WARNING — This trim kit uses air flow

from the top, bottom and sides of the trim frame. Blocking the air flow can cause the microwave to function improperly and may cause damage to the microwave.

Allow a 1″ clearance beyond the edge of the trim frame to provide proper air flow.

On 27″ models, allow 11⁄8″ at the top, 11⁄16″ on the sides and 11⁄4″ at the bottom for overlap of the Trim Frame over the edges of the cutout.

On 30″ models, allow 11⁄8″ at the top, 21⁄16″ on the sides and 11⁄4″ at the bottom for overlap of the Trim Frame over the edges of the cutout.

FOR INSTALLATION ABOVE A BUILT-IN OVEN:

Microwave oven should be installed on a 3/8″ plywood base and supported by 2x4 or 1x2 equivalent runners on all sides. Base must be capable of supporting a minimum of 100 lbs (45.3 kg).

Draw a line on the cutout floor at the center of the cutout, and extend the line 1/2″ down the face of the cabinet.

Draw a line on the top front face of the cabinet at the center of the cutout. The line should extend 1/2″ up the face of the cabinet. This center line will be used for mounting the top bracket (see step 7).

Fold or cut the front edge of the template, along the front guide line. Place the template flush along the front edge of the cutout floor, aligning the center line of the template with the center line of the cutout floor. Mark the center positions with an awl or center punch for the anti-tip brace location as shown.

Drill two holes for the anti-tip brace.

Install the anti-tip brace onto the cutout floor using two round-head screws.

Installation Instructions

Set the microwave upright, being careful not to bend the front flange. Remove the one existing screw from the left side of the microwave oven.

As indicated on the supplied template (publication #31-41003-1), fold or cut along the “cut lines” and place the template on top of the microwave oven. By aligning the template with the outside edges of the oven, you will see exactly where to place the upper duct assembly. Peel off the backing from the double-sided tape. Carefully position the side duct and upper duct assembly on the microwave cabinet, aligning with the bottom screw hole. Press down firmly on the ducts. Fasten the duct assembly to the left side of the cabinet with the screw removed above.
