SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Warning! – To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to
persons, always exercise basic safety precautions, including the
following:
1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2. This product requires a three-prong grounded outlet. The installer must
perform a ground continuity check on the power outlet box before beginning
the installation to insure that the outlet box is properly grounded. If not
properly grounded, or if the outlet box does not meet electrical requirements
noted (under ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS), a qualified electrician should be
employed to correct any deficiencies.
3. For personal safety, remove house fuse or open circuit breaker before
beginning installation to avoid severe or fatal shock injury.
4. For personal safety, the mounting surface must be capable of supporting the
cabinet load, in addition to the added weight of this 63–85 pound (28.5–
38.5 kg) product, plus additional oven loads of up to 50 pounds (22.7 kg)
or a total weight of 113–135 pounds (51.3–61.2 kg).
5. For personal safety, this product cannot be installed in cabinet arrangements
such as an island or a peninsula. It must be mounted to BOTH a top cabinet
AND a wall.
6. For easier installation and personal safety, it is recommended that two people
install this product.
7. For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded to avoid
severe or fatal shock.
8. The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding
plug which mates with a standard three-prong (grounding) wall receptacle
to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from this appliance.
9. You should have the wall receptacle and circuit checked by a qualified
electrician to make sure the receptacle is properly grounded. Where a
standard two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is very important to have
it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle, installed by
a qualified electrician.
10. Do not, under any circumstances, cut, deform or remove any of the prongs
from the power cord. Do not use with an extension cord.
Staple your receipt to your manual.
You will need it to obtain warranty service.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
Product rating is 120 volts AC, 60 Hertz and 1550 watts. This product must be
connected to a supply circuit of the proper voltage and frequency.
Wire size must conform to the requirements of the National Electrical Code or
the prevailing local code for this kilowatt rating. The power supply cord and plug
should be brought to a separate 15 to 20 ampere branch circuit single grounded
outlet. The outlet box should be located in the cabinet above the microwave
oven. The outlet box and supply circuit should be installed by a qualified
electrician and conform to the National Electrical Code or the prevailing local
code.

HOOD EXHAUST
NOTE: Read these next two pages only if you plan to vent your exhaust to the
outside. If you plan to recirculate the air back into the room, proceed to page 7.
OUTSIDE TOP EXHAUST (EXAMPLE ONLY)
The following chart describes an example of one possible ductwork installation.
OUTSIDE BACK EXHAUST (EXAMPLE ONLY)
The following chart describes an example of one possible ductwork installation.
* IMPORTANT: If a rectangular-to-round transition adaptor is used, the bottom
corners of the damper will have to be cut to fit, using the tin snips, in order
to allow free movement of the damper.
NOTE: For back exhaust, care should be taken to align exhaust with space
between studs, or wall should be prepared at the time it is constructed by
leaving enough space between the wall studs to accommodate exhaust.

NOTE: If you need to install ducts, note that the total duct length of 31⁄4” x 10” (8.2
x 25.4 cm) rectangular or 6” (15.2 cm) diameter round duct should not exceed 120
equivalent feet (36.5 m).
Outside ventilation requires a HOOD EXHAUST DUCT. Read the following carefully. NOTE:
It is important that venting be installed using the most direct route and with as few elbows as
possible. This ensures clear venting of exhaust and helps prevent blockages. Also, make sure
dampers swing freely and nothing is blocking the ducts.

EXHAUST CONNECTION:
The hood exhaust has been designed to
mate with a standard 31⁄4” x 10” (8.2 x
25.4 cm) rectangular duct. If a round duct
is required, a rectangular-to-round transition
adaptor must be used. Do not use less than a
6” (15.2 cm) diameter duct.
MAXIMUM DUCT LENGTH:
For satisfactory air movement, the total
duct length of 31⁄4” x 10” (8.2 x 25.4 cm
rectangular or 6” (15.2 cm) diameter round
duct should not exceed 120 equivalent feet
(36.5 m).
ELBOWS, TRANSITIONS, WALL
AND ROOF CAPS, etc.,
present additional resistance to airflow and
are equivalent to a section of straight duct
which is longer than their actual physical
size. When calculating the total duct length,
add the equivalent lengths of all transitions
and adaptors plus the length of all straight
duct sections. The chart below shows you how
to calculate total equivalent ductwork length
using the approximate feet of equivalent
length of some typical ducts.
* IMPORTANT: If a rectangular-to-round transition adaptor is used, the bottom corners of the damper
will have to be cut to fit, using the tin snips, in order to allow free movement of the damper.
NOTE: For back exhaust, care should be taken to align exhaust with space between studs, or wall
should be prepared at the time it is constructed by leaving enough space between the wall studs to
accommodate exhaust.

1. PLACEMENT OF THE MOUNTING PLATE
A. REMOVING THE MICROWAVE OVEN FROM THE CARTON/
REMOVING THE MOUNTING PLATE
B. FINDING THE WALL STUDS
1. Remove the installation instructions, filters,
glass tray and the small hardware bag. Do
not remove the Styrofoam protecting the
front of the oven.
2. Fold back all 4 carton flaps fully against
carton sides. Then carefully roll the oven
and carton over onto the top side. The oven
should be resting in the Styrofoam.
3. Pull the carton up and off the oven.
4. Remove and properly discard plastic bags.
5. Remove the screws from the mounting
plate. This plate will be used as the rear
wall template and for mounting. Reinstall
the screws into the holes where they were
removed.
1. Find the studs, using one of the following
methods:
A. Stud finder – a magnetic device which
locates nails.
OR
B. Use a hammer to tap lightly across the
mounting surface to find a solid sound.
This will indicate a stud location.
2. After locating the stud(s), find the center by
probing the wall with a small nail to find the
edges of the stud. Then place a mark
halfway between the edges. The center of
any adjacent studs should be 16” (40.6 cm)
or 24” (61 cm) from this mark.
3. Draw a line down the center of the studs.
THE MICROWAVE MUST BE CONNECTED TO
AT LEAST ONE WALL STUD.

Your cabinets may have decorative trim that interferes with the microwave installation.
Remove the decorative trim to install the microwave properly and to make it level.
THE MICROWAVE MUST BE LEVEL. Use a level to make sure the cabinet bottom is level.
If the cabinets have a front overhang only, with no back or side frame, install the
mounting plate down the same distance as the front overhang depth. This will keep
the microwave level.
Measure the inside depth of the 1. front overhang.
Draw a horizontal line on the back wall an equal distance below the cabinet 2.
bottom as the inside depth of the front overhang.
For this type of installation with front overhang only, align the mounting tabs with 3.
this horizontal line, not touching the cabinet bottom as described in Step D.
CAUTION:
Wear gloves to avoid cutting fingers on sharp edges.

English
D. ALIGNING THE WALL PLATE
Draw a vertical line on the wall at the center of the 30” (76.2 cm) wide space.1.
Use the mounting plate 2. as the template for the rear wall. Place the mounting
plate on the wall, making sure that the tabs are touching the bottom of the
cabinet or the level line drawn in Step C for cabinets with front overhang.
Line up the notch and centerline on the bottom of the mounting plate to the
centerline on the wall.
While holding the mounting plate with one hand, draw circles on the wall 3.
at holes A, B, C and D (see illustration above/actual plate marked with
arrows). Four holes must be used for mounting.
NOTE: If neither C nor D is in a stud, find a stud somewhere in area E and
draw a fifth circle to line up with the stud. It is important to use at least one
wood screw mounted firmly in a stud to support the weight of the microwave.
Set the mounting plate aside.
Drill holes on the circles. If there is a stud, drill a 3⁄16” hole for wood screws. 4.
For holes that don’t line up with a stud, drill a 5⁄8” hole for toggle bolts.
NOTE: DO NOT MOUNT THE PLATE AT THIS TIME.
