Location Requirements
Check the opening where the microwave oven will be installed.
The location must provide:
■ Minimum installation dimensions. See the “Installation
Dimensions” illustration.
■ Minimum one 2" x 4" (5.1 x 10.2 cm) wood wall stud and
minimum 3/8" (1 cm) thickness drywall or plaster/lath within
cabinet opening.
■ Support for weight of 150 lbs (68 kg) which includes
microwave oven and items placed inside the microwave
oven and upper cabinet.
■ Grounded electrical outlet inside upper cabinet. See the
“Electrical Requirements” section.
NOTES:
■ If installing the microwave oven near a left sidewall, make
sure there is at least 6" (15.2 cm) of clearance between the
wall and the microwave oven so that the door can open fully.
■ Some models have a pocket handle. If installing the
microwave near a right side wall, make sure there is at least
3 inches of clearance between wall and microwave oven so
you can grab the handle integrated inside the door.
■ Some cabinet and building materials are not designed to
withstand the heat produced by the microwave oven for
cooking. Check with your builder or cabinet supplier to make
sure that the materials used will not discolor, delaminate, or
sustain other damages.
