marked H on the wall template.
• If wall studs cannot be located, consult a local
building contractor.

do not attempt to install microwave oven if wall studs

template.
• Verify minimum width is 30" and the distance from
the top of wall template to the range or countertop
is at least 30".
4. Secure wall template to the wall.
• If cabinets are not level, adjust the wall template
to align with cabinet.

area. Align the centerline of the upper cabinet
template with the centerline on the wall template.
