Installation Instructions
IMPORTANT SAFETY 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.
AWARNING:
Risk of Electric Shock.
Can cause injury or death:
Remove house fuse or
open circuit breaker before
beginning installation to avoid
severe or fatal shock injury.
AWARN ING: risk of Electric shock.
Can cause injury or death: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
PROPERLY GROUNDED to avoid severe or fatal shock.
120 V Models
Ensure proper
ground exists
before use
240 V Models
NEMA 14—30R
Wall Receptacle
Ensure 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.
The wall outlet receptacle
recommended for this
application is NEMA #14-
30R and accepts the four-
prong grounded plug of
this appliance.
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is
encountered, it must be replaced with a properly
grounded three-prong wall receptacle, installed by a
qualified electrician.
AWARN ING: risk of Electric Shock.
Can cause injury or death: DO NOT, under any
circumstances, cut, deform or remove any of the prongs
fromm the power cord. Do not use with an extension cord.
Failure to comply may cause fire.
ACA UTION: 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 product, plus additional oven loads of up
to 50 pounds or a total weight of 113-135 pounds.
ACAUTION: 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.
ACAUTION: To avoid the risk of personal
injury (back injury or other injuries due to excessive
weight of the microwave oven) or property damage, you
will need two people to install this microwave oven.

Installation Instructions
NOTE: If you need to install ducts, note that the total duct
length of 3%” x 10” rectangular or 6” diameter round duct
should not exceed 140 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 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 hood exhaust has been designed to mate with
a standard 3%" 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
3%" x 10” rectangular or 6” diameter round cuct should
not exceed 140 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 ductwork length using
the approximate feet of equivalent length
of some typical ducts.

Carton 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 stucd(s}, find the center by probing
Styrofoam 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.
Pull the carton up and off the oven. 3 Draw a line down the center of the studs.
The mounting plate is attached to the back of the IMPORTANT: The microwave oven must be connected to

Your cabinets may have decorative trim that interferes
with the oven installation. Remove the decorative trim
to install the oven properly and to make it level.
THE OVEN 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 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 only,
align the mounting tabs with this horizontal line, not
touching the cabinet bottorn as described in Step D.
