UNPACKING AND EXAMINING

YOUR OVEN

Open the bottom of the carton, bend the carton flaps back and
tilt the oven over to rest on plastic foam pad. Lift carton off oven

and remove all packing materials, WALL and TOP CABINET
TEMPLATE, Turntable, and Turntable Support. SAVE THE
CARTON AS IT MAY MAKE INSTALLATION EASIER.

1.Remove the feature sticker from the outside of the door, if
there is one.

2. DO NOT REMOVE THE WAVEGUIDE COVER, which is
located on the right side wall of the oven cavity. Check to

see that there is a Wall TEMPLATE and Top CABINET
Template. Read enclosures and SAVE the Operation

Manual.

Check the oven for any damage, such as misaligned or bent
door, damaged door seals and sealing surfaces, broken or

loose door hinges and Iatches and dents inside the cavity or on
the door. If there is any damage, do not operate the oven and
contact your dealer or ELECTROLUX AUTHORIZED SER-

VICER. See installation instructions for more details.

Proper installation is the responsibility of the instailer.
Product failure due to improper installation is not cov-

ered under the Warranty.

Please read atI 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 qualified electrician before

the Microwave Oven is installed. See 3 ELECTRICAL
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS on page 2.

1 MOUNTING SPACE

This Microwave Oven/Hood requires a mounting space on a
wall as shown in Figure 1. It is designed to be used with stan-

dard 12-inch wail cabinets.

If the space between the wall cabinets is 36 or 42 inches, a
Filler Panel Kit can be used to fill the gap. The meta! filler pan-
els come in 3-inch wide pairs. One set is needed for a 36-inch
opening and 2 sets for a 42-inch opening. The Filler Panel Kit

should be installed before the Microwave Oven/Hood is
installed.

2 WALL CONSTRUCTION

This Microwave Oven/Hood should be mounted against and
supported by a flat vertical wall. The wall must be flat for prop-

er installation. If the wall is not flat, use spacers to fill in the
gaps. Wall construction should be a minimum of 2" x 4" wood
studding and 3/8" or more thick dry wall or piaster/lath. The
mounting surfaces must be capable of supporting a weight of

110 poundslthe oven and contents--AND the weight of all
items which would normally be stored in the top cabinet above

the unit.
The unit shoumd be attached to a minimum of one 2" x 4"

wall stud or two 2" x 3"' wall studs.
To find 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.

The center of the stud can be !ocated by probing the wall with a
small nail to find 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 GROUNDmNG

This appliance must be grounded. This oven is equipped with a
cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. It must be
plugged into a wail receptacle that is properly installed and

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,

The oven is equipped with a 3-prong - _;_

ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CUT OR G,o_0diogp,_
grounding plug. DO NOT UNDER /...-r_

REMOVE THE GROUNDING PiN 3-ProngReceptacle /
FROM THE PLUG, Roc_p_loBo*

The Power Supply Cord and plug must be connected to a sep-
arate 120 Volt AC, 60 Hz, 15 Amp, or more branch circuit, sin-
gle 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 qualified electrician or serviceperson.

2.Neither ElectroIux nor the dealer can accept any liability for
damage to the oven or personal iniury resulting from failure to

observe the correct electrical connection procedures.

RADIO OR TV _NTERFERENOE
Should there be any interference caused by the microwave

oven to your radio or TV, check that the microwave oven is on
a different electrical circuit, relocate the radio or TV as far away
from the oven as feasible or check position and signal of receiv-
ing antenna.

4 HOOD EXHAUST DUCT

When the hood is vented to the outside, a hood exhaust duct is
required. AII ductwork must be metaI; absolutely do not use

pIastic duct. Check that all connections are made securely.
Please read the foilowing carefully:

Exhaust sonneetiom The hood exhaust has been designed to
connect to a standard 3-1/4" X 10" rectangular duct. If round
duct is required, a rectanguIar-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 waII should be prepared at the time it is constructed by
leaving enough space between wall studs to accommodate
exhaust.

Maximum duet length: For satisfactory air movement, the total
duct length of 3-1/4" X 10" rectangular or 6" diameter round duct

should not exceed 140 feet.
Elbows, adapters, walI caps, roof caps, etc. present additional

resistance to air flow and are equivalent to a section of straight
duct which is Ionger than their actual physical size. When caIcu-

lating the total length, add the equivalent lengths of all transi-
tions 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 flow resistance equivalent, which should totaI

less than 140 feet.
