DETERMINING WALL PLATE LOCATION UNDER YOUR CABINET
Your cabinets may have decorative trim that
interferes with the microwave installation. Remove
the decorative trim to install the microwave properly
and to make it level.
THE MICROWAVE MUST BE LEVEL.
Use a level to make sure the cabinet bottom is level.
If the cabinets have a front overhang only, with no
back or side frame, install the mounting plate down
the same distance as the front overhang depth. This
will keep the microwave level.
1.
Measure the inside depth of the front overhang.
2.
Draw a horizontal line on the back wall an equal
distance below the cabinet bottom as the inside
depth of the front overhang.
3.
For this type of installation with front overhang
only, align the mounting tabs with this horizontal
line, not touching the cabinet bottom as described
in Step D.
