• Proper installation is the responsibility of the installer.

• Product failure due to improper installation is not covered under the Warranty.

• Please read all instructions thoroughly before installing the Over the Range Microwave Oven. Two people are recommended to install this product.

• If a new electrical outlet is required, its installation should be completed by a qualiﬁ ed electrician before the Microwave Oven is installed. See 3 ELECTRICAL GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS on page 2.

2 WALL CONSTRUCTION

This Microwave Oven/Hood should be mounted against and supported by a ﬂ at vertical wall. The wall must be ﬂ at for proper installation. If the wall is not ﬂ at, use spacers to ﬁ ll in the gaps. Wall construction should be a minimum of 2" x 4" wood studding and ³⁄ The moun ting surfa ces m ust b e cap able of su pportin g we ight of 110 pounds—the oven and contents—AND the weight of all items which would normally be stored in the top cabinet above the unit.

The unit should be attached to a minimum of one 2" x 4" wall stud or two 2" x 3" wall studs.

To ﬁ nd the location of the studs, one of the following methods may be used:

A. Use a stud finder, a magnetic device which locates the

nails in the stud.

B. Use a hammer to tap lightly across the mounting surface

to find a solid sound. This will indicate stud location.

8" or more thick dry wall or plaster/lath.

from floor

The center of the stud can be located by probing the wall with a small nail to ﬁ nd the edges of the stud and then placing a mark halfway between the edges. The center of any adjacent studs will normally be 16" or 24" to either side of this mark.

3 ELECTRICAL GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

Thi s app lian ce mus t be groun ded. This ove n is equip ped wi th a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. It must be plugg ed into a w all recept acle that is pr oper ly in stall ed an d grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.

WARNING - Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

The oven is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CUT OR REMOVE THE GROUNDING PIN FROM THE PLUG.

DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD.

The Power Supply Cord and plug must be connected to a separate 120 Volt AC, 60 Hz, 15 Amp, or more branch circuit, single grounded receptacle. The receptacle should be located inside the cabinet directly above the Microwave Oven mounting location as shown in Figure 2.

NOTE:

1. If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions, consult a qualiﬁ ed electrician or serviceperson.

2. Neither Electrolux nor the dealer can accept any liability for damage to the oven or personal injury resulting from failure to observe the correct electrical connection procedures.

4 HOOD EXHAUST DUCT

When the hood is vented to the outside, a hood exhaust duct is requi red. All d uctwor k mu st be meta l; abso lutely do not use plastic duct. Check that all connections are made securely. Please read the following carefully:

EXHAUST CONNECTION: The hood exhaust has been designed to connect to a standard 3 round duct is required, a rectangular-to-round adapter must be used.

REAR EXHAUST: If a rear or horizontal exhaust is to be used, care should be taken to align the exhaust with the space between the studs, or wall should be prepared at the time it is constructed by leaving enough space between wall studs to accommodate exhaust.

MAXIMUM DUCT LENGTH: For satisfactory air movement, the total duct length of 3 duct should not exceed 140 feet.

Elbows, adapters, wall caps, roof caps, etc. present additional resistance to air ﬂ ow and are equivalent to a section of straight duct which is longer than their actual physical size. When calculating the total length, add the equivalent lengths of all transitions and adapters plus the length of all straight duct sections. Figure 3 shows the approximate feet of equivalent length of some typical ductwork parts. Use the values in parentheses for calculating air ﬂ ow resistance equivalent, which should total less than 140 feet.

8 VENTILATION SYSTEM

(PREPARING OVEN FOR INSTALLATION)

This microwave oven/hood is designed for adaptation to three types of hood ventilation systems. Select the type required for your installation.

RECIRCULATING — non-vented, ductless. Follow installation procedure (A). Recirculating requires the use of the Charcoal Filter, which has already been installed in the oven.

HORIZONTAL EXHAUST — outside ventilation. Follow installation procedure (B).

VERTICAL EXHAUST — outside ventilation. Follow installation procedure (C).

(A) RECIRCULATING: NON-VENTED, DUCTLESS OPERATION

1. The unit is shipped assembled for recirculating.

2. The Exhaust Damper Assembly is not required for recirculating exhaust.

3. Charcoal Filter, which was installed in your microwave oven, is used for nonvented, recirculated installation. The Charcoal Filter should be replaced every 6 to 12 months, depending on use. Remove three Hood Louver screws. Tilt the Hood louver downward then pull it out so bottom tabs become unlocked. Pull the Charcoal Filter upward to remove from your oven. Attach the Charcoal Filter to the upper side of the oven by sliding into the tabs. See Figure 6-1, 6-2.

Charcoal ﬁ lter

(B) HORIZONTAL EXHAUST: OUTSIDE VENTILATION

1. Remove and save 2 screws from back edge and 1 screw from the top center of Fan Cover Bracket. Remove Fan Cover Bracket by sliding it in the opposite direction of the arrow on the Fan Cover Bracket, as shown in Figure 7.

2. Withdraw Hood Fan Unit carefully and slip wires out of Wire Box. See Figure 8.

CAUTION: Do not pull or stretch hood fan wiring.

3. Rotate the Hood Fan Unit and turn end-over-end so that the fan blade openings are facing the back of the oven. Replace Hood Fan Unit into the oven. Be careful not to pinch the lead wire between the inner bracket and the Hood Fan Unit. See Figure 9.

4. Put the lead wire into Wire Box. See Figure 10.

5. Replace the Fan Cover Bracket by sliding it into the slits in the same direction as the arrow on the Fan Cover Bracket. Make sure the fan blades are visible through the rear openings in the oven before proceeding. Attach Fan Cover Bracket to unit with 3 screws, which were removed in Step 1 above. See Figure 11. The Hood Fan Unit is now rotated for horizontal exhaust operation.

6. Attach the Exhaust Damper Assembly to the back of the unit. See Figure 10. Use two Tapping Screws 4 x 8 mm from the INSTALLATION HARDWARE and tighten into place.

6. Attach the Exhaust Damper Assembly to the fan cover bracket on the top of the outercase cabinet after mounting the oven. To attach the Exhaust Damper Assembly, refer to MOUNTING OVEN TO THE WALL, page 6 Figure 17.

MOUNTING PLATE

1. Separate 4 Toggle Bolts, packed in the INSTALLATION HARDWARE, from the Toggle Nuts.

IMPORTANT

provided to Use wood screws to attach mounting plate to the stud or studs. Use Toggle Bolts to attach mounting plate through the holes UNLESS THOSE HOLES ARE LOCATED ON THE STUD. Insert one Toggle Bolt where appropriate (these correspond to holes of the Wall Template) and put the Toggle Nuts onto the Toggle Bolts. Figure 13. Refer to instructions in Wall Template.

3. Position the Mounting Plate with the Toggle Bolts attached at the wall location and insert Toggle Nuts and Bolts through the holes in the wall with the Toggle Nuts closed. Figure 15. Use Wood Screws to attach the Mounting Plate to studs.

NOTE: Before insertion, be sure you leave a space more

than the thickness of the wall between the Mounting Plate and the end of each of the Toggle Nuts (in the closed position). If you do not leave enough space, the Toggle Nut will not be able to open on the other side of the wall. Also, once a Toggle Nut opens, it cannot be withdrawn from the hole; therefore make sure all of the Toggles are in the correct position before insertion.

4. Align the Mounting Plate carefully and hold in position while tightening Toggle Bolts. Pull Toggle Bolt toward you and turn clockwise to tighten. Figure 14.
