Installation Requirements
Caution
To avoid personal injury, mounting
surface must be capable of supporting
microwave oven (65 lbs.) and oven loads
(up to 50 lbs.) for a total weight of 115 lbs.
Caution
To avoid personal injury, do not install
microwave oven in island or peninsula.
This microwave oven must be mounted to
both top cabinet and wall.
Caution
To avoid electrical shock hazard remove
house fuse or open circuit breaker before
installing microwave oven.
Mounting Space
This over-the-range microwave oven requires wall
mounting space, as shown below.
Minimum of 30 inches between cabinets is required for
installation. If space between cabinets is greater
than 30 inches, filler panel kit may be used to fill in gap
between microwave oven and cabinets. Contact
dealer to purchase filler panel kit.
Caution
To avoid personal injury, protect hands and
arms. Microwave oven may have sharp
edges.
Verify bottom edge of cabinet is at least 66 inches from
floor and 30 inches from cooking surface.
Bottom of microwave oven should be at least 2 inches
above range backsplash for easy access to change
hood and range lamps.
For outside ventilation, see "Preparing Microwave
Exhaust Duct" section.
Charcoal filter kit is needed for recirculating exhaust
installation. Contact dealer to purchase charcoal filter
kit.
When installing microwave oven beneath smooth,
flat cabinets, follow instructions on top cabinet template
for power cord clearance.
Cabinets may have trim that interferes with microwave
oven installation. Remove interfering trim to allow
microwave oven installation and leveling.
Space must be 30 inches wide. Remove any cabinet
side trim that interferes with 30 inch space, front or
back.
Top cabinet trim (front, back, or both) can be left in
place if there is enough clearance for proper
installation. If top front trim is left in place, and there is
no back trim, verify that mounting plate is positioned
down far enough to keep microwave oven level. Keep
space between bottom of cabinet and mounting plate
equal to height of top front trim. This will ensure that
microwave oven is level.
Caution
To reduce risk of fire, use only metal duct.
