Before you start...

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.

This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word “DANGER” or “WARNING”. These words mean:

DANGER

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t immediately follow instructions.

WARNING

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

Important: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

Proper installation is your responsibility. Have a qualified technician install this oven.

Oven location should be away from strong draft areas, such as windows, doors and strong heating vents.

Cabinet opening dimensions that are shown must be used. Given dimensions provide minimum clearance.

Recessed installation area must provide complete enclosure around the recessed portion of the oven.

Electrical ground is required. See “Electrical requirements.”

Electrical supply junction box should be located 3 inches maximum below the support surface when oven is installed in a wall cabinet. Drill a 1-inch minimum diameter hole in the right rear or left rear corner of the support surface to pass the appliance cable through to the junction box. For undercounter installation, it is recommended that the junction box be located in the adjacent right or left cabinet. If installing the junction box on rear wall behind oven, junction box must be recessed and located in the upper or lower right or left corner of cabinet.

Oven support surface MUST be solid, level and flush with bottom of cabinet cutout.
