under standard 24-inch wide wall cabinets.

WALL CONSTRUCTION
This Microwave Oven 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 mini-
mum of 2" x 4" wood studding and 3/8" or more thick
dry wall or plaster/lath. The mounting surfaces must be
capable of supporting weight of 110 pounds—the oven
and contents—AND the weight of all items which 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:
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.
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

Models MWOC324A1ABL/WH/SS
center of any adjacent studs will normally be 16" or 24"
to either side of this mark.

ELECTRICAL 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.
ELECTRICAL REqUIREMENTS
The electrical requirements
are a 120 volt 60 Hz, AC
only, 15 amp. or more
protected electrical supply.
It is recommended that a
separate circuit serving
only the oven be provided.
The oven is equipped with
a 3-prong grounding plug. It
must be plugged into a wall
receptacle that is properly
installed and grounded.
DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CUT OR
REMOVE THE GROUNDING PIN FROM THE PLUG.
DO NOT USE EXTENSION CORD.
If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified
electrician or serviceman install an outlet near the
appliance.
The single grounded receptacle should be located
inside the cabinet directly above the Microwave Oven
mounting location as shown in Figure 2.
