Materials needed
■
Standard fittings for wall or roof venting. See “Venting Design

Location Requirements
Check the opening where the microwave oven will be installed.
The location must provide:
■
Minimum installation dimensions. See “Installation
Dimensions” illustration.

NOTES:
■
If installing the microwave oven near a left sidewall, make sure
there is at least 6" (15.2 cm) of clearance between the wall and
the microwave oven, so that the door can open fully.
■
Some cabinet and building materials are not designed to
withstand the heat produced by the microwave oven for
cooking. Check with your builder or cabinet supplier to make
sure that the materials used will not discolor, delaminate or
sustain other damages.

For Wall Venting Installation Only:
■
The 12" x 4" (30.5 x 10.2 cm) cutout area must align with the
rectangular hole in the mounting plate.

fits properly, and the damper blade opens freely and fully.
For Roof Venting Installation Only:
■
If using rectangular to round transition piece, the 3" (7.6 cm)
