The cardboard piece from the top of the microwave oven packaging is perforated. The piece inside the perforation is for use as a rear wall template.

1. Cut along the perforation to separate the template from the rest of the cardboard packaging.

2. Set the cardboard template to the side and refer to it during the "Mark Rear Wall" part of installation.

Location Requirements

Check the opening where the microwave oven will be installed. The location must provide:

• Minimum installation dimensions. See "Installation Dimensions" illustration.

Minimum one 2" x 4" (50.8 x 101.6 mm) wood wall stud and minimum 3/8" (10 mm) thickness drywall or plaster/lath within

cabinet opening. Support for weight of 150 Ibs (68 kg), which includes

microwave oven and items placed inside the microwave oven and upper cabinet.

Grounded electrical outlet inside upper cabinet. See "Electrical Requirements" section.

NOTES:

• If installing the microwave oven near a left sidewall, make sure there is at least 6" (15.2 cm) of clearance between the wall and

the microwave oven, so that the door can open fully. Some cabinet and building materials are not designed to

withstand the heat produced by the microwave oven for cooking. Check with your builder or cabinet supplier to make

sure that the materials used will not discolor, delaminate or sustain other damages.

on model, charcoal filters may not be included. See

User Instructions.)

Special Requirements

For Wall Venting Installation Only:

• Cutout must be free of any obstructions so that the vent fits properly, and the damper blade opens freely and fully.

For Roof Venting Installation Only:

• If you are using a rectangular to round transition piece, the 3" (7.6 cm) clearance needs to exist above the microwave oven so that the damper blade can open freely and fully. See "Rectangular to Round Transition" illustration in "Venting

Design Specifications" section.

GROUNDING iNSTRUCTiONS

[] For all cord connected appliances:

The microwave oven must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric

current. The microwave oven is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug

must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

WARNING: Improper use of the grounding plug can

result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are

not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the microwave oven is properly grounded.

Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or serviceman install

an outlet near the microwave oven.

INSTALLATIONINSTRUCTIONS

Remove Mounting P ate

Depending on your model, the mounting plate may be in the foam packaging, or it may be attached to the back of the microwave

oven. NOTE: To avoid possible damage to the work surface, cover the

work surface.

1. Remove any remaining contents from the microwave oven cavity.

2. If the mounting plate is attached to the back of the microwave oven, remove it and set it aside.

3. Tape the microwave oven door closed so that door does not swing open while the microwave oven is being handled.

NOTE: To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not grip or use the door or door handle while the microwave oven is being

handled.

Rotate B ower Motor

The microwave oven is set for recirculation installation. For wall or roof venting, changes must be made to the venting system.

NOTE: Skip this section if you are using recirculation installation. Keep the damper assembly in case the venting method is

changed, or the microwave oven is reinstalled in another location where wall or roof venting may be used.

4. Lift blower motor out of microwave oven.

MGrR ReG

The microwave oven must be installed on a minimum of 1 wall stud, preferably 2, using a minimum of 1 lag screw, preferably 2.

1. Using measuring tape, find and clearly mark the vertical centerline of the opening.

A ......................JJ/I o1_

5. With the support tabs facing forward (see illustrations in "Locate Wall Stud(s)" section), align the mounting plate center

markers to the centerline on the wall, making sure its bottom edge is aligned to the horizontal line drawn in Step 3, and that the end holes are properly marked. Make sure the mounting

plate is level.

6. Holding the mounting plate in place, find the wall stud centerline(s) drawn in Step 2 of "Locate Wall Stud(s)," and mark at least 1, preferably 2 hole(s) through the mounting plate, closest to the wall stud centerline(s). See figures 1, 2

and/or 3 in "Possible Wall Stud Configurations" in "Locate Wall Stud(s)" section. The blackened holes in the shaded

areas are ideal hole locations.

7. Set the mounting plate aside.

2. Align the center markers on the cardboard template (carton top cap) to the centerline on the wall, making sure it is level, and that the top of the cardboard template is butted up

against the bottom edge of the upper cabinet.

NOTES:

• If the front edge of the upper cabinet is lower than the back edge, lower the cardboard template so that its top is level with

the front edge of the cabinet.

• If the cardboard template is damaged or unusable, measure and mark the wall with the dimensions described in Step 4.

In addition to being installed on at least 1 wall stud, the mounting plate must attach to the wall at both end holes. If the end holes are not over wall studs, use two 1/4-20 x 3" round-head bolts with

toggle nuts; if 1 end hole is over a wall stud, use 1 lag screw and one 1/4-20 x 3" round-head bolt with toggle nut; or if both end holes are over wall studs, use 2 lag screws. Following are 3 installation configurations.

P e÷ e Upp® Cabinet

Disconnect power to outlet.

Remove all contents from upper cabinet.

Place Upper Cabinet Template against the bottom of the upper cabinet, and attach with tape or thumbtacks. Make sure the template centerline aligns with the vertical centerline on

the rear wall. The "rear wall" arrows must be against the rear wall so that the

holes cut into the upper cabinet align with the holes in the top of the microwave oven.

NOTES:

• If the upper cabinet has a frame around it, trim the template edges so that it fits inside the frame, against the upper cabinet bottom. The template has trim lines to use as guides.

If the wall behind the microwave oven (as installed) has a partial wall covering (for example, tile backsplash), be sure the "Rear Wall" arrows align to the thickest part of the rear wall (for example, the thickness of the tiles rather than the drywall).

Make sure the 10" (25.4 cm) dimension from the rear wall to points "D" and "E" on the template is maintained.
