Installation Instructions

Before you begin operating the oven, carefully read the following instructions.

1.Empty the microwave oven and clean inside it with a soft, damp cloth. Check for damage such as a door that isn’t lined up correctly, damage around the door, or dents inside the oven or on the exterior. If there is any damage, do not operate the oven until a designated service technician has checked it and made any needed repairs.

2.Put the oven on a cart, counter, table, or shelf that is strong enough to hold the oven and the food and utensils you put in it. (The control side of the unit is the heavy side. Use care when handling the oven.) The weight of the oven is about 35 lbs (16 kg). The microwave oven should be at a tempera- ture above 50°F (10°C) for proper operation.

NOTE: You can build your microwave oven into a wall or cabinet by using one of the trim kits listed in the “Built-in kits” section.

NOTE: Do not block the exhaust vents or air intake openings. Allow a few inches of space at the back and side of the oven where the exhaust vents are located. Blocking the exhaust vents could cause damage to the oven and poor cooking results. Make sure the microwave oven legs are in place to ensure proper airflow. If vents are blocked, a sensitive ther- mal safety device automatically turns the oven off. The oven should work properly once it has cooled.
