MOUNT THE MICROWAVE
OVEN

FOR EASIER INSTALLATION AND PERSONAL
SAFETY, WE RECOMMEND THAT TWO PEOPLE
INSTALL THIS MICROWAVE OVEN.

IMPORTANT: Do not grip or use handle

during installation.

NOTE: If your cabinet is metal, use the nylon

grommet around the power cord hole to prevent
cutting of the cord.

NOTE: We recommend using filler blocks if the

cabinet front hangs below the cabinet bottom shelf.

IMPORTANT: If filler blocks are

not used, case damage may occur from

overtightening screws.

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.

2 Rotate front of oven

up against cabinet
bottom.

NOTE: When mounting the
microwave oven, thread
power cord through hole in
bottom of top cabinet. Keep
it tight throughout Steps
1–3. Do not pinch cord or
lift oven by pulling cord.

Lift microwave, tilt it
forward, and hook
slots at back bottom
edge onto four lower
tabs of mounting
plate.
