minimum clearance. Locate electrical outlet in the shaded
area in the upper left-hand corner of the cutout. See Figure 7.

• Contact surface must be solid and level. Pay special attention

to the floor on which the Microwave Drawer will sit. The
floor of the opening should be constructed of plywood
strong enough to support the weight of the oven (about 100
pounds).

24" MICROWAVE DRAWER MEASUREMENTS

• Check location where the Microwave Drawer will be

installed for proper electrical supply.

• Your oven can be built into a cabinet or wall by itself or
under a gas or electric wall oven.

• Be sure that the clearance of the floor between the wall oven

and the microwave drawer is a minimum of 2-inches.

• The microwave interior will easily accommodate a 9" x 13"
oblong dish or a bag of microwave popcorn.
