Installation Instructions
ALIGNING THE MOUNTING PLATE
Draw a vertical line on the wall at the center of the 30
s
wide space.
Use the mounting plate
as the template
for the rear
wall. Place the mounting plate on the wall, making
sure that the tabs are
touching the bottom of the
cabinet or
the level line drawn in Step C for cabinets with
front overhang. Line up the notch and center line
on the mounting plate to the center line on the
wall.
While holding the mounting plate with one hand,
draw circles on the wall at holes A, B, C, and D (see
illustration above/actual plate marked with arrows) .
Four holes must be used for mounting.
NOTE:
Holes C and D are inside area E. If neither
C nor D is in a stud, find a stud somewhere in area
E and draw a fifth circle to line up with the stud. It is
important to use
at least one wood screw
mounted
firmly in a stud
to support the weight of the microwave oven.
Set the mounting plate aside.
WARNING
Risk of electric shock. Can cause
injury or death. Take care to not drill into electrical
wiring inside walls or cabinets.
Drill holes on the circles. If there is a stud, drill a
