IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
Before attempting the installation of this kit, be sure to unplug the ovenfrom wall receptacle.
Your oven is designedtobe installedunder properlyconstructed,good condition woodor metal cabinetsthat are sturdy enoughtosupport
the items you have in the cabinet, plusan additional 41 kg (90 pounds) from the cabinet bottom.
Emptythe contents of your selected cabinet andthe delicate items in adjoining cabinets.
(NOTE: When drilling the holes, the vibration couldcause damage tofragile itemssuch as crystal or china.)
Now, you must inspectyour cabinets.If any of the following conditions exist, then it is your personal responsibilitytotest the cabinets or
contact a qualified cabinet maker.
1. Separation ofjoints betweenthe bottom shelf and the cabinet structure.
2. Splitting, cracking or other signs of deterioration.
3. Check the number of screws used to install your cabinets. If yourcabinet is attached to the wall with only two screws at the top, then
you mustadd two screwsatthe bottom tofirmly secureyourcabinetto the wall. When addingthe screws,be sure thatthey enter wall
studs with at least 1.3 cm (1/2")penetration.
4. On wood cabinets, the bottom shelf must be at least .48 cm (3/16") thick masoniteor plywood.
5. Be sure that the undersideof the cabinet is at least50 cm (20") wide and 35.0cm (13 25/32") deep. If the cabinet is less than
35.0cm(13 25/32") deep, followthe cabinet mounting instructions catefully ifyou desire to mount your oven under cabinet.
Totest your cabinets, place a 40 KG(90LB.)load, plusthe equivalent weight of items normally stored on the shelf*,for a minimumof five
minutes.
*You may consider usingjugs ofwater, bricks or books to obtainthe test load.
PLEASE NOTE: Ifyour cabinet is properly constructedand suitably installeditwillwithstand thistestwithout any damage; however, there
is the possibility of damage should the cabinet be incapable of supportingthe additional load.

TWO MOUNTING METHODS
There are two mounting methodsdescribed in this booklet that can be used.
1. Countertop Method
Youcan use this method if you decide not to cabinet mount your oven.
Touse your ovenas a countertop model, simply position the oven on the desired counter and plug the electrical cord into a three
prong (grounded)wall receptacle.
2. Cabinet Mounting Method
This method isfor mountingyouroven under a cabinetand usesthetemplate, 4-washers andone set ofscrews. Beforeusingthis method,
the4 plastic plug buttons on the top of the oven must be removed. This can be done by placing a thinflat blade screwdriver between the
plug button and the oven top and raising gently, taking care to avoid acratching the oven top.
OVEN MAY BE MOUNTED TO CABINETS WITH OR WITHOUTA FRONT RAIL.

DRILLING APPROACH
You have two options for drilling the mounting holes for your oven.
First,you can drill from inside of the cabinet if you have adequate space and your shelves are removable.
Second, you can drill from the bottom.
If possible, it is generally easierto work from the inside of the cabinet. Use the instructions applicable to the approachyou select. Make
sure you use the template properly depending whether you drill holes from the inside or bottom side of the cabinet.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR DRILLING FROM INSIDE
Ifyou cannot drill from the inside, go to Instructions for Drilling From Bottom.
1. If your cabinet is less than 35cm(13 25/32") deep,cut off the front edge of Template2 the amount bywhich the cabinet depth is less
than 35cm(13 25/32"), usingthe template cut lines as a fuide. Place Template2insidecabinet. Cut arounddoor jam and if necessary,
corners to make template fit.(The front edge oftemplate must be even with thefront edge of the cabinet.) Place Template 2 in
cabinet.
NOTE: For cabinets with a recessed shelf you must measure thethickness of the front rail and cut that amount off the front edge of
Template 2 using the template cut lines as a guide. Thiswill allow Template 2 to lay flat in the shelf.
2. If you havea partition in the cabinet, you must do the following:
• Cut Template 2 into two pieces to fit each side of the partition.
• Position one piece of Template 2 inside the cabinet making sure that the front edge is even with the front edge of cabinet.
• PostonTempatel on front of the cab net so that the arrow sa gnedwththehoecenter ne on Temp ate 2.
• Position remaining piece of Template 2 inside cabinet and align the hole center lines with arrows on Template 1 so that
distance from right hole center to left hole center measures tSe distance indicated on the template. (You will have to cut
excess paper from the middle of Template 2 to make it lay fiat.)
• Position the remaining piece of Template 2 inside cabinet.
• Check again to make sure that the hole center lines on Template 2 are straight and that the distance from the right to left
drilling holes measures the distance indicated on the template.
• Go to Drilling the Mounting Holes.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR DRILLING FROM BOTTOM
1, if you havea front rail, measure the thicknessand cut that amount off the front edge ofTemplate2 using the template cut lines as a
guide.
2, Place cut edge of Template2 against the back side of the front rail and position it flat against the bottom side of the cabinet.
NOTE: On some cabinets a small bracketor glue block is used between the overhang andthe underside of the cabinet bottom. If this is
true of your cabinets, cut Template 2 to fit around the bracket or glue block sothat it will be flat on the cabinet bottom when attached.
3. If you havea partition you must do thefollowing:
• Cut Template 2 into two pieces to fit on each side of the partition.
• Position one piece of Template 2 under the cabinet. (The cut line along the front edge of Template 2 must be placed
against the back of the front rail.)
• Attach Template 1 to rear of cabinet and align arrows with hole center line on Template 2.

• Position remaining piece of Template 2 under the cabinet and align the hole center lines with arrows on Template 1 so
that the distance from right hole center to left hole center measures the distance indicated on the templates. (You may
have to cut excess paper from middle of the template to make it lay flat.)
• Position Template 2. (The cut line along the front edge of template must be placed against the back of the front rail.)

DRILLING THE MOUNTING HOLES
While drilling, it is recommended that safety glasses be worn to prevent possible eye damage from cabinet shavings.
1, Use a center punchor nail to make an indentation for centering the drill bit.
2, Drill through Template2 at the four black drilling holes indicated on the template. (Drill should be held straight to ensure proper
alignment of bolts.)
3, After drilling the four holes, removethe template and clean the drill holes.
SELECTING YOUR MOUNTING BOLTS
1,Youshould have three sets of bolts of varying lengths in the installation package, select one bolt of each size.
2, Holdeach bolt against the cabinetfront rail.pickthe bolt that extends beyond top ofthe bottom shelf by.48 cm (3/6") to 2.54 cm (1").
this will be the bolt length neededfor your cabinets.

NOTE: It is importantto pick the correct bolt length needed for your cabinets. If the bolt is too short it won't reach the oven. If the bolt is
too long, it will not permit oven to be drawn up to the cabinet snugly.
3, Frominside the cabinet, insert the bolts through the mounting straps andthen into the drilled holes.
MOUNTING THE OVEN
Toaid installation,we suggestthat you usesome solidsupport such as books tohold the oven while you are securing it with the mounting
bolts.
Make sure that whatever you use is stacked or cut as close as possible to the height neededfor the oven to reach the cabinet bottom.
1, Place the oven on the support and move into position. Liftoven, aligning the mounting holes onthe oven with the bolts. Do not grip
the door handle to help lift the oven.
2, Insertbolts into mountingholes onthe oven. Tighten the bolts to secureoven tothe bottomof the cabinet.(Alternate between boltsso
that oven is drawn up evenly.)
3, Once oven is securely in place, plug power cord intothree prong (grounded) wall receptacle.
