Important Safety Instructions
IMPORTANT – Please read carefully. For personal safety,
this appliance must be properly grounded to avoid severe or
fatal shock.
This product requires a three-prong, properly grounded outlet
for safe operation. If not properly grounded, or if the outlet box
does not meet electrical requirements noted (under Electrical
Requirements), a qualified electrician should be employed to
correct any deficiencies.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped
Ensure proper
ground exists
before use
with a three-prong (grounding) plug which
mates with a standard three-prong (grounding)
wall receptacle to minimize the possibility of
electric shock hazard from this appliance.
You should have the wall receptacle and
circuit checked by a qualified electrician
to make sure the receptacle is properly
grounded.
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is encountered,
it is very important to have it replaced with a properly
grounded three-prong wall receptacle, installed by a qualified
electrician.
Do not, under any circumstances, cut, deform or remove any
of the prongs from the power cord.
If a long cord or extension cord is used:
a) The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension
cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of
the appliance.
b) The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord,
and the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not
drape over the counter top or table top where it can be
pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
NOTE: For easier installation and personal safety, it is
recommended that two people install this product.
WARNING
For personal safety, remove the house fuse or turn off the
circuit breaker before beginning installation to avoid severe
or fatal shock injury.
For personal safety, the mounting surface
must be capable of supporting the
cabinet load, in addition to the added
weight of this 50-70 pounds (22.6-31.7
kilograms) product, plus additional oven
loads of up to 50 pounds (22.6 kilograms)
for a total weight of 100-120 pounds
(45.2-54.3 kilograms).
For personal safety, this product cannot
be installed in cabinet arrangements such as an island or a
peninsula. It must be mounted to BOTH a top cabinet AND a
wall.
Electrical Requirements
The product rating of your microwave is 120VAC / 60Hz
/ 15A max / 1500W. This product must be connected to a
supply circuit of the proper voltage and frequency. Wire size
must conform to the requirements of the National Electrical
Code or the prevailing local code for this kilowatt rating. The
power supply cord and plug should be brought to a separate
15 ampere branch circuit single grounded outlet. The outlet
box should be located in the cabinet above the microwave
oven. The outlet box and supply circuit should be installed by
a qualified electrician and conform to the National Electrical
Code or the prevailing local code.

the stud.
(OR)
B. Use a hammer to tap lightly across the mounting
surface to find a solid sound. This will indicate a wall stud
location.
2. After locating the stud(s), find the center by probing the
wall with a small nail to find the edges of the stud. Then
place a mark halfway between the edges. The center of
any adjacent studs should be 16” (40.6 cm) or 24” (61 cm)
from this mark.
3. Draw a line down the center of the studs. (Fig. 2)

Your cabinets may have decorative trim that interferes with
the microwave installation. Remove the decorative trim to
install the microwave properly and to make it level.
Microwave Leveling
Use a level to make sure the cabinet bottom is level. If the
cabinets have a front overhang only, with no back or side
frame, top line of rear wall template must align with below
cabinet bottom, the same distance as the front overhang
depth. This will keep the microwave level.
1. Measure the inside depth of the front overhang.
2. Draw a horizontal line on the back wall an equal distance
below the cabinet bottom as the inside depth of the front
overhang.
3. For this type of installation with front overhang only, align
top line of rear wall template with this horizontal line, not
touching the cabinet bottom as described in “Aligning Top
Line of Rear Wall Template follows”.
Aligning Top Line of Rear Wall Template (Fig. 6)
CAUTION
Wear gloves to avoid cutting fingers on sharp edges.
1. Using a tape measure, draw a vertical line on the wall at
the center of the 30” (76.2cm) wide space.
2. Tape the rear wall template on the cabinet wall, align the
center markers on the rear wall template to the centerline
on wall, making sure it is level and that the top line of the
rear wall template is butted up against the bottom edge of
the upper cabinet.
3. According to the shape of cabinet, the location of the
wall template is compliant with the content part of
“Determining top line of rear wall template location under
your cabinet”.
4. While taping the rear wall template on the wall draw
circles on the wall at hole A,B,C (See Fig. 6 / actual plate
marked with arrows). THREE HOLES MUST BE USED
FOR MOUNTING. (If there are 2-wall studs in right and
left side based on center line Four hole must be used for
mounting)
5. Remove the rear wall template and check the marking
based on the actual mount plate (centerline, hole A,B,C).
6. Drill holes on the circle marks (A, B, C). Drill a 3/16” hole at C
for wood screw and two ⅝” holes at A, B for toggle bolts .

Hood Exhaust
NOTE: If you need to install ducting, note that the total duct
length of 3¼” x 10” (8.2 x 25.4cm) rectangular or 6”(15.2cm)
diameter round duct should not exceed 120 equivalent
feet (36.5m). Outside ventilation requires a HOOD
EXHAUST DUCT. Read the following carefully.
NOTE: It is important that venting be installed using the most
direct route and with as few elbows as possible. This ensures
clear venting of exhaust and helps prevent blockages. Also,
make sure dampers swing freely and nothing is blocking the
outlet or dampers.
Exhaust Connection
The exhaust adapter has been designed to mate with a
standard 3¼” x 10” (8.2 x 25.4cm) rectangular duct.
If a round duct is required, a rectangular-to-round transiting
adapter must be used. Do not use less than a 6” diameter
duct.
Maximum Duct Length
For satisfactory air movement, the total duct length of
3¼” x 10” (8.2 x 25.4 cm) rectangular or 6” (15.2 cm) diameter
round duct should not exceed 120 equivalent feet (36.5m).
Elbows, transitions, wall and roof caps, etc., present
additional resistance to airflow and are equivalent to a
section of straight duct which is longer than their actual
physical size. When calculating the total duct length, add the
equivalent lengths of all transitions and adapters plus the
length of all straight duct sections. The chart below shows
you how to calculate total equivalent ductwork length using
the approximate feet of equivalent length of some typical
ducts.
