STEP 5: Install The Mounting Plate

The Oven Must Be Connected To At Least One

Wall Stud.

1.Draw a vertical line on the wall at the center of the 30 wide space. Use the mounting plate as the template for the rear wall. Place the mounting plate on the wall, making sure that the tabs are against the bottom of the cabinet. Line up the notch and center line on the mounting plate to the center line on the wall.

2.While holding the mounting plate with one hand, draw circles on the wall at holes A, B, C and D. Four holes must be used for mounting. If the holes are not used, the installation will not be secure. Installer must use these holes for proper installation. Use toggle bolts through these holes unless one of them lines up with a stud. Use a wood screw for studs.

NOTE: Draw a fifth circle inside area E, through one of the bottom holes to match the location of a stud. For wall- vented: The oven requires a rear wall cutout opening for the rear wall duct and the exhaust adaptor must be attached to the mounting plate. See the next page on how to prepare the rear wall cutout opening and the exhaust adaptor/mounting plate for wall-vented.

3.Drill holes on the circles. If there is a stud, drill a 3/16 hole for lag screws. If there is no stud, drill a 5/8 hole for toggle bolts. Make sure to use at least 1 lag screw in a stud, and 4 toggle bolts in the drywall or the plaster.

4.Attach the plate to the wall. To use spring toggle head bolts: Remove the toggle wings from the bolts. Insert the bolts into the mounting plate and replace the spring toggle head to 3/4 past the bolt ends. Insert the spring toggle head into the holes in the wall to mount the plate. You may pull forward on the plate to help in tightening the toggle bolts. Tighten all bolts.
