INSTALLATION
UNPACKING
Immediately after unpacking the microwave oven, check for possible shipping damage. If this oven is
found to be damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery.
Removal of Protective Film
A blue protective film is used to prevent scratching of the outer case during transportation. Peel the
film from the exterior of the oven before installation or use.
LOCATION
Locate the oven on a smooth, flat and stable surface. There should be no gap between the counter
surface and the bottom of the oven. Do not place the oven in a hot or damp area, i.e., near a gas or
electric range. The microwave oven must not be located above or next to sources of excessive heat
or greasy air. Free airflow around the oven is important. There is a possibility of a small amount of
interference with weak broadcast signals if the microwave oven is too close to a radio or TV.
It is recommended that the microwave oven be located so the housing can be removed for service. The
housing should NOT be removed by anyone except qualified service personnel. A Hobart service
technician is recommended.

National Sanitation Foundation (NSF).
Locate microwave oven on a level countertop surface. Complete the electrical connections.
Thoroughly clean the base of the microwave oven and the countertop area around the oven.
Remove the air filters.
Apply a bead of silicone sealant around the base of the microwave oven. Smooth sealant with a wet
finger or tool to provide a cove seal. Use a small bead of sealant so the filters can be reinstalled.
Reinstall the air filters after the silicone sealant has been allowed to cure.
