Mount the Microwave Oven
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install microwave oven.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
IMPORTANT: Do not grip or use door handle during installation.
NOTE: If the cabinet front hangs below the cabinet bottom shelf, it is recommended
that you use filler blocks to avoid damage to the case from overtightening the
screws.
1. Thread the power cord through the hole in the bottom of the overhead cabinet.
Keep the power cord tight while mounting the oven.
NOTE: If the overhead cabinet is metal, use the nylon grommet around the
power cord hole to avoid cutting the power cord.
2. Using two or more people, lift the microwave, tilt it forward, and hook slots at
back bottom edge onto four lower tabs of mounting plate.
3. Rotate front of oven up against cabinet bottom.
4. Insert a self-aligning screw through top center cabinet hole. Temporarily secure
the oven by turning the screw at least two full turns after the threads have
engaged. (It will be completely tightened later.) Be sure to keep power cord tight.
Be careful not to pinch the cord, especially when mounting flush to bottom of
cabinet.
