Installation Instructions:
• Select a level surface which provides enough open space for
the intake and/or outlet vents.
• A minimum clearance of 3.0 inches (7.5 cm) is required
between the oven and all adjacent walls; one side must be
open.
• Leave a minimum clearance of 12 inches (30 cm) above the
oven.
• Do not remove the legs from the bottom of the microwave
oven.
• Blocking the intake and/or outlet openings can damage the
oven.
• Place the microwave oven as far way as possible from radios
and television, as operation of the microwave oven may cause
interference with the devices.
• Plug your microwave oven into a standard household outlet
which matches the voltage and frequency on the rating label.
Warning: Do not install the microwave oven over a range cooktop
or other heat-producing appliances, another heat source could
damage the microwave oven, voiding your warranty.
• The microwave oven may be installed over a built-in oven. If
installing over a built-in oven, ensure there is a minimum of 3”
(7.6 cm) between the top of the lower oven cutout and the
microwave oven cutout oor.
• The microwave oven may also be installed in a cabinet without
a built-in oven below. We recommend a minimum distance of
36” (91.4 cm) from the oor to the cutout oor.
• Ensure the surrounding cabinetry has clearance to open and
close freely. Allow a clearance of at least 1 9/16” (4 cm) below
the cutout oor, 3” (7.6 cm) for installation above a built-in oven,
and a 2” (5.1 cm) above the cutout opening.
• Height dimension is critical: 17” (43.2 cm) minimum and 17
1/8”
(43.5 cm) maximum.
• Width and depth measurements have 1/16” (2mm) tolerance.
• 3” (7.6 cm) minimum dimension is from lower oven cutout ceiling to microwave oven
cutout oor.
• Trim kit frame extends 1 1/16” (2.7 cm) above and below the cutout opening.
