Before you begin installing the oven, PLACE A PIECE OF THE CARTON OR OTHER HEAVY MATERIAL (a blanket) over the

countertop or cooktop to protect it. Do not use a plastic cover. Failure to protect these surfaces could result in property damage,

BEFORE YOU START

1, Remove any shipping materials and parts from inside the microwave oven.

2.Cover the counter top or cooktop with a thick, protective covering to

protect it from damage and dirt.

See Figure 20.

NOTE: If you have a free-standingrange, disconnect it, move it onto a piece of cardboard or hardboard and pullit away from the wall, so that you can get closer to the upper cabinet and beck wall for easier measuring and drilling. Be careful notto pinch or damage the cord when you push the range back.

MEASURE AND TACK / TAPE UP THE

TEMPLATES

1.Using a plumb line and (metal) measuring tape, find and mark the vertical center line on the back wall, as in Figure 21.

2.Find and mark one or two points where the studs are on the wall. (Studs are normally 16 inches apart)

Then measure and mark the stud locations within the area marked H on the wall template.

If you cannot find any wall stud, consult a local building contractor.

3, Line up the plumb line on the wall with the center line on the wall

template.

NOTE: Be sure the minimum width is 30 inches and the distance

from the top of the wall template to the range or counter top is at least 30 inches.

See Figure 21.

4.Securely tape or tack the wall template to the wall. See Figure 22.

NOTE: If the cabinets are not plumb, adjust the wall template to the cabinets.

Remember, the oven must hang level.

If the front edge of the cabinet is lower than the back edge, adjust the wall template to be level with the cabinet front.

5.Measure the bottom of the upper cabinet frame. Trim the edges

A, B and C on the upper cabinet template so that the template will fit on the bottom of the upper cabinet. If upper cabinet has a recessed frame, trim the template so it fits inside the recessed area. Align the centerline of the upper cabinet template with the centerline of the wall template, then securely tape or tack the upper cabinet template in place.

See Figure 22.
