INSTALLATIONREQUIREMENTS
Product Dimensions
Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation.
Read and follow the instructions provided with any tools listed
here.
Tools needed
• Philips screwdriver •
• Measuring tape
• Level •
Hand or electric drill (for wall
cabinet installtions)
1" (25 mm) drill bit (for wall
cabinet installations)
Parts needed
• A UL listed or CSA approved conduit connector
• UL listed wire connectors
Parts supplied
• 2 screws
Check local codes. Check existing electrical supply. See
"Electrical Requirements."
It is recommended that all electrical connections be made by a
licensed, qualified electrical installer.
IMPORTANT"Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
• Cabinet opening dimensions that are shown must be used.
Given dimensions provide minimum clearance with
microwave oven.
• Recessed installation area must provide complete enclosure
around the recessed portion of the microwave oven.
• Grounded electrical supply is required. See "Electrical
Requirements" section.
Electrical supply junction box should be located 3" (7.6 cm)
maximum below the support surface when the microwave
oven is installed in a wall cabinet. A 1" (2.5 cm) minimum
diameter hole should have been drilled in the right rear or left
rear corner of the support surface to pass the appliance cable
through to the junction box.
NOTE: For undercounter installation, it is recommended that
the junction box be located in the adjacent right or left
cabinet. If you are installing the junction box on rear wall
behind the microwave oven, the junction box must be
recessed and located in the upper or lower right or left corner
of the cabinet; otherwise, the microwave oven will not fit into
the cabinet opening.
• Microwave oven support surface must be solid, level and
flush with bottom of cabinet cutout. Floor must be able to
support a weight of 110 Ibs (50.0 kg).

Electrical Connection
To properly install your microwave oven, you must determine the
type of electrical connection you will be using and follow the
instructions provided for it here.
• Microwave oven must be connected to the proper electrical
voltage and frequency as specified on the model/serial
number rating plate. The model/serial number rating plate is
located on the right-hand microwave oven frame.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
For a permanently connected microwave oven:
The microwave oven must be connected to a grounded,
metallic, permanent wiring system, or an equipment
grounding conductor should be run with the circuit
conductors and connected to the equipment grounding
terminal or lead on the microwave oven.
SAVE THESE iNSTRUCTiONS
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that
the ground path and wire gauge are in accordance with local
codes.
Check with a qualified electrical installer if you are not sure the
microwave oven is properly grounded.
This microwave oven must be connected to a grounded metal,
permanent wiring system.
Be sure that the electrical connection and wire size are adequate
and in conformance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/
NFPA 70-latest edition or CSA Standards C22.1-94, Canadian
Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No. O-M91-1atest edition, and
all local codes and ordinances.
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:
National Fire Protection Association
One Batterymarch Park
Quincy, MA 02269
CSA International
8501 East Pleasant Valley Road
Cleveland, OH 44131-5575
When a 4-wire or 3-wire, single phase 120/208 or 120/240
volt, 60 Hz, AC only electrical supply is available, a 20-amp
maximum circuit protection is required, fused on both sides
of the line.
A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended.
Connect directly to the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker
box) through flexible, nonmetallic sheathed, copper cable
(with grounding wire). See "Make Electrical Connection"
section.
Flexible cable from the microwave oven should be connected
directly to the junction box.
Do not cut the conduit. The length of conduit provided is for
serviceability of the microwave oven.
A UL listed or CSA approved conduit connector must be
provided.
If the house has aluminum wiring follow the procedure below:
1. Connect a section of solid copper wire to the pigtail
leads.
2. Connect the aluminum wiring to the added section of
copper wire using special connectors and/or tools
designed and UL listed for joining copper to aluminum.
Follow the electrical connector manufacturer's recommended
procedure. Aluminum/copper connection must conform with
local codes and industry accepted wiring practices.
INSTALLATIONINSTRUCTIONS
Locate existing wiring to avoid drilling into or severing wiring
during installation.
5. Route the flexible cable conduit from the microwave oven to
the junction box through a UL listed or CSA approved conduit
connector.
6. Tighten screws on conduit connector.
7. See "Electrical Connection Options Chart" to complete
installation for your type of electrical connection.
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install
microwave oven.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
2. To avoid floor damage, set the microwave oven onto
cardboard prior to installation. Do not use handle or any
portion of the front frame for lifting.
3. Remove the shipping materials and tape from the microwave
oven.
4. Remove and set aside racks and other items from inside the
microwave oven.
5. Remove the hardware package from inside the bag
containing literature.
6. Move the microwave oven and cardboard close to the
microwave oven's final location,
