Prepare Upper Cabinet

1. Disconnect power to outlet.
2. Remove all contents from upper cabinet.
3. Place Upper Cabinet Template against the bottom of the
upper cabinet, and tape or tack it in place. Make sure the
template centerline aligns with the vertical centerline on the
rear wall.
The "rear wall" arrows must be against the rear wall so that the
holes cut into the upper cabinet align with the holes in the top
of the microwave oven.
NOTES:
If the upper cabinet has a frame around it, trim the template
edges so that it fits inside the frame, against the upper cabinet
bottom. The template has trim lines to use as guides.
If the wall behind the microwave oven (as installed) has a
partial wall covering (for example, tile backsplash), be sure the
"Rear Wall" arrows align to the thickest part of the rear wall
(for example, the thickness of the tiles rather than the drywall).
4. Make sure the 10 " (26.7 cm) dimension from the rear wall to
points "D" and "E" on the template is maintained.

"G" on the template. This hole is for the power supply cord.
NOTE: If upper cabinet is metal, the supply cord bushing needs to
be installed around the supply cord hole, as shown.

6. Drill 3/8" (10 mm) holes at points "D" and "E" on the template.

secure the microwave oven to the upper cabinet.
