m
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Smother flames from food fires other than grease fires with baking soda. Never use
water on cooking fires.
Have an appropriate fire extinguisher available, nearby, highly visible and easily
accessible near the oven.
WARNING - TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY IN THE EVENT OF
A GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
•
SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then
turn off the burner. EXERCISE CAUTION TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames
do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
•
•
NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN - You could be burned.
DO NOT USE WATER, including wet rags or towels - a violent steam explosion
will result.
•
Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
1. You know you have a CLASS ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to
operate it.
2. The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
3. The fire department is being called.
4. You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
Burn Prevention
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, potholders, or other flammable materials contact heating elements
or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfac-
es of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns. Among these surfac-
es are oven vent openings, surfaces near these openings and oven doors.
Exercise caution when opening the appliance. Standing to the side, open the door
slowly and slightly to let hot air and/or steam escape. Keep your face clear of the
opening and make sure there are no children or pets near the unit. After the release
of hot air and/or steam, proceed with your cooking. Keep doors shut unless neces-
sary for cooking or cleaning purposes. Do not leave open doors unattended.
Do not heat or warm unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure may cause
the container to burst and cause injury.
Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If a rack must be
moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact the heating elements.
Always use dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result
in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use
a towel or other bulky cloth.
Secure all loose garments, etc. before beginning. Tie long hair so that it does not
hang loose, and do not wear loose fitting clothing or hanging garments, such as
ties, scarves, jewelry, or dangling sleeves.
Child Safety
When children become old enough to use the appliance, it is the legal responsibility
of the parents or legal guardians to ensure that they are instructed in safe operation
of the appliance by qualified persons.

Important Safety Instructions
m
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand, lean, sit, or hang on any part of an appliance,
especially a door, warming drawer or storage drawer. This can damage the appli-
ance, and the unit may tip over, potentially causing severe injury.
Do not allow children to use this appliance unless closely supervised by an adult.
Children and pets should not be left alone or unattended in the area where the ap-
pliance is in use. They should never be allowed to play in its vicinity, whether or not
the appliance is in use.
CAUTION - Items of interest to children should not be stored in an appliance, in
cabinets above an appliance or on the backsplash. Children climbing on an appli-
ance to reach items could be seriously injured.
Cleaning Safety
Do not clean the appliance while it is still hot. Some cleaners produce noxious
fumes when applied to a hot surface. Wet cloths or sponges can cause burns from
steam.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: The California Safe Drinking and Toxic Enforce-
ment Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known
to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires
businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances. The burn-
ing of gas cooking fuel and the elimination of soil during self-cleaning can generate
small amounts of Carbon Monoxide. The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens
gives off very small amounts of formaldehyde during the first several cleaning cy-
cles. California lists formaldehyde as a potential cause of cancer. Carbon Monox-
ide is a potential cause of reproductive toxicity. Exposure to these substances can
be minimized by:
1. Providing good ventilation when cooking with gas.
2. Providing good ventilation during and immediately after self-cleaning the oven.
3. Operating the unit according to the instructions in this manual.
When self-cleaning, confirm that the door locks and will not open. If the door does
not lock, do not run Self-Clean. Contact service.
Wipe out excessive spillage before self-cleaning the oven.
Birds have very sensitive respiratory systems . Keep pet birds out of the kitchen or
other rooms where kitchen fumes could reach them. During self-clean, fumes are
released that may be harmful to birds. Other kitchen fumes such as overheating
margarines and cooking oils may also be harmful.
Keep oven free from grease build up.
Cookware Safety
Do not place food directly on oven bottom.
Follow the manufacturer's directions when using cooking or roasting bags.
Do not clean parts or accessories in the self-clean oven.

Cooling Fan
Oven Vent
The cooling fan runs during all cooking modes. The fan can be heard when it is run-
ning, and warm air may be felt as it is released from the oven vent. The fan may
also run after the oven is off.
The oven vent is located at the bottom 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.

Oven Bottom
The convection fan operates during all convection modes. When the oven is oper-
ating in a convection mode, the fan turns off automatically when the door is
opened. The convection fan may also run during self-clean.
The oven bottom conceals the lower heating element. As a result the element is
protected from damage and spills.
Note: Do not place food directly on the oven bottom.

Operation
About the
Appliance
Thermador Professional combines timeless design, modern technology and premi-
um operating convenience.
The classic design of Thermador has made it a symbol of the perfect American
kitchen for over 70 years. Our ovens today lead the way in continuing this tradition.
Behind the classic design is modern and perfected technology that ensures a high
degree of efficiency. For instance, we have further improved the distribution of heat
in the oven by using newly designed elements. The advantage of this results in
shorter cooking times, perfect results and lower energy costs.
The oven also includes features that fulfill all of your needs. The rotisserie makes
food crisp on all sides. The probe can be used to determine the internal doneness
of food, especially meat and poultry. Similarly, the broil pan and grid included with
the oven offer the flexibility you need when cooking, since they can be used to hold
food, collect fat or provide a supporting surface.
This oven is very convenient and easy to operate, even with the wide variety of op-
tions. The cooking mode and temperature can be adjusted with very little effort.
The additional functions such as Fast Preheat, Cook Time and Sabbath Mode can
be set at the touch of a button in just a few seconds, and the display always pre-
sents the most important information while you are cooking.

Getting the Most Out of Your Appliance
General Tips
Baking results are better if pans are placed in the center of the oven. If baking more
Pan Placement
than one pan on a rack, allow at least 1" to 1 ½" of air space around the pan. When
baking four cake layers at the same time, stagger pans on two racks so that one
pan is not directly above the other.
Do not use aluminum foil or protective liners to line any part of the appliance, es-
pecially the oven bottom. Installing these liners may result in risk of electric shock
or fire.
Aluminum Foil
•
•
Place oven racks in desired position before heating the oven.
Preheating the Oven
Preheat the oven when using the (Max) Broil, (Max) Convection Broil, Bake and
True Convection modes.
•
•
•
•
Preheat is not used for Speed Convection.
Allow oven to preheat while preparing recipe ingredients or food items.
Setting a higher temperature does not shorten preheat time.
Once oven is preheated, place food in the oven as quickly as possible to mini-
mize the loss of heat and reduction of oven temperature.
•
Use Fast Preheat to speed up preheating.
•
•
•
Use the cooking recommendations as a guide.
For Best Results
Open the door as briefly as possible to avoid temperature reduction.
Use the interior oven light to view the food through the oven window rather than
opening the door frequently.
•
Use the Timer to keep track of cooking times.
•
•
•
Glass baking dishes absorb heat. Follow manufacturers' recommendations.
For tender, light, golden brown crusts, use light, shiny metal bakeware.
Baking Pans and Dishes
Dark, rough or dull pans (nonstick or anodized) will absorb heat and result in a
browner, crisper crust. Some manufacturers recommend reducing the temper-
ature 25 ºF when using this type of pan. Follow manufacturers' recommenda-
tions.
•
•
•
Insulated cookie sheets or bakeware may increase the length of cooking time.
Do not set broil pans or any other heavy object on the open oven door.
Do not keep the empty broil pan in the oven during cooking as this changes
cooking performance. Store the broil pan outside the oven.
•
When cooking at high altitudes, recipes and cooking times will vary.
High Altitude Baking
Condensation
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.
•
It is normal for 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 may condense on any surface cooler than the inside of the oven, such
as the control panel.

Bake is cooking with dry, heated air. Both the upper and lower el-
ements cycle to maintain the oven temperature.
Bake
r
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.
Tips
•
•
Preheat the oven if the recipe recommends it.
Baking time will vary with the size, shape and finish of the bakeware. Dark metal
pans or nonstick coatings will cook faster with darker results. Insulated bake-
ware will lengthen the cook time for most foods.

•
•
•
For best results, bake food on a single rack with at least 1-1 / " space between
2
pans or dishes and oven walls.
Eliminate heat loss from the oven by using the window to periodically check
food for doneness instead of opening the door.
If multiple racks are necessary, use a maximum of 2 racks. For cakes use rack
positions 3 and 5, for cookies use rack positions 2 and 5. Stagger pans so that
one is not directly above the other (see graphic below). See "Pan Placement"
under "General Tips" for more info. You may also consider using a convection
mode.

True Convection is well suited for cooking individual serving-sized foods such as
cookies and biscuits. It is also good for cooking on multiple racks (2 or 3) at the
same time. Baking cookies is possible on 6 racks simultaneously. In this case, the
baking time increases slightly. The benefits of True Convection include:
•
•
Even browning.
Time savings as a result of using multiple racks at one time.
Tips
•
•
•
Reduce recipe temperature by 25 ºF. Refer to True Convection chart.
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 1 ½" of air space
around the pan.
•
For cakes use rack positions 2 and 5 (see graphic below).

Roast uses both the upper and lower elements to maintain the
oven temperature. Roasting uses more intense heat from the up-
per element than the lower element. This results in more browning
of the exterior while the inside remains especially moist.
Roast
r
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.
Convection Roast uses heat from the top and bottom elements
as well as heat circulated by the convection fan.
Convection
Roast
á
The Convection Roast mode is well suited for preparing tender cuts of meat and
poultry.
The benefits of Convection Roast mode include:
•
•
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. Refer to Convection
Roast chart for examples.
•
•
Do not cover meat or use cooking bags.
Use the broil pan and grid provided with the oven for roasting. A shallow, un-
covered 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 overbrowning.
•
•
Let meat stand covered with foil 10-15 minutes after removing it from the oven.
Refer to chart for recommended rack positions.

Broil/Max Broil
Broil uses intense heat radiated from the upper element.
Max Broil uses a larger broil element which allows you to broil
more food at one time. See "Max Cook" in "Basic Features" for
more information.
w
The Broil mode is best suited for cooking thin, tender cuts of meat (1" or less), poul-
try and fish. It can also be used to brown breads and casseroles. Always broil with
the door closed.
To use the broil pan and grid:
•
•
For normal Broil: food should be placed in the center of the broil pan and grid.
For Max Broil: food should be spread out over the entire broil pan and grid.
The benefits of broiling include:
•
•
Fast and efficient cooking.
Cooking without the addition of fats or liquids.
Tips
•
•
•
•
•
Preheat oven 3-4 minutes. Do not preheat for more than 5 minutes.
Steaks and chops should be at least ¾" thick.
Brush fish and poultry with butter or oil to prevent sticking.
Use the broil pan and grid included with the 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 once during the recommended cook time (see Broil Chart for exam-
ples).
When top browning casseroles, use only metal or glass ceramic dishes such as
Corningware®.
Never use heat-proof glass (Pyrex®); it cannot tolerate the high temperature.

Convection
Broil/Max
Convection Broil
Convection Broil is similar to Broil. It combines intense heat from
the upper element with heat circulated by a convection fan.
à
Max Convection Broil uses a larger broil element which allows
you to broil more food at one time.
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.
To use the broil pan:
•
For normal Convection Broil: food should be placed in the center of the broil pan
and grid.
•
For Max Convection Broil: food should be spread out over the entire broil pan
and grid.
Tips
•
•
•
•
Preheat oven 3-4 minutes. Do not preheat for more than 5 minutes.
Steaks and Chops 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.

Speed Convection uses all heating elements as well as the con-
vection fan to evenly distribute heat throughout the oven cavity.
The main difference between speed convection and other convec-
tion modes is that it does not require preheating.
Speed
Convection
T
Speed Convection is well suited for frozen convenience foods such as fish sticks
and chicken nuggets. The benefits of Speed Convection include:
•
•
Decrease in cook time since preheating is not necessary.
Crispy and evenly browned frozen foods.
Tips
•
Begin cooking all frozen convenience products in a cold, non-preheated oven.
The food will still be done in package time.
•
•
•
Follow package instructions for time and temperature.
Flipping of food halfway through recommended cook time is not necessary.
Frozen foods that are sold in microwaveable plastic containers should not be
used in this mode.
•
Cook food items on rack position 3 unless directed otherwise by the product
manufacturer.
•
•
•
If baking more than one product simultaneously, use rack positions 2 and 5.
Evenly space food items on pan.
For double ovens, only one cavity is available when using Speed Convection.

In Warm, the upper and lower elements maintain a low tempera-
ture in the oven cavity in order to keep food at serving tempera-
ture.
Warm
t
•
•
•
Use the Warm mode to keep cooked foods hot until ready to serve.
Warm mode temperatures are 150 ºF - 225 ºF.
Foods that must be kept moist should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil.
Caution:
m
When using Warm mode, follow these guidelines:
•
•
Do not use the Warm mode to heat cold food.
Be sure to maintain proper food temperature. The USDA recommends holding
hot food at 140 ºF or warmer.
•
DO NOT warm food longer than one hour.
Dehydrate dries with heat from a third element behind the back
wall of the oven. The heat is circulated throughout the oven by the
convection fan.
Dehydrate
T
Use Dehydrate to dry and/or preserve foods such as fruits, vegetables and herbs.
This mode holds an optimum low temperature (100 ºF - 175 ºF) while circulating
the heated air to slowly remove moisture. The oven stays on for 48 hours before
shutting off automatically.
Tips
•
Dry most fruits and vegetables at 150 ºF. Dry herbs at 100 ºF (refer to the De-
hydrate Chart for examples).
•
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. Check
food at the minimum drying time.
•
•
•
Multiple drying racks (not included) can be used simultaneously.
Treat fruits with antioxidants to avoid discoloration.
Consult a food preservation book, county Cooperative Extension Office or li-
brary for additional information.

turned slowly on a skewer in the center of the oven. As a result,
the food receives equal heat distribution on all sides.
Rotisserie
ß
The Rotisserie mode is best suited to cooking large pieces of meat (for example, a
roast, a turkey or a chicken).
Note: the maximum weight allowed for the rotisserie is 12 lbs.
The benefits of Rotisserie cooking include:
•
•
Sealed in flavor and juices.
Cooking without the addition of fats or liquids.

Trussing Poultry for the
Rotisserie
1. Slip one of the forks on the skewer with the
tines pointing to the tip of the skewer.
Loosely tighten the screw to keep it from
slipping.
2. Insert the skewer through the bird securing
with the fork.
3. Cut 24” of kitchen string and lay it under
the bird, breast side up, with equal lengths
of string on each side.
4. Wrap each end of the string around each
of the wings; catch each wing tip as the
string is brought tightly together at the top
and knotted. Do not cut off the extra string.
5. Cut another 20” of string and lay it under
the back. Wrap it around the tail then
around the skewer. Cinch tightly.
6. Pull legs forward; cross them on top of the
skewer; bring string around and tie a tight
knot.
7. Connect the string holding the legs to the
string holding the wings; then knot. Add
the other fork and push tines into the
drumsticks to secure.
8. Check the balance by rolling the skewer in
your palms. The bird should not rotate or
be loose in any way. If so, redo the truss-
ing. The bird will not cook evenly if it
moves on the skewer.

Cleaning and Maintenance
Cleaning
During Self-Clean, the oven is heated to a very high temperature. Soil is burned off
at this temperature.
Self-Clean
ATTENTION: Wipe out excessive spillage before self-cleaning the oven.
ATTENTION: Do not clean parts or accessories in the Self-Clean oven.
To set the Self-Clean mode:
1. Turn the heating mode dial to "CLEAN".
2. Turn the temperature dial to "CLEAN".
3. Set the cleaning time (1:30 to 2:30 hours) using "+" and "-".
Self-Clean starts after a few seconds and the oven is locked. The oven can be
opened again only after the oven has cooled.
To cancel Self-Clean, turn the heating mode dial to "OFF" position.
A moist cloth is the best way to wipe remaining ash from the oven.
Note:
•
For double oven models: while Self-Clean is in progress in one oven, the other
oven must be off.
•
•
The oven light cannot be turned on during self-cleaning.
The special heat-resistant enamel and the polished components in the oven
can become discolored over time. This is normal and does not affect operation.
Under no circumstances should scouring pads or abrasive cleaners be used to
treat discolorations.
Do not use commercial oven cleaners such as Easy Off®. They may damage the
oven finish or parts.
Avoid These Cleaners
Never use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners.

Maintenance
Replacing an Oven Light
Caution:
m
•
Make sure the appliance and lights are cool and power to the ap-
pliance has been turned off before replacing the light bulb(s). Fail-
ure to do so could result in electrical shock or burns.
•
•
•
The lenses must be in place when using the appliance.
The lenses serve to protect the light bulb from breaking.
The lenses are made of glass. Handle carefully to avoid breaking.
Broken glass could cause an injury.
•
Light socket is live when door is open.
Use only 10 Watt, 12 Volt bi-pin halogen light bulbs. These bulbs can be purchased

STATEMENT OF LIMITED PRODUCT WARRANTY
The limited warranty provided by BSH Home Appliances Thermador in this State-
ment of Limited Product Warranty applies only to the Thermador appliance sold to
you, the first using purchaser, provided that the Product was purchased:
What this Warranty Cov-
ers & Who it Applies to
•
•
•
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 only to the first purchaser of the Product and
are not transferable.
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.
Thermador warrants that the Product is free from defects in materials and work-
manship for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of purchase. The fore-
going timeline begins to run upon the date of purchase, and shall not be stalled,
tolled, extended, or suspended, for any reason whatsoever.
How Long the Warranty
Lasts
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 re-
spect to such parts. Thermador's sole liability and responsibility hereunder is to re-
pair 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 your-
self, or use an un-authorized servicer; Thermador will have no responsibility or lia-
bility 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. Autho-
rized service providers are those persons or companies that have been specially
trained on Thermador products, and who possess, in Thermador's opinion, a su-
perior reputation for customer service and technical ability (note that they are inde-
pendent 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, haz-
ardous, 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 lia-
ble and responsible for any travel time or other special charges by the service com-
pany, assuming they agree to make the service call.
Repair/Replace as Your
Exclusive Remedy
Thermador is under no obligation, at law or otherwise, to provide you with any con-
cessions, including repairs, pro-rates, or Product replacement, once this warranty
has expired.

CLUSIVE REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO PRODUCT, WHETHER THE CLAIM

LIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE. THIS WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER
WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. ANY WARRANTY IM-
PLIED BY LAW, WHETHER FOR MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL BE EFFECTIVE ONLY

TIVE. IN NO EVENT WILL THE MANUFACTURER BE LIABLE FOR CONSE-
QUENTIAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, "BUSINESS LOSS", AND/OR
PUNITIVE DAMAGES, LOSSES, OR EXPENSES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMI-
TATION 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 INCI-
DENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, AND SOME STATES DO NOT AL-
LOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE
ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. THIS WARRANTY GIVES

rized in writing by an officer of BSH.
