OVER THE RANGE MICROWAVE OVEN/HOOD SYSTEM
I
NSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Please read all instructions thoroughly before installing the Microwave Oven/Hood System. Two people are
recommended to install this product.
If a new electrical outlet is required, its installation should be completed by a qualified electrician before the
Microwave Oven/Hood is installed. See 3 ELECTRICAL GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS on page 2.
12"
1 MOUNTING SPACE
15.5"
This Microwave Oven/Hood requires a mounting space on a wall
as shown in Figure 1.
30"
If the space between the wall cabinets is greater than 30-inches
(36-inches or 42-inches), a Filler Panel Kit may be used to fill the
gap between the Microwave Oven/Hood system and wall cabi-
nets. The Filler Panel Kit is sold as an optional accessory; each
kit contains two 3-inch panels. The Filler Panel Kit should be
installed before the Microwave Oven/Hood is installed.
30" or more
from cooking
surface
At least 2"
Backsplash
For proper installation and servicing, a 2-inch space is necessary
between the top of the range backsplash and the bottom of the
Microwave Oven/Hood system.
66" or
more from
floor
2 WALL CONSTRUCTION
This Microwave Oven/Hood should be mounted against and sup-
ported by a flat vertical wall. The wall must be flat for proper
installation. If the wall is not flat, use spacers to fill in the gaps.
Wall construction should be a minimum of 2" x 4" wood studding
and 3/8" or more thick dry wall or plaster/lath. The mounting sur-
faces must be capable of supporting weight of 110 pounds—the
oven and contents—AND the weight of all items which would nor-
mally be stored in the top cabinet above the unit.
Figure 1
The unit should be attached to a minimum of one 2" x 4" wall stud.
2"x 4" Wood Studs
16" or 24"
To find the location of the studs, one of the following methods may
be used:
A. Use a stud finder, a magnetic device which locates the nails in
the stud.
B. Use a hammer to tap lightly across the mounting surface to find
a solid sound. This will indicate stud location.
3/8" Dry Wall
or Plaster/lath
The center of the stud can be located by probing the wall with a
small nail to find the edges of the stud and then placing a mark
halfway between the edges. The center of any adjacent studs will
normally be 16" or 24" to either side of this mark.
Figure 2
NOTE: In the event that the unit will be unable to be supported by any stud, it will be necessary to use spe-
cial care in the placement of the toggle bolts and top cabinet screws. See Wall Template for details. The top
cabinet should be tested to ensure it is securely attached to the wall. Place extra weight up to 110 pounds
inside the top cabinet to test the support.

The unit is shipped assembled for recirculating.
NOTE:
1. The Exhaust Damper Assembly is not required for recir-
culating operation.
2. The Charcoal Filter should be replaced every 6 to 12
months, depending on use.
3. The Charcoal Filter RK-220 is also sold as an accesso-
ry. See Operation Manual for ordering information.

B. HORIZONTAL EXHAUST — Outside Ventilation
1. Remove and save the 4 screws from Fan Cover
Bracket. Remove Fan Cover Bracket by sliding it in the
opposite direction of the arrow on the Fan Cover
Bracket, as shown in Figure 8.
2. Lift Hood Fan Unit carefully and slip wires out of cavity.
See Figure 9.
CAUTION: Do not pull or stretch hood fan wiring.
3. Rotate the Hood Fan Unit 180˚ so that the fan blade
openings are facing the back of the oven. Note, you will
need to lift the wire over the hood fan unit so the wire will
clear. See Figure 10 (A). Replace Hood Fan Unit into the
oven. Be careful not to pinch the wire and the Hood Fan
Unit. See Figure 10 (B).
Figure 9
4. Put the wire back into the cavity.

10 OVEN INSTALLATION
THIS OVEN CANNOT BE PROPERLY INSTALLED WITHOUT REFERRING TO THE MOUNTING
INSTRUCTIONS FOUND ON BOTH TEMPLATES.
READ AND FOLLOW MOUNTING INFORMATION ON BOTH TOP CABINET AND WALL TEMPLATES.
MOUNTING PLATE
1. Separate 4 Toggle Bolts 2, packed in the INSTALLATION HARDWARE, from the Toggle Nuts.
2. Use Wood Screws 1 to attach Mounting Plate to the stud or studs. Use Toggle Bolts to attach Mounting
Plate through the holes at A, B, C and D; UNLESS THOSE HOLES ARE LOCATED ON THE STUD. Insert
one Toggle Bolt into A, B, C and D where appropriate (these correspond to the holes of the Wall Template)
and put the Toggle Nuts onto the Toggle Bolts. Figure 18.
Refer to instructions in Wall Template.
3. Position the Mounting Plate with the Toggle Bolts attached at the wall location and insert Toggle Nuts and
Bolts through the holes in the wall with the Toggle Nuts closed. Figure 19. Use Wood Screws 1 to attach
the Mounting Plate to studs.
NOTE: Before insertion, be sure you leave a space more than the thickness of the wall between the Mounting
Plate and the end of each of the Toggle Nuts (in the closed position). If you do not leave enough space, the
Toggle Nut will not be able to open on the other side of the wall. Also, once a Toggle Nut opens, it cannot be
withdrawn from the hole; therefore make sure all of the Toggles are in the correct position before insertion.
4. Align the Mounting Plate carefully and hold in position while tightening Toggle Bolts. Pull Toggle Bolt toward
you and turn clockwise to tighten. Figure 20.
