Installation Instructions
Before you begin, 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, damage around the door or dents inside the oven or on the exterior. If there is any damage, please do not operate the unit until it has been checked by an authorized WhirlpoolSM 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 side of the unit is the heavy side. Use care when handling.) The weight of the oven is approximately 33 Ibs. (15 kg).
3. Do not block the rear air intake opening.
Blocking the air intake opening can cause damage to the oven and poor cooking results. Make sure the microwave oven legs are in place to ensure proper air flow.
Do not install the oven next to a conven- rtional surface unit or in any area where
excessive heat and steam are generated. This could damage the outside of the cabinet.
