Installation Instructions
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This product requires a three-prong grounded outlet.
The installer" must perform a ground continuity check
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 63-85 pound
(28.5-38.5 kg) product, plus additional oven loads of
up to 50 pounds (22.7 kg) or a total weight of
113-135 pounds (51.3-61.2 kg).
CAUTION: For personal safety, this product cannot
be installed in cabinet arrangements such as an island or
a 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.
Ensureproper
groundexists
beforeuse
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.
ELECTRICAL
REQUIREMENTS
Product rating is 120 volts AC, 60 Hertz, 15 amps and
1.6 kilowatts. This product must be connected to a
supply circuit of the proper voltage and frequency.
Wire size must conform to the requirements of the
National Electrical Code or the prevailing local
code for this kilowatt rating. The power supply
cord and plug should be brought to a separate
15- to 20- ampere branch circuit single grounded
outlet. The outlet box should be located in the
cabinet above the microwave oven. The outlet box
and supply circtfit should be installed by a qualified
electrician and conform to the National Electrical
Code or the prevailing local code.

[] Fold back all 4 carton flaps fully against carton
sides. Then carefully roll the oven and carton over
onto the top side. The oven should be resting in
the Styrofoam.

[]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.
_}_ 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" (40.6 cm) or 24" (61 cm) from this mark.
[]Draw a line down the center of the studs.
THE MICROWAVE MUST BE CONNECTED TO
AT LEAST ONE WALL STUD.

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.
[_ Measure the inside depth of the front overhang.
[_ Draw a horizontal line on the back wall an equal
distance below the cabinet bottom as the inside

I-2-1 INSTALLATION TYPES
This microwave oven is designed for adaptation to
the following three types of ventilation:
A. Outside Top Exhaust (Vertical Duct)
B.Outside Back Exhaust (Horizontal Duct)
C. Recirculating (Non-Vented Ductless)
(Choose A, B or C)
NOTE: This microwave is shipped assembled for
Recirculating. Select the type of ventilation required
for your installation and proceed to that section.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR EXTERNAL EXHAUST DUCTING
NOTE: If you need to install ducts, note that the total
duct length of 31/4" x 10" (8.2 x 25.4 cm) rectangular or
5" (10.5 cm) diameter/ 6" (15.2 cm) diameter round duct
should not exceed 120 equivalent feet (36.5 m).
Outside ventilation requires a EXTERNAL 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 possible.
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 exhaust adaptor has been designed to mate with
a standard 31/4" x 10" (8.2 x 25.4 cm) rectangular duct.
If a round duct is required, a rectangular-to-round
transition adaptor must be used.
A 5"(10.5cm)/6" (15.2cm) diameter duct is acceptable to use
Maximum duct length:
For" satisfactory air" movement, the total duct length of
31/4"x 10" (8.2 x 25.4 cm) rectangular or 5" (10.5 cm)
diameter/6 "(15.2 cm) diameter round duct should not
exceedl20 equivalent feet (36.5 m).
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 ductwork length using the approximate feet
of equivalent length of some typical ducts.
