Installation instructions

BEFORE YOU BEGIN, READ THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS COMPLETELY AND CAREFULLY.

Installing your microwave oven

1. Empty the microwave oven and clean inside it with a soft, damp cloth. Check for damage such as misaligned door, damage around the door

or dents inside the oven or on the exterior. If there is any damage, do not operate the unit until it has been checked by an authorized Whirlpool service technician and any repairs made.

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 han-

dling.) The weight of the oven is approximately 70 Ibs. (31.75 kg).

3.Do not block the vent openings on the rear of the oven or the air intake openings on the bottom of the oven. Blocking vent or air intake openings can cause poor cooking results. The air from these vent openings will also contain mois- ture and should not be vented onto overhead cabinets.

Make sure the microwave oven legs are in place. Do not set the oven on anything that will block the air intake openings.

4.Do not install the microwave oven so that both sides and the fop are flush with walls or cabinets. One side or the top must have at least

1in. (2.54 cm] clearance for proper operation.

Do not install the oven next to a conventional surface unit or in any area where excessive heat and steam are generated. This could damage the outside of the cabinet.
