! WARNING
SHOCK HAZARD — Electrical Grounding Required. Never attempt to repair or perform maintenance on the unit until the electricity has been disconnected.
Never remove the round grounding prong from the plug and never use a two-prong grounding adapter.
Altering, cutting or removing power cord, removing power plug, or direct wiring can cause serious injury, fire, loss of property and/or life, and will void the warranty.
Never use an extension cord to connect power to the unit.
Always keep your working area dry.
NOTICE

The unit requires a grounded and polarized 115 VAC,
60 Hz, 15A power supply (normal household current). An individual, properly grounded branch circuit or circuit breaker is recommended. A GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) is usually not required for fixed location appliances and is not recommended for your unit because it could be prone to nuisance tripping.

INSTALLATION |
LEVELING INFORMATION |
1. Plug in the power/electrical cord. |
|
1. Use a level to confirm the unit is level. Level should be placed along top edge and side edge as shown.

2.If the unit is not level, adjust the legs on the corners of the unit as necessary.
Turn to Adjust
3.Confirm the unit is level after each adjustment and repeat the previous steps until the unit is level.
INSTALLATION TIP
If the room floor is higher than the floor in the cutout opening, adjust the rear legs to achieve a total unit rear height of 1/8" (3 mm) less than the opening’s rear height. Shorten the unit height in the front by adjusting the front legs. This allows the unit to be gently tipped into the opening. Readjust the front legs to level the unit after it is correctly positioned in the opening.
2.Gently push the unit into position. Be careful not to entangle the cord.
3.Re-check the leveling, from front to back and side to side. Make any necessary adjustments. The unit’s top surface should be approximately 1/8" (3 mm) below the countertop.
4.Remove the interior packing material and wipe out the inside of the unit with a clean, water-dampened cloth.

The door panel must not weigh more than 20 lbs (10 kg).
It is important to ensure that all drilled holes are drilled to the correct depth in order to avoid splits in the wood when hardware is installed.
When applying an integrated panel to a unit, ensure that both sides are finished in order to prevent warping. In some frame installations, the panel may be visible through the glass while the door is open.
A full integrated door panel completely covers the door frame and provides a built-in appearance.
