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 ELECTRICALREQUIREMENTS),a qualified electrician
should be employed to correct any deficiencies.
AWARNING:
Riskof Electric Shock.
Can cause injury or death:
Remove house fuse or
open circuit breaker before
beginning installation to avoid
severe or fatal shock injury.
_VV/'_|_ l |_: Riskof Electric Shock.

The power cord of this
appliance isequipped 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.
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:RiskofElectricShock.
Can cause injury or death: DO NOT,under any
circumstances, cut, deform or remove any of the prongs
from the power cord. Do not usewith an extension cord.
Failure to comply may cause fire.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
120 V Models
This product requires a three-prong grounded outlet.
Product rating is !20 volts AC, 60 Hertz, 15 amps,
and !.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 oven and away
from any potential microwave oven 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.

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.

Installation Instructions
NOTE: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 140 equivalent feet.
Outside ventilation requires a HOODEXHAUSTDUCT.
Reed the following carefully.
NOTE:It is important that venting be installed using
the most direct route end with as few elbows as possible.
This ensures clear venting of exhaust end 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 3½" 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 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.

between the oven and the cabinets. Your Owner's
Manual contains the kit number for your model.
This oven is for installation over ranges up to
36" wide.
, If you are going to vent your oven to the outside,
see Hood Exhaust Section for exhaust duct
preparation.
, When installing the oven beneath smooth, flat
cabinets, be careful to follow the instructions
on the top cabinet template for power cord
clearance.
. Maximum cabinet depth above and beside the unit
is 13".
, Formodels with top venting holes: Do not allow
cabinetry or other objects to block the airflow of the
vent.

[_ FINDING THE WALL STUDS
Cente_
Wall
Studs
[_ Findthe 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" or 24"
from this mark.
[_ Draw a line down the center of the studs.
IMPORTANT: The microwave oven must be connected to
at least one wall stud.
