Location Requirements
The microwave oven may be installed over a built-in oven. If
installing over a built-in oven, make sure there is a minimum of 3"
(7.6 cm) between the top of the lower oven cutout and the
microwave oven cutout floor.
The microwave oven may also be installed in a cabinet by itself
(without a built-in oven below). For best usability, we recommend
a minimum distance of 36" (91.4 cm) from the floor to the cutout
floor.
Make sure the surrounding cabinetry has clearance to open and
close freely. Allow a clearance of at least 1⁹⁄₁₆" (4.0 cm) below the
cutout floor (3" [7.6 cm] for installation above a built-in oven), and
a clearance of at least 2" (5.1 cm) above the cutout opening.

Electrical Requirements
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
Required:
■ A 120 volt, 60 Hz, AC only, 15- or 20-amp electrical supply
with a fuse or circuit breaker.
Recommended:
■ A time-delay fuse or time-delay circuit breaker.
■ A separate circuit serving only this microwave oven.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
■
For all cord connected appliances:
The microwave oven must be grounded. In the event of
an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of
electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric
current. The microwave oven is equipped with a cord
having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug
must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed
and grounded.
WARNING: Improper use of the grounding plug can
result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified
electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are
not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether
the microwave oven is properly grounded.
Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is
too short, have a qualified electrician or serviceman install
an outlet near the microwave oven.

1. Unplug microwave oven before proceeding with installation.
2. Remove any loose items inside microwave oven.
3. Gently turn microwave oven onto its top, with the door facing
