• Do not install the Can Opener over another cook-
ing or heating appliance or behind, under, or in front
of an under-cabinet lighting fixture.
• Unwind the cord and extend it to the nearest
polarized or adapted outlet to be certain it will reach.
• Allow about 5 inches (12.7 cm) to the right and
left side between the Can Opener and any adjacent
wall or appliance .
INSTALLING YOUR CAN OPENER
1. First determine if your cabinet has a flush bottom
or an overhang bottom (see Figures A1 and A2). If
your cabinet has a Flush Bottom—a flat level
surface—skip to the “Mounting Instructions
”
.
2. If your cabinet has an Overhang Bottom—a lip
extending below the bottom of the cabinet front—
measure the overhang with a ruler. You may have
to use a wooden shim (a piece of wood that fits
between the Cabinet and the Bracket) if the lip
extends 2 inches (5.1 cm) or more below the
cabinet bottom.
3. Use the Mounting Bracket as your guide to
locate and drill holes in the shim for the screws to
pass through. At least 1/2” (1.3 cm) of the screw
must be visible once it is dropped through the cabi-
net floor and the shim to provide secure mounting.
You may need screws longer than those provided.
4. If your overhang is less than 2 inches (5.1 cm),
you can avoid using a shim by simply mounting the
Bracket behind the overhang so that the can opener
will be set back slightly from the front edge. See the
mounting instructions below.
MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Empty the bottom of your cabinet and clean the
underside.
2. With the cabinet doors open, hold the Mounting
Bracket up to the underside of the cabinet .(Figure
B) For flush bottom cabinets, it is easiest to mount
the can opener at the front edge of the cabinet; for
cabinets with an overhang less than 2 inches (5.1
cm), set it back behind the overhang.
3. Use the Mounting Bracket and a pencil to mark the
location of the three holes to be drilled on the bottom
of the cabinet. Use a hammer and nail (or center
punch) to tap in starter holes at your pencil marks.
