THETEMPLATE
1. Using a plumb line and measuring tape, find and
mark the vertical center line
as in Figure 24.
2. Find and mark one or two points where the studs
are on the wall. Then measure and mark the stud
locations. If you cannot find any wall stud, consult
a local building contractor.
CAUTION
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO INSTALL THE
MICROWAVE OVEN IF YOU CANNOT

3. Line up the plumb line on the wall with the center
line on the mounting plate.
NOTE: Be sure the minimum width is 30 inches and
the distance from the top of the wall
template to the rang or counter top is at
least 30 inches. See Figure 24.
4. Center mounting plate in opening by lining up the
plumb line on wall with centerline on mounting plate.
Make sure the minimum width is 30 inches and that
the top of the mounting plate is located a minimum
of 30 inches above the cooking surface.
See Figure 25.
NOTE: If the cabinets are not plumb, adjust the
mounting plate to the cabinets. If the front
edge of the cabinet is lower than the back
edge, adjust the mounting plate to be level
with the cabinet front.
5. Measure the bottom of the upper cabinet frame.
Trim the edges "A", "B" and "C" on the upper
cabinet template so that the template will fit on
the bottom of the upper cabinet. If upper cabinet
has a recessed frame, trim template so that it fits
inside the recessed area. Align the centerline of
the upper cabinet template with the centerline of
the mounting plate; then securely tape or tack the
upper cabinet template in place. See Figure 25.
