Planning the Installation
Cabinet Cutout (Continued)
Support Platform
WARNING
The top surface of the support platform must be installed
flush with the cutout in the front of the cabinet or wall
and any trim. Failure to install the platform properly
may cause the exhaust vent to deform and/or become
obstructed. An obstructed exhaust area may cause the
oven to malfunction. See below.
Provide a platform within the cabinet to support the oven. A
properly supported piece of 3/4” (1.9 cm) thick plywood is
recommended.
All contact surfaces between the appliance and the cabi-
net, including the support platform, must be sturdy, straight
and level. The oven cannot be leveled after it has been
installed.
