Installation Instructions

Before you begin operating the oven, carefully read the following instructions.

Installing your microwave oven

1.Empty the microwave oven and clean inside it with a soft, damp cloth. Check for damage such as misaligned door, dam- age around the door, or dents inside the oven or on the exterior. If there is any damage, do not operate the unit until it has been checked by an authorized Whirlpoor service technician and any repairs made.

2.Put the oven on a cart, counter, table, or shelf that is strong enough to hold the oven and the food and utensils you put in it. (The control slde of the unit is the heavy side. Use care when handling.)

The weight of the oven is approximately 58 Ibs (26.10 kg). The microwave oven should be at a temperature above 50°F (10°C) for proper operation.

Injury and Product Damage Hazard

l Do not block the exhaust vents or rear air intake openings. Allow a few inches of space at back of oven where intake openings are located. Blocking the air intake openings and exhaust vents can cause damage to the oven and poor cooking results. Make sure the micro- wave oven legs are in place to ensure proper airflow.

l Do not install the oven next to or over a heat source (for example, a cooktop or range) without a UL approved trim kit or without being in a UL approved built-in configuration. Also, do not install oven in any area where excessive heat and steam are generated. This could cause a fire, electrical shock, excessive exposure to microwave energy, other personal injury or damage to the outside of the cabinet.

You can build your microwave-convection oven into a wall or cabinet by using one of the trim kits listed on page 15.
