Thermador ® Professional ® Indoor Grill Care and Use Manual
If you smell gas, do not at-
tempt to light any burners.
1. Make sure that all control knobs are
turned to the OFF position.
2. Open the window to allow any accumu-
lated gas to dissipate and wait five minutes
before trying to light the unit.
3. If the smell of gas is still present, turn off
the gas supply to the unit at the manual
shut off valve.
4. Check the unit for leaks by following the
instructions in Section 6 in the Installation
Instructions or call your authorized
servicer or the gas company.
FOR BEST RESULTS
• Thaw f ood items before grilling.
• Preheating provides the high heat needed to
brown and seal in juices.
• After preheating, reduce the flame to setting
listed on Grilling Chart.
• The degree of doneness is influenced by the type
of meat, cut of meat (i.e. size, shape and thick-
ness), heat setting selected, and length of time on
the grill.
• Shorten the preheat time when grilling high-fat
cuts of meat or poultry, such as chicken thighs.
This will help reduce flare-ups.
• Cuts of meat with high fat content should not be
grilled.
• Lightly oil grill when cooking low-fat cuts of meat,
fish or poultry, such as lean hamburger patties,
shrimp or skinless chicken breasts.
• For best results food should be turned only once.
• Avoid puncturing or cutting the meats to test
doneness. This will allow juices to escape.
• When using a high flame, add barbecue sauce to
food during the last 10 minutes before removing
from grill.
