WE RECOMMEND THAT TWO PEOPLE INSTALL THIS
MICROWAVE OVEN.
IMPORTANT: Do not grip or use the handle during
installation.
NOTE
: If your cabinet is metal, use the nylon grommet
around the power cord hole to prevent cutting of the
cord.

: We recommend using filler blocks if the cabinet
front hangs below the cabinet bottom shelf.
IMPORTANT: If filler blocks are not used, case
damage may occur from over tightening screws.

power cord through hole in bottom of top cabinet.
Keep it tight throughout Steps 1-3. Do not pinch cord or
lift oven by pulling cord.
