STANDARD INSTALLATION (FLAT CABINET)
Important: Always wear protective glasses or goggles to prevent injury when drilling.
1.Clear countertop under installation area to avoid getting dust or debris on other appliances or items. Open cabinets and remove contents to make mounting easier.
2.Clean both the underside and topside of the bottom panel of the cabinet.
3.With cabinet doors open, place mounting template flush against the surface of the underside of your cabinet, making sure to align thick line on template with bottom front edge of your cabinet (D).

Important: Do not align screw holes on template directly under the partition between cabinets, as this will prevent you from installing the appliance properly. Pay close attention to where the drill holes will be set so as not to damage your cabinets during mounting. Drilling through your cabinet’s partition may cause damage to cabinets and prevent proper installation.

8.Place a washer inside the cabinet over each of the 4 holes you drilled.
