See "Venting Design Specifications" section. Location Requirements Check the opening where the microwave oven will be installed. The location must provide: ■ Minimum installation dimensions. See "Installation Dimensions" illustration. ■ Minimum one 2" x 4" (50.8 x 101.6 mm) wood wall stud and minimum 3/8" (9.5 mm) thickness drywall or plaster/lath within cabinet opening. ■ Support for weight of 150 lbs (68 kg), which includes oven and items placed inside the oven and upper cabinet. ■ Grounded electrical outlet inside upper cabinet. See "Electrical Requirements" section. NOTES: ■ If installing the oven near a left sidewall, make sure there is at least 3" (7.6 cm) of clearance between the wall and the oven, so that the door can open fully. ■ Some cabinet and building materials are not designed to withstand the heat produced by the oven for cooking. Check with your builder or cabinet supplier to make sure that the materials used will not discolor, delaminate or sustain other damages. Special Requirements ■ For gas cooktop, we recommend that combined cooking surface rating to not exceed 50,000 BTU/hr. ■ The oven is set for recirculation mode. For external (wall or roof) venting, see "Venting Design Specifications" section. For Wall Venting Installation Only: ■ The 12" x 4" (30.5 x 10.2 cm) cutout area (see "Wall Venting Installation Only" in the "Mark Rear Wall" section) must align with the wall damper vent on the back of the oven (see "Wall Venting Installation Only" in the "Convert Oven to External Venting" section). ■ Cutout must be free of any obstructions so that the vent tube fits properly, and the damper blade opens freely and fully. For Roof Venting Installation Only: ■ If using rectangular to round transition piece, 3" (7.6 cm) clearance needs to exist above the oven so that the damper blade can open freely and fully. See "Rectangular to Round Transition" illustration in "Venting Design Specifications" section. †®TORX is a registered trademark of Textron Innovations Inc. 2
