Installation Instructions
STEP 5: Install The Mounting Plate
The Oven Must Be Connected To At Least One
Wall Stud.
1. Draw a vertical line on the wall at the center of the 30 wide
space. Use the mounting plate as the template for the rear
wall. Place the mounting plate on the wall, making sure that
the tabs are against the bottom of the cabinet. Line up the
notch and center line on the mounting plate to the center line
on the wall.
2. While holding the mounting plate with one hand, draw circles
on the wall at holes A, B, C and D. Four holes must be used
for mounting. If the holes are not used, the installation will not
be secure. Installer must use these holes for proper
installation. Use toggle bolts through these holes unless one of
them lines up with a stud. Use a wood screw for studs.
NOTE: Draw a fifth circle inside area E, through one of the
bottom holes to match the location of a stud.
For wall-vented: The oven requires a rear wall cutout opening for
the rear wall duct and the exhaust adaptor must be attached to
the mounting plate. See the next page on how to prepare the rear
wall cutout opening and the exhaust adaptor/mounting plate for
wall-vented.
3. Drill holes on the circles. If there is a stud, drill a 3/16 hole for
lag screws. If there is no stud, drill a 5/8 hole for toggle bolts.
Make sure to use at least 1 lag screw in a stud, and 4 toggle
bolts in the drywall or the plaster.
4. Attach the plate to the wall. To use spring toggle head bolts:
Remove the toggle wings from the bolts. Insert the bolts into
the mounting plate and replace the spring toggle head to 3/4
past the bolt ends. Insert the spring toggle head into the holes
in the wall to mount the plate. You may pull forward on the
plate to help in tightening the toggle bolts. Tighten all bolts.
