1.Find studs, using one of following methods:

Stud finder--magnetic device which locates nails.

Use hammer to tap lightly across mounting surface

to find solid sound. This will indicate stud location.

Note: After locating stud or studs, stud center can be found by probing wall with small nail to find edges of stud. Place mark halfway between edges. Center of any adjacent stud should be 16 inches or 24 inches from mark.

2.Draw line down middle of studs. Microwave must be connected to at least one wall stud.

3.Draw vertical line on wall, at center of 30 inch wide space.

4.Use mounting plate as template for rear wall. Place mounting plate on wall, verify tabs are against bottom of cabinet. Line up notch and center line on mounting plate to center line on wall.

5.While holding mounting plate with one hand, draw circles on wall at holes A and B, marked on mounting plate. See diagram below. Holes A and B are shown by arrows stamped into mounting plate and must be used for mounting. If holes are not used, improper installation will occur. Use toggle bolts through these holes unless one lines up with stud. Use wood screw for stud. Set mounting bracket aside.

6.Draw third circle through one of top or bottom holes to match location of stud.

NOTE: For outside back exhaust, microwave oven requires rear wall cutout opening for rear wall duct. See "Preparing Rear Wall Cutout Opening for Outside Back Exhaust" section.

7.Drill holes through circles. Diameter of holes should be 5/8 inch for toggle bolts and 3/16 inch for wood screws on studs. Use at least 1 wood screw in stud, and 2 toggle bolt assemblies into drywall or plaster.

8.Attach mounting plate to wall.

9.Remove toggle assembly from screws. Insert screws into mounting plate and replace toggle assembly to 3/4 inch past screw ends. Insert toggle assembly into holes in wall to mount bracket. Pull forward on bracket to tighten toggle bolts.

If installation is other than outside back exhaust, proceed to step F.

E. Preparing Rear Wall Cutout Opening for Outside Back Exhaust

1.Place mounting plate against rear wall, as described in diagram at left.

2.Using pencil, draw dots through holes D and E, and in tips of notches G and F. Mark straight edges of H and I for bottom line. This will give location and size of box cutout for rear wall duct.

3.Verify exhaust adaptor (with damper) is squared up in house duct and lines up with holes in mounting plate.

4.Attach 28 inch foam tape to front of mounting plate, around both exhaust openings where it will touch microwave oven.

NOTE: Exhaust must be aligned within space between studs.
