Microwave oven must be connected to the proper electrical
voltage and frequency as specified on the model/serial/rating
plate. The model/serial/rating plate is located underneath the
control panel along the oven vent.
The microwave oven rated 120/240 V, 20 A, has
4 wires (L1, L2, N, and G) in the flex conduit, and should
be connected to a 20 A maximum-rated circuit, overcurrent
protected on both the L1 and L2 circuits.
A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended.
Flexible cable from the microwave oven should be
connected directly to the junction box.
Do not cut the conduit. The length of conduit provided is for
serviceability of the microwave oven.
A UL listed or CSA approved conduit connector must be
provided.
If the house has aluminum wiring, follow the procedure
below:
Connect the aluminum wiring using special connectors
and/or tools designed and UL listed for joining copper to
aluminum.
Follow the electrical connector manufacturer’s recommended
procedure. Aluminum/copper connection must conform with
local codes and industry accepted wiring practices.

Assemble Spacer Kit
1.
Attach the bottom vent to spacer bars using four
3/8" (9.5 mm) hex-head washer screws.
NOTE:
Spacer bar flanges should be facing out.
Install Spacer Kit
1.
Center assembled microwave oven spacer kit against lower
front edge of the cabinet cutout.
2.
