Installation instructions
iMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS
This product requires a three-prong grounded
out|et. The installer must perform a ground continuity
check on the power outlet box before beginning the
installation to instue that the out|et 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.
i_1/[ CAUTION: For personal
safety, remove house fuse
i or open circuit breaker
before beginning installation
to avoid severe or fatal
shock injury.
w
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
product, plus additional oven loads of up to 50 pounds
or atotal weight of 113-135 pounds.
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.
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.
Insure proper
ground exists
before use
You should have the wall receptacle and circuit checked
by a qualified electridan to make sure the receptade 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 radng is 120 volts AC, 60 Hertz, 15 amps, and
1.70 ldlowatts. This product IllUSt be connected to
a supply circuit of the proper voltage and fiequenc>
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. The
outlet box and supply circuit should be installed by
a qualified electrician and confbrm to the National
Electrical Code or the prevailing local code.

If you plan to redrculate the air back into the room, proceed to page 6.

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 HOOD EXHAUST DUCT.
Read the fbllowing careflflly:
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 blocMng 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 safisfhctory 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 equNa/ent lengths of all transitions and
adaptors plus the length of all straight duct sections.
The chart below shows you how to calculate total
equiwdent ducta, vork length using the approximate feet
of equivalent length of some typical ducts.

THE CARTON/REMOVING THE
MOUNTING PLATE
[] Open top of box and remove Styrofoam pack
containing installation instructions, filters, exhaust
adaptor, damper, and the small hardware bag.
[]Locate cut line at the bottom of the box and
carefully cut along the indicated dotted line.
Then pull the carton up and off the unit.
[]Remove the the front
St'_7I'O f}jaill protecting
of the oven. Open the oven door and remove
any contents f}om inside.
[_ Using a portion of the carton or other material
to protect the outer casing flom damage, stand
the oven on its side so the control panel is nearest
to the ground.
]The mounting plate is attached to the back
of the oven. Remove the two screws holding
the plate to the oven. The plate will serve
as the rear wall template and provide the support
to mount the oven to the wall.
]Once the plate has been removed, set the oven
upright. Remove and properly discard the plastic
bags and Styrofbam.
[_ Check that all adhesive has been

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 halfk,vW
between the edges. The center of any adjacent
studs should be 16" or 24 " f]om this mark.
[_ Draw line down the center of the studs.

Your cabinets may have decorative trim that interferes
with the oven installation. Remove the decorative trhn
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 fiame, install the mounting plate down
the same distance as the front overhang depth. This
will

keep the oven level.
Measme the inside depth of the flont overhang.
Draw a horizontal line on the back wall an equal
distance below the cabinet bottom as the inside
depth of the fiont overhang.
For this t),pe of installation with fiont overhang only;
align the mounting robs with this horizontal line, not
touching the cabinet bottom as described in Step D.

[]Draw a vertical line on the wall at the center of die
30" wide space.
[_] Use the mounting plato as the template for the rear
wall. Place the mounting plato on the wall, maMng
sure that the robs are touching the bottom of the
cabinet or the level line drawn in Step C for cabinets
with front overhang. Line up the notch and center line
on the mounting plate to the center line on the wall.
[] While holding the mounting plate with one hand,
draw circles on the wall at holes A, B, C and D (see
illustration above/actual plate marked with arrows).
Four holes must be used for mounting.
NOTE: Holes C and D are inside area E. If neither
C nor D is in a stud, find a stud somewhere in area E
and draw a fifth circle to line up with the stud. It is
important to use at least one wood screw mounted
firmly in a stud to support the weight of the oven.
Set the mounting plate aside.
Drill holes on the circles. If there is a stud, drill a NJ'
hole for wood screws. For holes that don't line up with
a stud, drill a %" hole for toggle bolts.
NOTE: DO NOT MOUNT THE PLATE AT THIS TIME.
