Installation Instructions
Before you begin operating the oven, carefully read the following instructions.
1. Empty the microwave oven and clean
inside it with a soft, damp cloth. Check
for damage such as a door that isn’t lined
up correctly, damage around the door, or
dents inside the oven or on the exterior.
If there is any damage, do not operate the
oven until an authorized Whirlpool service
technician has checked it and made any
needed repairs.
2. Put the oven on a cart, counter, table,
or shelf that is strong enough to hold the
oven and the food and utensils you put
in it. (The control side of the unit is
the heavy side. Use care when han-
dling the oven.) The weight of the oven
is about 40 lbs (18kg). The microwave
oven should be at a temperature above
50°F (10°C) for proper operation.
NOTE: You can fasten your microwave
oven under a cabinet by using the proper
trim kit. See “Microwave oven features” in
the “Getting to Know” section.

Fire Hazard
Do not install the oven next to or
over a heat source without a UL or
CSA approved trim kit.
Doing so can result in death, fire,
or electrical shock.
Power
supply
cord
Exhaust vents
(on bottom in front)
Air intake
openings
NOTE: Do not block the exhaust vents or
rear air intake openings. Allow a few inches
of space at the back of the oven where the
intake openings are located. Blocking the air
intake openings and exhaust vents could
cause damage to the oven and poor cooking
results. Make sure the microwave oven legs
are in place to ensure proper airflow. If vents
are blocked, a sensitive thermal safety
device automatically turns the oven off. The
oven will not work until it has cooled enough.
wWARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions
can result in death, fire, or
electrical shock.
Electrical requirements
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
A 120 Volt, 60 Hz, AC only, 15 amp fused
electrical supply is required. (A time-delay
fuse is recommended.) It is recommended
that a separate circuit serving only this
appliance be provided.
