Normal Installation Steps
Anti-Tip Block Installation Instructions
The 6-inch anti-tip wooden block must be provided by
the installer. The anti-tip block reduces the risk of drawer
tipping when installed properly. Install the anti-tip block
14 13/16 inches above the installation opening oor (where
the unit will sit) for a standard installation or 14 5/8 inches
for a ush installation. See Figure 3 (standard installation)
or Figure 4 (ush installation) and Figure 5.
If the Drawer Microwave is ever moved to a different loca-
tion, the anti-tip block must also be moved and installed.
If the anti-tip block is to be anchored to the wall make cer-
tain that the screws holding it penetrate into the structural
members (studs) behind any covering such as drywall.
The anti-tip block prevents serious injury that might result
from spilled hot liquids.
Anti-Tip
block
The unit requires a 120 volt, 60 Hz, 15 AMP (minimum)
circuit. It is recommended that the unit be installed on a
separate circuit that serves only this appliance.
This appliance is tted with a 3-prong grounded electrical
plug. Do not modify the plug or use an adapter. If the plug
does not t with the available receptacle, have a licensed
electrician install a properly grounded outlet before
proceeding with the installation. The power cord length is
approximately 46".
Installer - show the owner the location of the circuit
breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy reference.
