DETERMINING MOUNTING PLATE LOCATION UNDER YOUR CABINET C
Your cabinets may have decorative trim that interferes
with the microwave oven installation. You may need to
remove the decorative trim to install the microwave oven
properly and to make it level.
THE MICROWAVE OVEN MUST BE LEVEL.
Use a level to make sure the cabinet bottom is level.
If the cabinets have a front overhang, install the
mounting plate down the same distance as the front
overhang depth. This will keep the microwave oven level.
Measure the inside depth of the front overhang.
Draw a horizontal line on the back wall an equal
distance below the cabinet bottom as the inside depth
of the front overhang.
For this type of installation with front overhang,
align the mounting tabs with this horizontal line, not
touching the cabinet bottom as described in Step D.
