Location Requirements
The microwave oven may be installed over a built-in oven. If installing
over a built-in oven, make sure there is a minimum of 3” (7.6 cm)
between the top of the lower oven cutout and the microwave oven
cutout oor.
The microwave oven may also be installed in a cabinet by itself
(without a built-in oven below). For best usability, we recommend a
minimum distance of 36” (91.4 cm) from the oor to the cutout oor.
Make sure the surrounding cabinetry has clearance to open and
close freely. Allow a clearance of at least 1 9/16“ (4.0cm) below the
cutout oor (3” [7.6 cm] for installation above a built-in oven), and a
clearance of at least 2” (5.1 cm) above the cutout opening.
