Installation Instructions
Before you begin operating the oven, carefully read the following instructions.
Installing your microwave oven
1. Empty
the microwave oven and
clean
inside it with a soft, damp cloth.
Check
for
damage such as misaligned door, dam-
age around the door, or dents inside the
oven or on the exterior. If there is any
damage, do not operate the unit until it
has been checked by an authorized
Whirlpoor service technician and any
repairs made.
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 slde of the unit is the
heavy side. Use care when handling.)
The weight of the oven is approximately
58 Ibs (26.10 kg). The microwave oven
should be at a temperature above 50°F
(10°C) for proper operation.

Fire, Electrical Shock, Excessive Expo-
sure To Microwave Energy, Personal
Injury and Product Damage Hazard
l
Do not block the exhaust vents or rear
air intake openings. Allow a few inches
of space at back of oven where intake
openings are located. Blocking the air
intake openings and exhaust vents can
cause damage to the oven and poor
cooking results. Make sure the micro-
wave oven legs are in place to ensure
proper airflow.
l
Do not install the oven next to or over a
heat source (for example,
a
cooktop or
range) without a UL approved trim kit or
without being in a UL approved built-in
configuration. Also, do not install oven
in any area where excessive heat and
steam are generated. This could cause
a fire, electrical shock, excessive
exposure to microwave energy, other
personal injury or damage to the
outside of the cabinet.
Built-in kits
You can build your microwave-convection
oven into a wall or cabinet by using one of
the trim kits listed on page 15.
These kits are available from your Whirlpool
Dealer. If your dealer does not stock the kii,
it can be ordered, by kit part number, by
