Step 2: Cabinet Preparation

• The range is a free standing unit. If the unit is to be
placed adjacent to cabinets, the clearances shown in
"Installation Clearances" on page 5 are required. The
same clearances apply to island installations, except
for the overhead cabinets, which must have a space
wide enough to accept the flared island hood.
• Any openings in the wall behind the range and in the
floor under the range must be sealed.
• The gas and electrical supply should be within the
zones shown in Figure 4 on page 8.
• When installing against a combustible surface, a Low
Backguard is optional. A THERMADOR
Backguard must be purchased separately. See Step 7
for backguard, kits and installation information.
• Rear clearance to a combustible surface is zero inches
(see "Installation Clearances").
• When the range is installed against a combustible side
wall a minimum clearance of 5'' (127 mm) is needed
from the side of the range to the wall.
• Always keep appliance area clear from combustible
materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and
liquids.
• The maximum depth of overhead cabinets installed on
either side of the hood is 13" (330 mm).
• DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion and
ventilation air to the unit.
• There is a 36'' (914 mm) minimum clearance required
between the top of the cooking surface and the bottom
of an unprotected cabinet. A 30'' (762 mm) clearance
can be used when the bottom of the wood or metal
cabinet is protected by not less than 1/4'' (6 mm) of a
flame retardant material covered with not less than No.
28 MSG sheet steel, 0.015'' (0.38 mm) thick stainless
steel, 0.024'' (0.61 mm) aluminum, or 0.02'' (0.51 mm)
thick copper.
Flame retardant materials bear the mark:
UNDERWRITERS LABORATORIES INC. CLASSIFIED
MINERAL AND FIBER BOARDS SURFACE BURNING
CHARACTERISTICS, followed by the flame spread and
smoke ratings. These designations are shown as "FHC
(FIame Spread/Smoke Developed)." Materials with "O"
flame spread ratings are flame retardant. Local codes may
allow other flame spread ratings. It is the responsibility of
the installer to ensure installation is in accordance with
these ratings.
