Note: The framed depth, 20-5/8" (524 mm) from a framed wall, must always be measured from a finished surface. If a wall covering such as drywall is to be attached to the rear wall, then the 20-5/8" (524 mm) must be measured from the drywall surface. It is important that this dimension be exact.

If the appliance is to be elevated above floor level, a solid continuous platform must be constructed.

The header may rest on the top metal spacers, but must not be notched to fit around them.

Consult all local codes.
