INSTALLATION GUIDE
REQUIREMENTS FOR INSTALLATION
CHECKING THE CABINET: The bottom shelf of your cabinet must be
strong enough to support an additional weight of 90 lbs. Please note, this
weight is in addition to the normal contents of the cabinet as well as any
other objects hung from the bottom of the cabinet. To check the strength
of your cabinet, we recommend you fill some plastic milk jugs with
sand(5 gallons of water) and gradually place them on the bottom shelf.
As you add each jug, inspect the cabinet for any damage(ie., separation
of joints, splitting or cracking of the cabinet, etc). If you see any damage,
you should not attach your microwave oven under the cabinet.
THE MANUFACTURER IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE
TO YOUR CABINET.
***CHECKPOINT***
1. Check for rotted wood and other weaknesses.
2. Check the number of screws used to install your cabinet. If your
cabinet is attached to the wall with only two screws at the top then you
should add two screws at the bottom in order to firmly secure your
cabinet to the wall(please make certain the screws penetrate the wall
studs by at least 1/2²).
3. Check the thickness of your cabinets bottom shelf (It should be at
least 3/16² thick).

15 amps.

outlet.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURES
1. Remove contents from the bottom shelf of your cabinet.
2. Location of template: Select the proper position on the inside or the
bottom of your cabinet for mounting the oven. Then, refer to the
attached template instruction.
3. Use center punch or nail to mark the position of the 4 holes on the
template. Then remove the template.
4. Drill 4 holes through the cabinet at the center punched position using
your 1/2² drill bit.
5. Remove 4 plugs from top of cabinet using teaspoon. Save plugs and
replace if oven is to be used later as a counter top.
6. Select the 4 short(1-3/8²) mounting screws or the 4 longer(2-3/8²)
mounting screws and insert them into the 4 holes on top of the oven.
7. The spacers, which are included in this package are provided for you
so that you can mount your oven flush with the front of your cabinet.
See table 1 below.

Table 1 will provide you with an
approximate Idea regarding how
many spacers will be required to
mount the unit flush with the front
of your cabinet.
MOUNTING THE OVEN
1. Lift the microwave oven so the mounting screw enter into the 4 holes.
To hold the microwave oven securely, you should position some
support material(such as a book) underneath the microwave oven(see

Option A: Drilling from Inside Cabinet
If you can not drill from the inside of your cabinet, see Option B for
drilling instructions.
1. Place the Template inside the cabinet so that the front line of the
Template will be aligned with the front edge of the cabinet. If
necessary, cut some areas of the Template in order to make it fit
properly within your cabinet.
2. If the cabinet has a partition, please do the following:
a. Cut Template B from Template A along the dotted line.
b. Cut Template A into two pieces to fit each side of the partition.
c. Position one piece of Template A inside the cabinet making certain
the front line of Template A is aligned with the front edge of the
cabinet.
d. Position Template B in front of the cabinet so that the arrow, on
Template B, is aligned with the hole center line in Template A (See
figure A).
e. Position the other part of Template A inside the cabinet so that the
hole center line aligns with the arrow on Template B (See figure B).
If you have followed the instructions properly, the distance between
the right and left hole center lines can be determined from figure E.
PARTITION
Option B: Drilling from the Bottom of the Cabinet
1. Tape the Template to the bottom of the cabinet so that the front line
of the Template will be aligned with the front edge of the cabinet, If

c. Position Template B towards the rear of the cabinet so that the
arrow, on Template B, is aligned with the hole center line on
TemplateA(SeefigureC).
d. Position the other part of Template A under the cabinet so that the
