STEP 4: PREPARE THE WALL AND
UPPER CABINET FOR INSTALLATION
MEASURE AND TACK / TAPE UP THE
TEMPLATES
1. Using a plumb line and (metal) measuring tape, find and
mark the vertical center line on the back wall, as
in Figure 18.
2. Find and mark one or two points where the studs are on
the wall. (Studs are normally 16 inches apart)
Then measure and mark the stud locations within the
mounting plate area on the wall.
If you cannot find a wall stud, consult a local building
contractor.
CAUTION
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO INSTALL THE MICROWAVE
OVEN IF YOU CANNOT FIND A WALL STUD.
NOTE: Be sure the minimum width is 22 inches and the
distance from the top of the microwave oven to
the cooking surface is at least 30 inches. See
Figure 4 on page 4.
Figure 18
3. Securely tape or tack the upper cabinet template to the
upper cabinet. See Figure 22.
NOTE: If the cabinets are not plumb, adjust the
mounting plate position to the cabinets.
Remember, the oven must hang level.
If the front edge of the cabinet is lower than the
back edge, adjust the mounting plate position to
be level with the cabinet front.

STEP 4: PREPARE THE WALL AND
UPPER CABINET FOR INSTALLATION
DRILL THE HOLES IN THE WALL AND UPPER CABINET.
W A R N I N G
BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN DRILLING HOLES INTO THE WALL.
Electrical wires could be concealed behind the wall covering
and if the drill hits them you could get an electric shock.
1. Find the points on the mounting plate labeled A, B, C and D. Drill a 3/16" diameter hole at any points that
are over a wall stud. Drill a 3/4" diameter hole at any points over drywall.
2. Locate the wall stud closest to the center of hole on the mounting plate. Drill 3/16" holes into the wall stud
in each of the areas. If a wall stud is not located within these areas, drill 3/4" diameter holes nearest to the
center of the areas as possible.
If there is not a wall stud within the holed areas or behind points marked A, B, C, and D, DO NOT
install microwave oven. (Consult building inspector.) There must be at least one stud in those
areas.
3. Cut or drill a 2" diameter hole at the marked area, power supply cord hole (M) on the upper cabinet
template. If the upper cabinet is metal, you will need to cover the edge of the hole with the power supply
cord bushing (not included) to prevent damage to the cord from the rough metal edge.
YOU MUST COVER THE EDGE OF THE POWER SUPPLY CORD HOLE
IN A METAL CABINET WITH THE
POWER SUPPLY CORD BUSHING.
FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT
IN DAMAGE TO THE CORD AND
ELECTRIC SHOCK.
W A R N I N G
4. Cut out the venting areas (with the saber saw):
• ROOF-VENTED: cut out the shaded area marked E on
the upper cabinet template.
• WALL-VENTED: cut out the marked area on the wall.
See Figure 19.
• ROOM-VENTED: Need not make any rectangular hole
(for ventilation) on the upper cabinet and wall.
