IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Be sure your wall oven is installed and grounded
properly by a qualified installer or service technician.
• This wall oven must be electrically grounded in
accordance with local codes or, in their absence,
with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No.70-
latest edition in United Sates, or with CSA Standard
C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, in Canada.
Stepping, leaning or sitting on the door
of this wall oven can result in serious injuries and can
also cause damage to the wall oven.
Never use your wall oven for warming or
heating the room. Prolonged use of the wall oven without
adequate ventilation can be dangerous.
The electrical power to the oven must be
shut off while line connections are being made. Failure to
do so could result in serious injury or death.
1. Carpentry
Refer to figure 1 for the dimensions applicable to your
appliance, and the space necessary to receive the
oven. The oven support surface may be solid plywood
or similar material, however the surface must be level
from side to side and from front to rear.

2. Adjusting Oven Height

Oven height can be adjusted with 2" (5cm) wide wood
shims when needed to fit into an existing cabinet
cutout opening, when cutout height exceeds 27
(70.2 cm) (see Figure 1). Place shims of appropriate
height beneath the oven side rails.

3. Electrical Requirements

This appliance must be supplied with the proper
voltage and frequency, and connected to an individual,
properly grounded branch circuit, protected by a circuit
breaker or fuse. To know the circuit breaker or fuse
