Thermador PCG366G Instrução De Instalação

English 3

It is strongly recommended that this appliance be installed 
in conjunction with a suitable overhead vent hood. (See 
“Step 1: Ventilation Requirements”.) 

Check local building codes for the proper method of 
appliance installation. Local codes vary. Installation, 
electrical connections and grounding must comply with all 
applicable codes. In the absence of local codes the 
appliance should be installed in accordance with the 
National Electric Code ANSI Z223.1 current issue and 
National Gas Code ANSI/NFPA 70 – current issue. In 
Canada, installation must be in accordance with the CAN 
1-B149.1 and .2 – Installation Codes for Gas Burning 
Appliances and/or local codes. 

This appliance is equipped with an intermittent/interrupted 
ignition device that cycles the two far left surface burners 
on and off when in the ExtraLow setting.

(1) When connecting the unit to propane 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 (34.9 
mb) from the propane gas tank regulator. 

(2) This unit is designed as a cooking appliance. 
Based on safety considerations, never use it for 
warming or heating a room. 

Due to the high heat of the cooktop burners, installing a 
microwave oven with a ventilation system over the cooktop 
is not recommended. 

This appliance complies with one or more of the following 
standards: 

•

UL 858, Standard for the Safety of Household Electric 
Ranges 

•

UL 923, Standard for the Safety of Microwave Cooking 
Appliances 

•

UL 507, Standard for the Safety of Electric Fans 

•

ANSI Z21.1 American National Standard for Household 
Cooking Gas Appliances 

•

CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 113-M1984 Fans and Ventilators 

•

CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 61-M89 Household Cooking 
Ranges

It is the responsibility of the owner and the installer to 
determine if additional requirements and/or standards 
apply to specific installations.

To eliminate risk of burns or fire caused by 
reaching over heated surface units, cabinet 
storage located above the surface units should 
be avoided.  

Remove all tape and packaging before using the appliance. 
Destroy the packaging after unpacking the appliance. 
Never allow children to play with packaging material. 

Step 1: Ventilation Requirements

It is strongly recommended that a suitable exhaust hood be 
installed above the appliance. Downdraft ventilation should 
not be used. The following table indicates the ventilation 
hood options and blower capacity guidelines that are 
recommended for use with all Thermador cooktops. 

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. 

Do not install a microwave oven/ ventilator combination 
above the cooktop, as these types of units do not provide 
the proper ventilation and are not suitable for use with the 
cooktop. 

•

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 appliance cooking surface by 
3" on each side. 

•

For best smoke elimination, the lower edge of the hood 
should be installed 30" above the appliance cooking 
surface. (See Figure 1). 

•

If the hood contains any combustible materials (i.e., a 
wood covering), it must be installed a minimum of 40” 
above the cooking surface. 

Most hoods contain combustible components which must 
be considered when planning the installation.
