Parts supplied

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.

Location Requirements

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 installations, it is recommended that

the junction box be located in the adjacent right or left

cabinet. If you are installing the junction box on the 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.

■ For installation above single built-in oven the junction box

must be located inside upper 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 lbs (50.0 kg).

IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to your cabinets, check with your

builder or cabinet supplier to make sure that the materials used

will not discolor, delaminate or sustain other damage. This oven

has been designed in accordance with the requirements of UL

and CSA International and complies with the maximum allowable

wood cabinet temperatures of 194°F (90°C).

Electrical Requirements

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-latest 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

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.

■ When a 4-wire, single phase 208/220 volt, 60 Hz, AC only

electrical supply is required, 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.

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.
