IMPORTANT: SAVE FOR LOCAL ELECTRICAL INSPECTOR'S USE.

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

FOR YOUR SAFETY: Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in

the vicinity of this or any other appliance. Your new wall oven has been designed to fit a limited variety of cutout sizes to make the job of installing

easier. The first step of your installation should be to measure your current cutout dimensions and compare them to the cutout dimensions chart below for your model. You may find little or no cabinet work being necessary.

Do not remove spacers (if equipped) on the side walls and/or on the back of the built-in

oven. These spacers center the oven in the space provided. The oven must be centered to prevent excess heat buildup that may result in heat damage or fire.

NOTES:

1. Base must be capable of supporting 150 pounds (68 kg) for 27" models and

200 pounds (90 kg) for 30" models.

2. Allow at least 21" (53.3 cm) clearance in front of oven for door

depth when it is open.

3. Dimension G (cutout depth) is critical to

the proper installation of the built-in oven. If the oven decorative trim does not butt against the cabinet, or if noise is heard on convection models, verify

dimension G to assure it is the required depth.

4. For a cutout height greater than 2713/16" (70.6 cm) add one 2"

(5 cm) wide wood shim of appropriate height to each side
