Prepare Upper Cabinet; Install Damper Assembly - KitchenAid YKMHS120ES Installation Insrtuctions

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 attach with tape or thumbtacks. 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" (25.4 cm) dimension from the rear wall
to points "D" and "E" on the template is maintained.

5. Cut the 1Z\₂" (3.8 cm) diameter hole at the circular
shaded area "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.

secure the microwave oven to the upper cabinet.
