If you are using fl'ont fl'amed cabinets with inset
doors, these ovens can be installed flush with the
fi'ont. In this installation the oven is completely

recessed into the cabinet.

This is achieved by installing cleats, set back 15/16"
fl'om the front frame. The cleats will hold the oven

mounting screws. The cabinet must be wide enough
to allow 26-7/8" opening. Whenever possible, order

the cabinets with the cutout sized to fit the oven.
Provide this information to the cabinet manufacturer
in advance.

Determine
need for

filler panels

If the cabinets being used have an opening that is
taller than the maximum dimensions indicated for

the ovens, filler panels can be made to fill the gaps.

Stock filler strips are usually available or for larger
gaps order an extra drawer front. Drawer fronts are
recommended because they will match the cabinetry
and have finished edges. Any cut edges will be seen

and should be finished.

Frameless cabinets usually come with a fi'ont panel
covering the opening. For the optimum finished look,
this panel can be removed and used to construct filler
panels.

The oven SUl)port floor and SUl)poi'ts should be

installed at the required locations.

If there is a gap between the oven SUl)port flooi" and
the bottom of the opening, a bottom filler panel
should be constructed to fill the gap.

Measure fi'om the oven SUl)port floor to the top of the

opening. If the opening height is larger than the
maximum cutout height, a filler panel should be
constructed to fill the gap.

Filler panel
construction

We suggest that the filler panel be constructed using

4 pieces:

• Appearance panel to match doors and drawers.

• A rail which will be covered by the oven overlaps
and conceal any slight gap between the top or
bottom of the oven and the start of the filler panel.

The face of the rail should be made of finished
matching material; the cut edges and ends do not

need to be finished.

• Cleats which will be used to secure the filler panel
and rail to the cabinet. One for each side.

Cut the rail out of finished material:

• The width should match cabinet opening width.

• The height of the top rail should be enough to

• The height of the bottom rail should be enough to
securely attach the rail to the appearance panel,
plus 7/8" oven trim overlap.

• The height of both the top and bottom rails should
be adjusted depending upon the height of the gap
to be filled or to enhance appearance.

Use drawer fl'onts for appearance panels or cut
finished material and finish raw edges.

• The appearance panel width should match drawer
fronts or doors.

• Make the appearance panel al)l)ropriate height to

Monogram built-in single and double ovens require
a separate, properly grounded 3-wire 120/208 or 120/
240 volt, 60 Hz power supply, protected by a time
delay fuse or circuit breaker. Ovens are supplied with a

flexible power cable, which must be attached to a

junction box. The cable length is 48" for both single

and double conventional ovens. The cable length for
convection type ovens is 54".

Double ovens are rated 6.8 KW at 240 volt, and 5.1 KW
at 208 volt.
