is metal, you will need to cover the edge of the
hole with the power supply cord bushing
(supplied) to prevent damage to the cord
from the rough metal edge.

Cut out the venting areas (with the saber saw)
Roof-venting: cut out the shaded area
marked L on the upper cabinet template.
Wall-venting: cut out the shaded area
marked F on the rear wall template.
Room-venting: go to Step 5: Install the
