Step 3: Prepare the Venting Blower
Your microwave oven is shipped with the blower
assembled for roof venting. You need to adjust the
blower if you want wall-venting or room-venting
installation.
WARNING
• Electric shock hazard! Unplug unit before
working on it.
• Do not pull or stretch the blower wiring. Pulling
and stretching the blower wiring could result in
electric shock.
• To avoid risk of property damage, unplug the
microwave oven or disconnect the power at the
source by removing the fuse or throwing the
circuit breaker.
• To avoid risk of personal injury, wear protective
gloves when handling the mounting plate.
Installation
1
Remove any shipping materials and parts
from inside the microwave oven. Set them
aside for later use.
2
Cover the countertop or cooktop with a thick,
protective covering to protect it from damage
and dirt. If your range has cooktop controls in
the front, unplug the range before covering
the cooktop to prevent risk of fire and
damage if the knobs are accidentally activated
while installing the OTR.

Blanket, cardboard or other covering
NOTE
• If you have a free-standing range, disconnect it,
move it onto a piece of cardboard or hardboard
and pull it away from the wall, so that you can
get closer to the upper cabinet and back wall for
easier measuring and drilling.
3
Locate the exhaust adapter, grease filters and
hardware packet.
4
At this point, remove any adhesive tape (if
there is any), on the exhaust adapter, the
grease filters and the power supply cord.
