CAREFULLY. * iMPORTANT - Save these instructions for local

inspector's use.

* IMPORTANT - Observe all governing codes and

ordinances.

* Note to installer - Be sure to leave these instructions

with the Consumer.

* Note to Consumer - Keep these instructions for future

reference,

* Skill level - Installation of this appliance requires basic

mechanical and electrical skills.

* Proper installation is the responsibility of the installer.

Product failure due to improper installation is not covered under the Warranty.

I SA ETYI

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.

CAUTION: For personal safety, remove house fuse or

open circuit breaker before

beginning instalJation to

avoid severe or fatal shock injury.

IMPORTANT=PLEASE READ CAREFULLY. FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST BEPROPERLY GROUNDED

TO AVOID SEVERE OR FATAL SHOCK.

The power cord of this

appliance is equipped with a three=prong (grounding)

pJugwhich mates with

a standard three-prong

(grounding) wall receptacle

to minimize the possibility of

ground exists

before use

electric shock hazard from this appJiance.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

Product rating is 120 volts AC, 60 Hertz,

" 85042, 85043, 85044, 85046, 85049, 85|43:13.5 arnps

and 1.5 kilowatts.

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 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.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION: For personal safety, the mounting surface must be capable of supporting the cabinet load, in addition to the

added weight of this 59 pound product, plus additional oven loads of up to 50 pounds or a total weight of 109 pounds.

CAUTION: 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 waft.

NOTE: For easier installation and personal safety, it is

recommendedthat two peopJeinstalJthisproduct.

You should have the wall receptacle and circuit checked

by a qualified electrician to make sure the receptacJe is

properJy grounded.

Where a standard two=prong wall receptacle isencountered, it is very important to have it repJaced with a properJy

grounded three=prong waft receptacJe, instalJed by a qualified eJectrician.

DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT, DEFORM OR REMOVE ANY OF THE PRONGS FROM THE POWER CORD. DO NOT USE WiTH AN EXTENSION CORD.

NOTE: For back exhaust t care should be taken to align exhaust with space between studs t 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/_" x 10" rectangular or 6" diameter round duct

should not exceed 140 equivalent feet.

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/_" x 10" rectangular duct.

If a round duct is required, a rectangular-to-round transition adaptor must be used. Do not use less than a 6" diameter

duct.

MAXIMUM DUCT LENGTH:

For satisfactory air movement, the total duct length of 31/_''

x 10" rectangular or 6" diameter round duct should not exceed 140 equivalent feet.

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.

i STALLATIONS

PLACEMENTOF THE MOUNTING

PLATE

Removing the microwave oven from the

carton!removina the mounting plate

1. Remove the installation instructions, Exhaust adaptor, 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.

Carton

Find the studs, using one of the following methods:

_i Stud finder-amagnetic _e;ice Which locate;

Styrofoam

Pull the carton up and off the oven.

Remove and properly discard plastic bags.

5. Remove the 2 screws from the mounting plate. This plate will be used as the rear wall template and for mounting.

NOTE: You will have to reuse two screws in original Ioction

of outcase after removing mounting plate.

_i!! ind!cate a stud

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" or 24" from

this mark.

3. Draw a line down the center of the studs. THE MICROWAVE MUST BE CONNECTED TO AT LEAST

ONE WALL STUD.

Determining wall plate location under your cabinet

Plate position - beneath fiat bottom cabinet

1/2"

Draw a vertical line on the wall at the center of the 30"

wide space. Tape the Rear Walt Template onto the wall matching the

centerline and touching the bottom of the cabinet.

Plate position - beneath recessed bottom cabinet with

front overhang

Plate position - beneath framed recessed cabinet bottom

30" to Cooktop

Draw a vertical line on the wall at the center of the

30" space. Tape the Rear Wall Template onto the wall

matching the centertine and touching the bottom

cabinet frame.

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.

Draw a line on the back wall equal to the depth of the front overhang•

30" to Cooktop 3.

THE MICROWAVE MUST BE LEVEL.

Use a level to make sure the cabinet bottom is level. If the cabinets have a front overhang onlyt with no back

or side frame t install the mounting plate down the same distance as the front overhang depth. This will keep the

microwave level.

1. Measure the inside depth of the front overhang.

2. Draw a horizontal line on the back wall an equal distance below the cabinet bottom as the inside depth

of the front overhang.

For this type of installation with front overhang only,

align the mounting tabs with this horizontal line, not touching the cabinet bottom as described in Step D.

CAUTION: Wear gloves to avoid cutting fingers on sharp edges.

1. Draw a Vertical line on the wall at the center of the 30" wide space.

2. Draw a Horizontal line on the wall along the bottom of "Rear Wall Template".

3. Drill 5/8" holes for toggle bolts on 3 locations (Hole A, Hole B, Hole C) but if the location of hole is same as that of stud, drill a 3/16" hole for wood screw. In other words, toggle bolt can not be used at the location of stud.

NOTE: DO NOT MOUNT THE PLATE AT THiS TIME.

NOTE: Holes A, B and C are inside area E.If none of A, B and C is in a stud, find a stud somewhere in area E and draw a forth 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.

Draw a Horizontal line on wall from bottom of "Rear Wall Template".
