2. Wall Construction
This Built-In Microwave Hood should be mounted against
and supported 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
/
" or more thick drywall or plaster/lath.

The mounting surfaces must be capable of supporting a
weight of 110 pounds—the oven and contents—AND the
weight of all items that would normally be stored in the top
cabinet above the unit. The unit should be attached to a
minimum of one 2" x 4" wall stud.
To find the location of the studs, one of the following methods
may be used:
• Use a stud finder, a magnetic device which locates the
nails in the stud.
• Use a hammer to tap lightly across the mounting surface
to find a solid sound. This will indicate stud location.
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.
16" or 24"

NOTE: In the event that the unit will be unable to be
supported by any stud, it will be necessary to use special
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.

GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. This oven is equipped
with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding
plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is
properly installed and grounded in accordance with the
National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances.
In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces
risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the
electric current.
WARNING - Improper use of the grounding plug can result
in a risk of electric shock.
The Power Supply Cord and plug must be connected to a
separate 120 Volt AC, 60 Hz, 15 Amp, or more branch
circuit, single grounded receptacle.
