WARNINGS FOR SAFE GAS INSTALLATIONS  
IMPORTANT INFORMATION  
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS  
This outdoor gas cooking appliance is not intended to  
be installed in or on recreational vehicles and/or boats.  
Readthismanualcarefullybeforeusingthecooktop  
to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to  
persons.  
Always inspect the natural gas or LP gas hose assembly  
before each use of the appliance. If there is evidence of  
excessive abrasion or wear, or if the hose is cut, it must  
be replaced prior to the appliance being put into  
operation. Replacement hose assemblies can be  
purchasedatbarbecuesupplystores,ororderedthrough  
Thermador®. If purchased at a retail outlet, the hose  
assembly must be identical to the one supplied with the  
unit. To inspect the hose assembly, check under the  
unit through access opening in the enclosure.  
Insureproperinstallation.Havetheinstallershow  
you where the gas supply shutoff valve is located, and  
how to shut off the gas to the cooktop. Always adhere  
to the minimum clearances to combustible materials as  
specified in Section 3.  
• Do not repair or replace any part of this  
appliance unless specifically recommended in this  
manual. All other servicing should be referred to a  
qualified service technician.  
Keep the area around the appliance clear and free from  
combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable  
vapors and liquids.  
• If you smell gas when the unit is not in use, have the  
unit checked for leaks as defined in Section 6. Finding a  
gas leak is not a do-it-yourself procedure as some leaks  
can only be found with the burner control in the ON  
position. This must be done by a qualified technician.  
Do not place any items in front of the unit while in use.  
This could obstruct the proper flow of air needed for  
proper combustion and ventilation.  
• If you smell gas when the unit is in use, immediately  
shut off all controls. Let the gas dissipate for at least five  
minutes. Relight the burner(s) and verify that they are  
operating properly. If the burner(s) fail to relight or are  
not operating properly, shut of the gas to the unit and  
have the unit checked by a qualified service technician.  
Keepventilationopening(s)oftheLPcylinderenclosure  
free and clear of obstructions and debris.  
Keep electrical supply cord and the fuel supply hose  
away from any heated surfaces.  
• This appliance is equipped with a three-prong  
(grounding) plug for your protection against  
shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a  
properly grounded three-prong receptacle. Do not cut  
or remove the grounding prong from this plug.  
Do not leave the cooktop unattended while  
cooking.  
• Be aware that spiders and insects can nest in  
the burners of this cooktop. This can obstruct the  
proper flow of gas into the burner and cause improper  
operation, fire hazard and potential damage to the unit.  
Inspect the burners periodically, or immediately if any  
of the symptoms denoted in Section 7 exist. Check  
Burner Air Adjustment, Page 12.

the potential for fire or an explosion, the following  
precautions should be observed when using, filling or  
storing an LP cylinder:  
• L’alimentation du gaz doit étre fennée a  
la bouteille de gaz de pétrole liquéfié,  
lorsque cet appareil de cuisson extérieur  
n’ est pas utilisé.  
• Never use a dented or rusty LP tank. If there is  
any question as to the soundness of the tank, have it  
checked by your LP supplier.  
• La bouteille d’alimentation en gaz de  
pétrole liquéfié doit étre débranchée,  
lorsque cet appareil de cuisson extérieur  
n’est pas utilisé.  
• Never use a tank with a damaged or defective  
shut off valve.  
• Always close the tank shut off valve after use.  
• Do not overfill the LP cylinder. Never fill the LP  
cylinder beyond eighty percent (80%) of its capacity.  
Overfilling will cause the pressure relief valve on the  
cylinder to vent excess gas vapor. This vapor is  
combustible and can ignite, causing a fire.  
FORYOUR SAFETY  
An LP cylinder not connected for use shall  
not be stored in the vicinity of this or any  
other appliance.  
• When transporting an LP cylinder, insure it is in  
an upright position and away from any sources of high  
heat.  
AVERTISSEMENT  
Une bouteille de propane qui n’est pas  
raccordée en vue de son utilisation,ne doit  
pas etre entreposée dans le voisinage de cet  
appareil ou de tout autre appareil.  
• Do not store additional LP cylinders inside the  
enclosure for the unit. Cylinders must be stored  
outdoors in a well-ventilated area out of direct sunlight  
and/or sources of high heat, and out of the reach of  
children.  
LPcylindersupplysystemmustbearrangedfor

FORYOUR SAFETY  
For Outdoor Use Only. If stored indoors,  
detach and leave cylinder outdoors.

SECTION 3: SITE PREPARATION  
BUILT-IN INSTALLATIONS  
CABINET PREPARATION  
Determine a suitable location for the cooktop by taking  
into account exposure to wind and availability of gas and  
electrical supplies. Insure that the gas supply line and  
electrical supply are located in close proximity to the  
unit.  
The model SB2B is designed for easy installation into  
masonry enclosures. For noncombustible applications,  
the cooktop drops into the opening shown in Figure 1  
(below). A ledge is required to support the cooktop  
from the bottom. The supporting ledges must be level  
and flat. The counter top should also be level.  
The 8-foot-long electrical cord attached to the cooktop  
exits from the bottom, left rear corner of the rough-in  
box. Keep connections to the unit as short as possible  
and allow for installation and removal of the unit from  
the enclosure.  
It is recommended that ventilation holes are provided in  
the enclosure in the event of a gas leak. The installer-  
supplied gas shut-off valve must be installed in an easily  
accessible location.  
Allow adequate area around the unit for dissipation of  
smoke produced during cooking.

SECTION 9: SERVICE  
Troubleshooting  
Before Phoning for Service  
Power Failure - In the event of a power failure, the Thermador® Outdoor Cooktop may still be used by lighting  
the burners with a match.  
If Burners Fail to Ignite - If the burners fail to ignite  
verify that the unit is connected to a properly  
grounded duplex outlet. If electricity is present,  
look for spark to jump from the spark ignitor to  
the burner when the ignition switch is depressed  
and held. Make sure that the spark ignitors and  
burners are clean and dry. Verify that burner caps  
are in the correct position on the burner bases.
