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, damage around the door or
dents inside the oven or on the exterior. If there is
any damage, please do not operate the unit until
it has been checked by an authorized Whirlpool
service technician and any repairs made.

ings on the rear of the oven. Blocking vent or air
intake openings can cause damage to the
oven and poor cooking results. Make sure the
microwave oven legs are in place to ensure
proper air flow.
5. Read and follow the ELECTRICAL REQUIRE-
MENTS and GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS before
plugging in and operating the microwave
oven.
