Installation Instructions D. ALIGNING THE WALL PLATE Hole A Hole C Centerline Notches Draw a Vertical Line on Wall from Center of Top Cabinet Hole B CAUTION Wear gloves to avoid cutting fingers on sharp edges. Area E Hole D 1 Draw a vertical line on the wall at the center of the 30s wide space. 2 Use the mounting plate as the template for the rear wall. Place the mounting plate on the wall, making sure that the tabs are touching the bottom of the cabinet or the level line drawn in Step C for cabinets with front overhang. Line up the notch and centerline on the bottom of the mounting plate to the centerline on the wall. 3 While holding the mounting plate with one hand, draw circles on the wall at holes A, B, C and D (see illustration above/actual plate marked with arrows). Four holes must be used for mounting. NOTE: Holes C and D are inside area E. If neither C nor D is in a stud, find a stud somewhere in area E and draw a fifth circle to line up with the stud. It is important to use at least one wood screw mounted firmly in a stud to support the weight of the microwave. Set the mounting plate aside. WARNING Risk of electric shock. Can cause injury or death. Take care to not drill into electrical wiring inside walls or cabinets. 4 Drill holes on the circles. If there is a stud, drill a 3ø16s hole for wood screws. For holes that don't line up with a stud, drill a 5ø8s hole for toggle bolts. Drill two 5/8" holes for toggle screws. NOTE: DO NOT MOUNT THE PLATE AT THIS TIME. 10
