STEP 4: PREPARE THE WALL AND UPPER CABINET FOR INSTALLATION

DRILL THE HOLES IN THE WALL AND UPPER CABINET.

WARNING

BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN DRILLING HOLES INTO THE WALL.

Electrical wires could be concealed behind the wall covering and if the drill hits them you could get an electric shock.

1.Find the points on the mounting plate labeled "A", "B", "C" and "D". Drill a 3/16" diameter hole at any of these points that are in front of a wall stud. Drill a 3/4" diameter hole at any of these points that are over drywall.

2.Drill a 3/8" hole at points "J" and "K" on the upper cabinet template.

NOTE: If the bottom of the upper cabinet is recessed 3/4" or more, you will need 2"x2" filler blocks (not included) to provide additional support for the bolts. See Figure 24.

•Mark the center of each filler block and drill a 3/8" diameter hole at the mark.

•Align filler blocks over the two openings in the top of the microwave oven cabinet and attach to cabinet with masking tape. See Figure 25.

3.Cut or drill a 2" diameter hole at the area marked "M", "power supply cord hole" on the upper cabinet template. If the upper cabinet is metal, you will need to cover the edge of the hole with the power supply cord bushing (supplied) to prevent damage to the cord from the rough metal edge.

WARNING

YOU MUST COVER THE EDGE OF THE POWER SUPPLY CORD HOLE IN A METAL CABINET WITH THE POWER SUPPLY CORD BUSHING. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE CORD AND ELECTRIC SHOCK.

•Wall or Room Venting (Recirculating): go to STEP 5, INSTALL THE MOUNTING PLATE, located on page 15.
