OVER THE RANGE cONVEcTiON MicROWAVE OVEN
iNsTAllATiON iNsTRucTiONs
Please read all instructions thoroughly before installing the Over the Range Microwave Oven/Hood
System. Two people are recommended to install this product.
If a new electrical outlet is required, its installation should be completed by a qualified electrician before
the microwave oven is installed. See 3 ELECTRICAL GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS on page 2.
1. MOUNTING SPACE
This Microwave Oven/Hood requires a mounting space on a wall
as shown in Figure 1.
For proper installation and servicing, a 2-inch space is necessary
between the top of the range backsplash and the bottom of the
Microwave Oven/Hood system.
2. WALL CONSTRUCTION
This Microwave Oven/Hood should be mounted against and
supported by a flat vertical wall. The wall must be flat for proper
installation. If the wall is not flat, use spacers to fill in the gaps.
Wall construction should be a minimum of 2" x 4" wood studding
and 3/8" or more thick dry wall or plaster/lath. The mounting
surfaces must be capable of supporting weight of 110 pounds—
the oven and contents—AND the weight of all items which would
normally be stored in the top cabinet above the unit.
The unit should be attached to a minimum of one 2" x 4" wall
stud.
To find the location of the studs, one of the following methods
may be used:
A. Use a stud finder, a magnetic device which locates the nails in
the stud.
B. Use a hammer to tap lightly across the mounting surface to find
a solid sound. This will indicate stud location.
The center of the stud can be located by probing the wall with a
small nail to find the edges of the stud and then placing a mark
halfway between the edges. The center of any adjacent studs will
normally be 16" or 24" to either side of this mark.
Note: In the event that the unit will be unable to be supported by
any stud, it will be necessary to use special care in the placement
of the toggle bolts and top cabinet screws. See Wall Template for
details. The top cabinet should be tested to ensure it is securely
attached to the wall. Place extra weight up to 110 pounds inside
the top cabinet to test the support.
