Floor
• The panel above the appliance must be made from a solid material (not MDF) that is at
least 5/8" (16 mm) thick.
• The side walls of the cavity or enclosure must be flush.
• The front 4 inches (100 mm) of the interior surface (furniture return) will be visible when
doors are open. Make sure this area is finished to at least 4 inches deep.
• Follow the specifications for the installation enclosure to ensure a trouble free installation.
• Above all, the enclosure cannot be out of square. Use a spirit level or measure the diago-
nals of the opening to make sure corners are square.
• The appliance is attached at the sides and the top to either the enclosure or to adjacent
cabinets. Make sure the enclosure or the adjacent cabinets are securely connected to the
floor or wall structures.

mance.
• Do not install the appliance on a platform or raised structure.
• The structure underneath the appliance must be able to support the weight of the appliance with-
out tilting or flexing.
