Installation Instructions

DETERMINING MOUNTING PLATE LOCATION UNDER YOUR CABINET

C

Your cabinets may have decorative trim that interferes 
with the microwave oven installation. You may need 
to remove the decorative trim to install the microwave 
oven properly and to make it level.

THE MICROWAVE OVEN MUST BE LEVEL. 

Use a level to make sure the cabinet bottom is level.

If the cabinets have a front overhang, install the 
mounting plate down the same distance as the front 
overhang depth. This will keep the microwave oven 
level.

 

Measure the inside depth of the front overhang.

 

Draw a horizontal line on the back wall an equal  

distance below the cabinet bottom as the inside 

depth of the front overhang.

 

For this type of installation with front overhang, 

align the mounting tabs with this horizontal line, not 

touching the cabinet bottom as described in Step D.
