Step 3: Preparing the Electric
The Thermador microwave oven is equipped with a grounded cord. The wall receptacle must be installed and grounded in accordance with the national electrical code. It can be installed anywhere in the shaded area in Figure 1 (previous page). Electrical connections and grounding must comply with all applicable local codes.
The electrical requirements for a separate circuit serving only this microwave oven are: 120V, 60Hz, 15Amp.
WARNING: Improper grounding can result in risk of electric shock.
Step 4: Preparing the Trim Kit
(1)Attach the two vertical side trim brackets to the template as shown in Figure 3. Use two (2) #8 x 3/8, Type B screws on each side.
(2)Mark the center line on bottom edge of the cutout.
(3)Hold template in front of cabinet cutout. Line up the bottom of the template with the bottom of the cutout. Align the template notch with the centerline of the cutout.
(4)Mark the location of the three holes in the trim brackets on both sides. Set brackets and tem- plate aside.
(5)Drill 1/16" diameter starter holes.
(7)Remove template from trim brackets and discard. Set brackets and screws aside to be installed later in the process.
Note: DO NOT attach trim brackets at this time. Continue to Step 5: Installing the Ducts.
