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
temperature above 50°F (10°C) for proper operation.		Air intake	Exhaust vent
