Set Base Pan (1) into the front cabinet
microwave oven cutout and center it right

against cabinet front wall. The V-notch in
the Base Pan front flange can be used to
help center the Base Pan. Bore two 3/32"

supporting structure using the two holes in the Base Pan front
flange as your guide (center the drill in the base holes keeping
the front flange centered and tight against the cabinet front
wall).
Slide the two Rear Holddown Brackets (5) from the rear into
the slots in the Base Pan. The tongues of the Rear Holddown
Brackets should be sticking into the base, be centered in the slot,
and be into the slot as far as it will go. Mark and drill four 3/32"
diameter holes. Mount the Rear Holddown Brackets using four
Screws (B). Both Rear Holddown Bracket tongues should now be
centered in the slotted holes in the base and be into the base as
far as they can go.
Remove the two screws in the Base Pan front flange and slide the
Base Pan straight out.
Step 2
Installation of Base Pan
Disconnect microwave oven from receptacle. Remove everything out of the
microwave oven (packing, glass shelf,
temperature probe, Use & Care books).
Turn the microwave oven upside down.
Remove the four side screws from the
sides of the Microwave Oven cabinet.
Place the Base Pan (1) on the bottom of
the microwave oven and secure it with the
four screws just removed. Turn microwave
oven right side up being careful not to
bend the Base Pan front flange.
