Electric Safety

WARNING

Before you plug in an electrical cord or turn on power

supply, make sure all controls are in the OFF position.

For appliances equipped with a cord and plug, do not

cut or remove the ground prong. It must be plugged into

a matching grounding type receptacle to avoid electrical

receptacle is properly grounded, the customer should

have it checked by a qualified electrician.

If required by the National Electrical Code (or Canadian

Electrical Code), this appliance must be installed on a

separate branch circuit.

Installer - show the owner the location of the circuit

breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy reference.

Before installing, turn power OFF at the service panel.

Lock service panel to prevent power from being turned

ON accidentally.

Be sure your appliance is properly installed and

grounded by a qualified technician. Installation, electrical

connections and grounding must comply with all

applicable codes.

Microwave Safety

PRECAUTIONS TO BE OBSERVED BEFORE AND

DURING SERVICING TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE

TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY

o Do not operate or allow the oven to be operated with

the door open.

o Make the following safety checks on all ovens to be

serviced before activating the magnetron or other

microwave source, and make repairs as necessary:

1. Interlock operation

2. Proper door closing

3. Seal and sealing surfaces (arcing, wear, and other

damage)

4. Damage to or loosening of hinges and latches

5. Evidence of dropping or abuse

o Before turning on microwave power for any service

test or inspection within the microwave generating

compartments, check the magnetron, wave guide or

o Any defective or misadjusted components in the

interlock, monitor, door seal, and microwave

generation and transmission systems shall be

repaired, replaced, or adjusted by procedures

described in this manual before the oven is released

to the owner.

A microwave leakage check to verify compliance with

the Federal Performance Standard should be

performed on each oven prior to release to the owner.

Power Requirements

The outlet must be properly grounded in accordance with

all applicable codes.

It can be installed inside the cabinet above the

appliance.

(419 mm)

Electrical Installation

Electrical Requirements:

o a three prong grounded outlet

o 120 V, 60 Hz, AC only

o 20 Amp electrical supply with a fuse or a circuit

breaker

This product must be connected to a supply circuit of the

proper voltage and frequency. Wire size must conform to

the requirements of the National Electric Code or the

prevailing local code for this rating. The power supply

cord and plug should be brought to a separate 20-amp

branch circuit single grounded outlet. The outlet box

should be located inside the cabinet above the appliance

(see section Location Requirements). The outlet box and

supply circuit should be installed by a qualified

electrician and conform to the National Electrical Code or

the prevailing local code.

The voltage used must be the same as specified on this

microwave oven. Using a higher voltage is dangerous

and may result in a fire or oven damage. Using a lower

voltage will cause slow cooking. The dealer is not

responsible for any damages resulting from the use of

the oven with any voltage other than specified.

Install Appliance

Removing the mounting plate

Note: To avoid possible damage to the work surface or

to the bottom of the appliance, cover the work surface.

1. Remove any remaining contents from the microwave

oven cavity.

2. Remove the screws from the mounting plate.

The mounting plate will be used as the rear wall

template and for mounting.

3. Reinstall the screws into the holes where they were

removed.

Note: To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not

grip or use the door or door handle while the microwave

oven is being handled.

Finding the wall studs

Note: The microwave must be connected to at least one

wall stud. If no wall studs exist within the cabinet

opening, do not install the microwave oven.

1. Locate the edges of the wall studs within the cabinet

opening by using:

- a stud finder or

- a hammer (tapping lightly across the mounting

surface to find a solid sound).

2. Place a mark halfway between the edges and draw a

line down the center of the studs (See possible wall

studs configuration).

Possible wall stud configurations

These depictions show examples of preferred installation

configurations with the mounting plate.

Note: Care must be taken when drilling holes. Electrical

wires may be concealed behind the wall covering and

contact with them could result in electrical shock.

No wall studs at corner holes

If wall stud is within 61/4'' (159 mm) of the vertical

centerline, only Room Venting (recirculation) or Roof

Venting installations can be done.

CAUTION

Wear gloves to avoid cutting fingers on sharp

edges.

Note: Make sure the cabinet bottom is level.

1. Draw a vertical line on the wall at the center of the

cabinet space.

2. Use the mounting plate as a template and place it on

the wall, making sure that the tabs are touching the

bottom of the cabinet or the level line.

Line up the notch and centerline of the mounting plate

to the centerline on the wall.

While holding the mounting plate, draw circles on the

wall at holes A, B, C and D.

Note: If neither A, B, C nor D is in a stud, find a stud

somewhere in the bottom area of the mounting plate

and draw a fifth circle to line up with the stud.

It is important to use at least one wood screw mounted

firmly in a stud to support the weight of the microwave.

Set the mounting plate aside.

Drill holes on the circles:

o 3/1 6" (5 mm) holes for wood screws (stud)

o 5/8" (16 mm) holes for toggle bolts (no stud)

Attaching the mounting plate (no wall studs at corner

holes)

1. Insert the bolts into the mounting plate through the

holes designated.

2. Attach toggle wings from the back of the mounting

plate onto each bolt. Leave enough space for toggle

wings to go through the wall and to open.
