BEFORE YOU START
1. Remove any shipping materials and parts from inside the
microwave oven.
2. Cover the counter top or cooktop with a thick, protective
covering to protect it from damage and dirt.
See Figure 20.
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. Be careful not to pinch or
damage the cord when you push the range back.
MEASURE AND TACK / TAPE UP THE
TEMPLATES
1. Using a plumb line and (metal) measuring tape, find and
mark the vertical center line on the back wall, as
in Figure 21.
2. Find and mark one or two points where the studs are on
the wall. (Studs are normally 16 inches apart)
Then measure and mark the stud locations within the
area marked H on the wall template.
If you cannot find any wall stud, consult a local building
contractor.
CAUTION
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO INSTALL THE MICROWAVE
OVEN IF YOU CANNOT FIND A WALL STUD.
3. Line up the plumb line on the wall with the center line on
the wall template.
NOTE: Be sure the minimum width is 30 inches and the
distance from the top of the wall template to the
range or counter top is at least 30 inches.
See Figure 4 on page 4.
4. Securely tape or tack the wall template to the wall.
See Figure 22.
NOTE: If the cabinets are not plumb, adjust the wall
template to the cabinets.
Remember, the oven must hang level.
If the front edge of the cabinet is lower than the
back edge, adjust the wall template to be level with
the cabinet front.
5. Measure the bottom of the upper cabinet frame. Trim the
edges A, B, and C on the upper cabinet template so that
the template will fit on the bottom of the upper cabinet. If
upper cabinet has a recessed frame, trim the template so
it fits inside the recessed area. Align the centerline of the
upper cabinet template with the centerline of the wall
template, then securely tape or tack the upper cabinet
template in place. See Figure 22.
STEP 4: PREPARE THE WALL AND
UPPER CABINET FOR INSTALLATION
