• If the dimension of DEPTH (C) is more than 21" (533.4
mm), 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/45 kg). The oor
should be level and 90˚ with the face of the cabinet for
proper installation and 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.
