This appliance must be supplied with the proper voltage and frequency, and connected to an individual, properly grounded branch circuit, protected by a circuit breaker or fuse having amperage as noted on rating plate. (Rating plate is located on the inside wall of the microwave oven.) • Be sure the oven is securely installed in a cabinet that is firmly attached to the house structure. Weight on the oven door could cause the oven to tip and result in injury. Never allow anyone to climb, sit, stand or hang on the oven door. • Make sure the cabinets and wall coverings around the oven can withstand the temperatures (up to 200°F) generated by the oven. WARNING: We recommend you have the electrical wiring and hookup of your oven connected by a qualified electrician. After installation, have the electrician show you where your main oven disconnect is located. The electrical Check with your local utilities for electrical codes which apply in your area. Failure to wire your oven according to governing codes could result in a hazardous condition. If there are no local codes, your oven must be wired and fused to meet the requirements of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-Latest Edition. You can get a copy by writing: power to the oven supply line must be shut off while line connections are being made. Failure to do so could result in serious injury or death. National Fire Protection Association Batterymarch Park Quincy, MA 02269 Effective January 1,1996, the National Electrical Code requires that new, but not existing, construction utilize a four-conductor connection to an electric oven. When installing an electric oven in new construction, a mobile home, recreational vehicle or an area where local codes prohibit grounding through the neutral conductor, follow the instructions in the section on NEW CONSTRUCTION AND FOUR-CONDUCTOR BRANCH CIRCUIT CONNECTION. You must use a three-wire, single-phase A.C. 208Y/120 Volt or 240/120 Volt, 60 hertz electrical system. If you connect to aluminum wiring, properly installed connectors approved for use with aluminum wiring must be used. 2 Installation Instructions Pre-lnstallation Checklist Remove packaging materials. Check inside microwave, behind hinges and under false bottom. Remove labels on the outside of the door, plastic on trims and panel and all tape around oven. Door removal is not a requirement for installation of the product, but is an added convenience. To remove the door: Open the oven door as far as it will go. Push both hinge _= Hinge Unlocked locks down toward _!_i__'_l_, Position the door frame, Hinge"_ to the unlocked s_ot _,d position. This may require a flat blade Hinge screwdriver. Arm DO NOT LIFT THE DOOR BY THE HANDLE! Oven Racks Broiler Pan and Grid Place hands on both sides of the door, and close the oven door to the removal position. This is half way between the broil stop and fully closed. Pack Literature Open oven door and remove literature pack, broiler pan and grid, and oven racks. Open microwave door and remove shelves and turntable package. Lift door up and out until the hinge arms clear the slots. Remove Installation Instructions from literature pack and read them carefully before you begin. Be sure to place all literature, Owner's Manual, Installations, etc. in a safe place for future reference. Hinge Clears Slot NOTE: The oven door is very heavy. Be sure you have a firm grip before lifting the oven door off the hinges. Use caution once the door is removed. Do not lay the door on its handle. This could cause dents or scratches. 3 (Continued on following page) Installation Instructions I_ Pre-lnstallation Checklist cont. [_ Remove the bottom trim from the top of the oven.

Installation Instructions Electrical Connections ATTENTION Turn off the circuit breaker or remove fuses to the oven branch circuit. INSTALLER All electric wall ovens must be hard wired (direct wired) into an approved junction box. A plug and receptacle is NOT permitted on these products. With the oven supported on a table or platform in front of the cabinet opening, connect the flexible conduit to the electrical junction box as shown below. Position the conduit in such a manner that it will lie on top of the oven in a natural loop when the oven is installed. You will need to purchase an appropriate strain relief clamp to complete the connection of the conduit to the junction box. DO NOT shorten the flexible conduit. The conduit strain relief clamp must be securely attached to the junction box and the flexible conduit must be securely attached to the clamp. If the flexible conduit will not fit within the clamp, do not install the oven until a clamp of the proper size is obtained. 20'L - NOTE TO ELECTRICIAN: The 3 power leads supplied with this appliance are UL recognized for connection to heavier gauge household wiring. The insulation of these 3 leads is rated at temperatures much higher than the temperature rating of household wiring. The current carrying capacity of the conductor is governed by the wire gauge and the temperature rating of the insulation around the wire. Junction Box Location WARNING: Improper connection of aluminum house wiring to copper leads can result in an electrical hazard or fire. Use only connectors designed for joining copper to aluminum and follow the manufacturer's recommended procedure closely.

Check that the bottom trim is installed properly (see page 9). film, if present, [_ Check to be sure the mounting screws are installed and flush with the side trim (see page 8). Operation Checklist Remove all items from the inside of the oven. NOTE TO ELECTRICIAN: The power leads supplied with this appliance are UL recognized for connections to larger gauge household wiring. The insulation of these leads is rated at temperatures much higher than the temperature rating of household wiring. The current carrying capacity of a conductor is governed by the wire gauge and also the temperature rating of the insulation around the wire. Check that conduit is securely connected to the junction box. Turn on the power to the oven. (Refer to your Owner's Manual.) Verify that the bake and broil units, and all cooking functions operate properly. Check that the circuit breaker is not tripped nor the house fuse blown. NOTE: ALUMINUM See your Owner's Manual for troubleshooting list. A. WARNING: WIRING IMPROPER CONNECTION OF ALUMINUM HOUSE WIRING TO THE COPPER LEADS CAN RESULT IN AN ELECTRICAL HAZARD OR FIRE. a. Splice copper wires to aluminum wiring using special connectors designed and UL approved for joining copper to aluminum, and follow the manufacturer's recommended connector procedure closely. NOTE: Wire used, location and enclosure of splices, etc., must conform to good wiring practice and local codes. 11 NOTES 12
