers will repair your Product
without charge to you (subject to certain limitations stated
herein) if your Product proves to have been manufactured
with a defect in materials or workmanship. If reasonable
attempts to repair the Product have been made without
success, then Thermador will replace your Product
(upgraded models may be available to you, in
Thermador’s sole discretion, for an additional charge). All
removed parts and components shall become the
property of Thermador at its sole option. All replaced and/
or repaired parts shall assume the identity of the original
part for purposes of this warranty and this warranty shall
not be extended with respect to such parts.
Thermador's sole liability and responsibility hereunder is
to repair manufacturer-defective Product only, using a
Thermador authorized service provider during normal
business hours.
For safety and property damage concerns, Thermador
highly recommends that you do not attempt to repair the
Product yourself, or use an unauthorized servicer;
Thermador will have no responsibility or liability for repairs
or work performed by a non-authorized servicer. If you
choose to have someone other than an authorized service
provider work on your Product, THIS WARRANTY WILL
AUTOMATICALLY BECOME NULL AND VOID. Authorized
service providers are those persons or companies that
have been specially trained on Thermador products, and
who possess, in Thermador's opinion, a superior
reputation for customer service and technical ability (note
that they are independent entities and are not agents,
partners, affiliates or representatives of Thermador).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Thermador will not incur
any liability, or have responsibility, for the Product if it is
located in a remote area (more than 100 miles from an
authorized service provider) or is reasonably inaccessible,
hazardous, threatening, or treacherous locale,
surroundings, or environment; in any such event, if you
request, Thermador would still pay for labor and parts and
ship the parts to the nearest authorized service provider,
but you would still be fully liable and responsible for any
travel time or other special charges by the service
company, assuming they agree to make the service call.

defects or damage that are not the direct fault of
Thermador, including without limitation, one or more of
the following:
Use of the Product in anything other than its normal,
customary and intended manner (including without
limitation, any form of commercial use, use or storage

Any party's willful misconduct, negligence, misuse,
abuse, accidents, neglect, improper operation, failure

internal workings).
Adjustment, alteration or modification of any kind.
A failure to comply with any applicable state, local,
city, or county electrical, plumbing and/or building

the product in strict conformity with local fire and

Ordinary wear and tear, spills of food, liquid, grease
accumulations, or other substances that accumulate

and factors, including without limitation, rain, wind,

excessive moisture or extended exposure to humidity,
lightning, power surges, structural failures surrounding
the appliance, and acts of God.
In no event shall Thermador have any liability or
responsibility whatsoever for damage to surrounding
property, including cabinetry, floors, ceilings, and other
structures or objects around the Product. Also excluded
from this warranty are products on which the serial
numbers have been altered, defaced, or removed; service
visits to teach you how to use the Product, or visits where
there is nothing wrong with the Product; correction of
installation problems (you are solely responsible for any
structure and setting for the Product, including all
electrical, plumbing or other connecting facilities, for
proper foundation/flooring, and for any alterations
including without limitation cabinetry, walls, floors,

TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, THIS WARRANTY
SETS OUT YOUR EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES WITH RESPECT
TO PRODUCT, WHETHER THE CLAIM ARISES IN
CONTRACT OR TORT (INCLUDING STRICT LIABILITY, OR
NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE. THIS WARRANTY IS IN
LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS
OR IMPLIED. ANY WARRANTY IMPLIED BY LAW,
WHETHER FOR MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL BE
EFFECTIVE ONLY FOR THE PERIOD THAT THIS EXPRESS
LIMITED WARRANTY IS EFFECTIVE. IN NO EVENT WILL
THE MANUFACTURER BE LIABLE FOR
CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT,
“BUSINESS LOSS”, AND/OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES,
LOSSES, OR EXPENSES, INCLUDING WITHOUT
LIMITATION TIME AWAY FROM WORK, HOTELS AND/
OR RESTAURANT MEALS, REMODELLING EXPENSES IN
EXCESS OF DIRECT DAMAGES WHICH ARE
DEFINITIVELY CAUSED EXCLUSIVELY BY THERMADOR,
OR OTHERWISE. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE
EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, AND SOME STATES DO
NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED
WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY
NOT APPLY TO YOU. THIS WARRANTY GIVES YOU
SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, AND YOU MAY ALSO HAVE
OTHER RIGHTS WHICH VARY FROM STATE TO STATE.
No attempt to alter, modify or amend this warranty shall
be effective unless authorized in writing by an officer of
