Installation Instructions

A qualified electrician must perform a ground continuity
check on the wall receptacle before beginning the
installation to ensure that the outlet box is properly
grounded. If not properly grounded, or if the wall
receptacle does not meet electrical requirements noted
(under ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS), a qualified electrician
should be employed to correct any deficiencies.

120 V Models
This product requires a three-prong grounded outlet.
Product rating is 120 volts AC, 60 Hertz, 15 amps, and 1.70
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 and away from any potential
microwave ducting. The outlet box and supply circuit
should be installed by a qualified electrician and conform
to the National Electrical Code or the prevailing local code.

Outside ventilation requires a HOODEXHAUST 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. $OVRPDNHVXUHGDPSHUVVZLQJIUHHO\DQG

Exhaust connection:
The hood exhaust has been designed to mate with
a standard 31ø4sx 10srectangular duct.
If a round duct is required, a rectangular-to-round
transition adaptor must be used. Do not use less than
a 6sdiameter duct.

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

Installation Instructions
Find the studs, using one of the following methods:
A. Stud finder. 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 16sor 24s
from this mark.
Draw a line down the center of the studs.
IMPORTANT: The microwave must be connected to at
least one wall stud.

Open the box and fold back all four carton flaps fully
against the carton sides. Remove the following items
from the protective foam: installation instructions,
filters, exhaust adaptor, damper, and the small
hardware bag. Do not remove the foam protecting
the front of the microwave oven.
Then carefully roll the microwave oven and carton
over onto the top side. The microwave oven should
be resting in the foam.

C
Your cabinets may have decorative trim that interferes
with the microwave oven installation. You may need to
remove the decorative trim to install the microwave oven
properly and to make it level.
THE MICROWAVE OVEN MUST BE LEVEL.
Use a level to make sure the cabinet bottom is level.
If the cabinets have a front overhang, install the
mounting plate down the same distance as the front
overhang depth. This will keep the microwave oven 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 depth
of the front overhang.
For this type of installation with front overhang,
align the mounting tabs with this horizontal line, not
touching the cabinet bottom as described in Step D.
