NOTES
• If the dimension of DEPTH (C) is more than 21", the outlet
location may be any area on the rear wall.
• The oor of the opening should be constructed of plywood
strong enough to support the weight of the oven and
oor load (about 100 pounds). The oor should be level
for proper operation of the oven. Be sure to check the
local building code as it may require that the opening be
enclosed with sides, ceiling and rear partition. The proper
functioning of the oven does not require the enclosure.
