on the power
outlet
box before
beginning
the
installation
to insure
that the outlet
box is properly
grounded.
If not properly
grounded,
or if the outlet
box does
not meet electrical
requirements
noted
(under
ELECTRICAL
REQUIREMENTS),
a qualified
electrician
should
be employed
to correct
any
deficiencies.
CAUTION:
For personal
safety,
remove
house
fuse
or
open
circuit
breaker
before
beginning
installation
to
avoid
severe
or fatal
shock
injury.
CAUTION:
For personal
safety,
the
mounting
surface
must
be capable
of supporting
the
cabinet
load, in addition
to the added
weight
of
this 59 pound
product,
plus additional
oven loads
of up to 50 pounds
or a total weight
of 109
pounds.
CAUTION:
For personal
safety,
this product
cannot
be installed
in cabinet
arrangements
such
as an island ora
peninsula.
It must be mounted
to
BOTH
a top cabinet
AND
a wall.
NOTE:
For easier
installation
and personal
safety,
it is recommended
that two
people
install
this
product.
IMPORTANT-PLEASE
READ
CAREFULLY.
FOR
PERSONAL
SAFETY,
THIS APPLIANCE
MUST
BE
PROPERLY
GROUNDED
TO AVOID
SEVERE
OR
FATAL
SHOCK.
Insure proper
ground exists
before use
The
power
cord of this
appliance
is equipped
with
a three-prong
(grounding)
plug which
mates
with a standard
three-prong
(grounding)
wall
receptacle
to
minimize
the possibility
of electric
shock
hazard
from
this appliance.
You should
have
the wall
receptacle
and circuit
checked
by a qualified
electrician
to make sure
the receptacle
is properly
grounded.
Where
a standard
two-prong
wall receptacle
is
encountered,
it is very
important
to have
it
replaced
with a properly
grounded
three-prong
wall
receptacle,
installed
by a qualified
electrician.
DO NOT,
UNDER
ANY
CIRCUMSTANCES,
CUT,
DEFORM
OR REMOVE
ANY OF THE
PRONGS
FROM
THE
POWER
CORD.
DO NOT USE WITH
AN EXTENSION
CORD.

NOTE:
For back exhaust,
care should
be taken
to align exhaust
with space
between
studs,
or wall should
be
prepared
at the time
it is constructed
by leaving
enough
space
between
the wall studs
to accommodate
exhaust.
If you need to install ducts,
note that the total
duct length
of 3¼" x 10" rectangular
or 6" diameter
round
duct should
not exceed
60 equivalent
feet.
Outside
ventilation
requires
a HOOD
EXHAUST
DUCT.
Read the following
carefully.
NOTE:
It is important
that venting
be installed
using
the most
direct
route
and with as few elbows
as
)ossible.
This ensures
clear
venting
of exhaust
and
helps prevent
blockages.
Also,
make
sure
dampers
swing
freely
and
nothing
is blocking
the
ducts.
Exhaust
connection:
The
hood exhaust
has been designed
to mate with a
standard
3¼"x
10" rectangular
duct.
If a round
duct is required,
a rectangular-to-round
transition
adaptor
must
be used.
Do not
use
less
than
a 6" diameter
duct.
Maximum
duct length"
For satisfactory
air movement,
the total duct length
of
3¼" x 10" rectangular
or 6" diameter
round
duct
should
not exceed
60 equivalent
feet.
Elbows,
transitions,
wall and roof
caps,
etc.,
present
additional
resistance
to
airflow
and are equivalent
to a section
of straight
duct
which
is longer
than their
actual
physical
size.
When
calculating
the total duct
length,
add the equivalent
lengths
of all transitions
and adaptors
plus the length
of all straight
duct sections.
The chart below
shows
you how to calculate
total equivalent

using the approximate

1. Find the studs,
using
one of the following
methods:
A. Stud finder-a
magnetic
device
which
locates
nails.
OR
B. Use a hammer
to tap lightly
across
the
mounting
surface
to find a solid sound.
This
will indicate
a stud location.
2. After
locating
the stud(s),
find the center
by
probing
the wall with a small
nail to find the edges
of the stud. Then
place
a mark halfway
between
the edges.
The center
of any adjacent
studs
should
be 16" or 24" from this mark.
3.
Draw a line down the center
of the studs.
THE MICROWAVE

Your cabinets
may have decorative
trim that
interferes
with the microwave
installation.
Remove
the decorative
trim to install
the microwave
properly
and to make
it level.
THE
MICROWAVE
MUST
BE LEVEL.
Use a level to make
sure the cabinet
bottom
is level.
If the cabinets
have
a front
overhang
only, with no
back
or side frame,
install the
mounting
plate
down
the same
distance
as the front
overhang
depth.
This
will keep the microwave
level.
1. Measure
the inside
depth
of the front overhang.
2.
Draw a horizontal
line on the back wall an equal
distance
below
the cabinet
bottom
as the inside
depth
of the front
overhang.

For this type of installation
with front overhang
