For Best Installation
The oven can be difficult for two people to handle during
installation. It is recommended to have three or more
people available to assist with lifting the unit into place.
Removal of the oven door during installation (to provide
the necessary handholds and to significantly reduce the
unit weight) can be cumbersome unless the detailed
door removal instructions are followed carefully. Please
take time to read and follow the instructions provided for
an improved installation experience.
Removing the Oven Door
Note: Only bottom hinge doors can be removed. Do not
remove side hinge or steam convection oven doors.
9CAUTION
WHEN REMOVING THE OVEN DOOR:
▯The oven door is heavy and fragile. Use both
hands to remove the oven door. The door front
includes glass components. Handle carefully to
avoid breaking.
▯Grasp only the sides of the oven door. Do not
grasp the handle as it may swing in your hand
and cause damage or injury.
▯Failure to grasp the oven door firmly and properly
could result in personal injury or product damage.
▯To avoid injury from hinge bracket snapping
closed, be sure that both locking levers are
securely in place before removing the door. Also,
do not force the oven door open or closed - the

Remove Lower Oven Door Prior to Installation
Note: Do not remove microwave, speed oven, side
hinge or steam convection oven doors.
It is recommended to remove the traditional (lower) oven
door to help reduce the unit weight and provide easier
access to the latch levers located inside the oven.
Note: Be sure to read all warnings and cautions in the
installation manual regarding the door removal before
attempting to remove the door.
1. Open the door completely to its fully open, horizontal
position.
2. Flip latch levers on hinges all the way down toward
you.
Note: It may be necessary to use a tool, such as a
screwdriver, to gently pry the upper part of the lever
away from the housing. Take care to avoid scratching
the housing.
3. Close the oven door until it catches on the hinge stop
levers, locking the hinges at the proper angle for door
removal. The door will be open about 7 inches at the
top. This takes the spring tension off the hinges so the
door can be easily lifted out.
4. Carefully lift the door up and out of the hinge slots.
Hold firmly; the door is heavy. Use both hands to firmly
grip it by the sides. Do not grip the door by the handle.
Maintaining the door angle, lift the door straight up
approximately 3/4” to unhook the hinges from the
slots and then pull it out towards you until the hinges
are clear of the oven housing.
5. Place the door in a convenient and stable location until
you are ready to reinstall it. Lay the door on a towel or
section of protective foam padding to avoid damage to
the door or the floor.
Correctly Lifting the Combination Oven

Placing the Oven into the Cabinet Opening
9CAUTION
▯To avoid potential damage to flooring keep the
unit on its base packaging until immediately
before placing the unit directly into the cabinet
opening. Do not allow the metal base of the unit
to contact the flooring. See the following handling
instructions for details.
▯To avoid damage to the door (and/or warming
drawer front for combo units) do not lift, pull or
push the unit during installation by using the oven
door handle or warming drawer handle as a
gripping point.
▯Wear gloves and long sleeves to protect hands
and forearms from abrasion and potential
scratches during the lifting process. Take off
watches and jewelry and wear work shoes during
installation for foot protection.
When lifting the unit into place avoid grasping the upper
element to avoid damaging it. See the following
illustration for the correct lifting point.
1. The unit and its bottom packaging (pallet) should be
positioned close to and in front of the cabinet opening
prior to beginning to lift the unit into place.
2. Lift or slide unit into the cabinet cutout without allowing
the unit base to contact the flooring.
3. Guide the unit straight back into the cabinet cutout.
Push the unit straight in until the oven trim is about
2 inches from being flush with cabinet wall. Be careful
not to crimp the flexible conduit between the oven and
the cabinet back wall. If necessary, guide the flexible
conduit into the wall or cabinet access hole so it
doesn’t prevent the unit from being pushed all the way
into the cabinet opening. The oven should be straight
and level, not crooked.
4. Push the unit all the way back into the cabinet cutout
until the front edge of the unit is flush with the front of
the cabinet.
5. Install the supplied screws through the tap holes in the
trim (2 screws for single ovens, 4 screws for double/
combo ovens). It is recommended to drill pilot holes
for the trim screws.
To ensure the door and oven function properly, the
screws should be installed on the face of the side trim
for traditional bottom hinge doors and on the side of
the side trim for side hinge doors.
6. Replace the oven door(s) according to the following
instructions.

13
Reinstalling Oven Doors with Bottom
Hinge
To replace the oven door:
1. Holding the door firmly in both hands, grip it on either
side. Do not grip by the handle.
2. Tilt the door back slightly towards you until it opens
about 7” at the top.
3. Slide the hinges into the slots as far as they will go and
then lower the door straight down. The angle of the
door may need to be adjusted slightly to allow the
hinges to engage properly and the door to lower into
place. The door should lower about 3/4” and stop. If
not, the hinges have not engaged properly and the
door could fall if it is released.
4. Lower the door into the fully open 90° position. If the
door will not lower all the way to the 90° position, the
hinges are not correctly seated. The door should be
straight, not crooked.
5. Push the levers on both the hinges up and forward
until they are locked into the slot, flush with the front of
the oven body.
6. Close the door gently. It should close all the way.
Gently open and close the door several times to be
sure it is correctly installed and securely in place.
Aligning Side Hinge Oven Doors
Note: Only align the side hinge oven doors after the unit
is fully installed into the cabinet.
Tip: The gap between the top of the closed oven door
and the control panel (or upper door for lower cavities in
double ovens) should be uniform from side to side.
To align side hinge door:
1. Check to see if the side hinge oven doors are properly
aligned.
The door should pull itself closed smoothly when the
striker engages the roller as the door is closed.
2. Fig. A-Door is too low if hinge side is above level. A
bump will be felt when the striker comes in to contact
with the realignment roller.
3. Fig. B-Door is too high if latch side is above level.
Interference will be felt between the striker and the
catch receiver. Door needs to move down on latch
side.

Side Hinge Door Alignment Procedure
1. Open the door to approximately 135°.
2. Using a Torx T20 screwdriver, loosen the three screws
(A) on the lower hinge by 1 to 2 full turns.
Note: All adjustments are made with the lower hinge
only. The upper hinge is fixed in place and cannot be
adjusted.
3. Using a #2 Phillips screwdriver, turn the cam screw
(B) right or left to adjust the hinge position in the
desired direction.
Note: 1mm of hinge movement (left or right) will move
the door up or down approximately 1.5mm at the door
catch.
4. Re-tighten the screws before closing the door to test.
Be careful not to overtighten.
5. Check for proper door alignment. Repeat adjustment
procedure as necessary.

Cabinet Requirements
Cabinet materials must be able to withstand the high
heat associated with the use of an oven. It is the owner’s
responsibility to review the suitability of cabinet materials
prior to installation and use of the oven.
Under oven dimensions are provided as a general
guideline and may be adjusted as needed based on a
particular application. Consult a design professional for
optimizing personal preferences.
Cabinet requirements vary depending on the model to be
installed. Please consult the “Appliance and Cabinet
Cutout Dimensions” chapter for the details pertaining to
your particular model.
All models require:
▯¼” (6.4 mm) space between the side of the oven and
an adjacent wall or cabinet door when installed at the
end of a cabinet run.
▯A 2” diameter hole is required to run conduit to the
junction box.
▯The junction box must be installed according to the
locations specified and can be found in the individual
dimension installation instructions found.
▯The cabinet base must be flat and capable of
supporting the weight of your oven when in use (varies
by model up to 429 lbs. (195 kg). See the appropriate
weight for your model in the NOTICES area at the
beginning of each individual model section.
▯Ensure that a recommended 1/4” (6 mm) minimum
clearance gap is maintained on either side of the oven
door with that of adjacent cabinetry, cabinet doors,
walls, etc. to avoid incidental contact with the oven
door throughout its entire range of motion.
▯Ensure that the cabinet floor structure properly
supports the full weight of the oven from underneath. It
is recommended that (2) 2x4 runners spanning front
to back of the cabinet be installed and be adequately
supported within the cabinet. The runners should be
spaced apart to the full width of the oven such that
they support the left and right edges of the oven base.
Note: When installing a side hinge oven, leave a
minimum 10” (254 mm) clearance to allow the door to
open.
Door Handle Depth
Note: Protrusion of handle from outer part of door. Does
not include thickness of door.
