INSTALLATION
INSTALLING THE APPLIANCE
1. Remove all packaging and check carefully for any signs of damage.
2. If fitting the microwave oven above a conventional oven (position A) or a refrigerator (position C)
then you must check the installation instructions for that appliance to determine air intake and
exhaust requirements.
A refrigerator needs a chimney to exhaust warm air from the rear. The installation should be as
shown in fig. 1.
A conventional oven exhausts warm air from the front. The installation should be as shown in fig. 2.
If installing the microwave oven above a conventional oven, the Mylar sheet that is supplied with
the microwave oven should be fitted as shown in fig. 3. This prevents warm air from the microwave
oven from being drawn in by the conventional oven.
3. Fit the appliance into the kitchen cupboard slowly, and without force, until the front frame of the
oven seals against the front opening of the cupboard.
4. Ensure the appliance is stable and not leaning. Ensure that a 5mm gap is kept between the
cupboard door above and the top of the frame (see fig. 4).
5. Fix the oven in position with the screws provided. The fixing points are located on the top and
bottom corners of the oven (see diagram, item 10, on page 2).
6. It is important to ensure that the installation of this product conforms to the instructions in this
operation manual and the conventional oven or refrigerator manufacturer’s installation instructions.
