General information
This product requires a three-prong grounded outlet.
The installer must perform a ground continuity
check on the power outlet box before beginning the
installation to insure that the outlet box is properly
grounded. If not properly grounded, or if the outlet
box does not meet electrical requirements noted
(under ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS), a qualified
electrician should be employed to correct any
deficiencies.

REqUIREMENTS
Product rating is 120 volts AC, 60 Hertz, 14.5
amps and 1.7 kilowatts.This product must be
connected to a supply circuit of the proper voltage
and frequency. Wire size must conform to the
requirements of the National Electrical Code or the
prevailing local code for this kilowatt rating. The
power supply cord and plug should be brought to a
separate 15 ampere branch circuit single grounded
outlet. The outlet box should be located in the
cabinet above the microwave oven. The outlet box
and supply circuit should be installed by a qualified
electrician and conform to the National Electrical
Code or the prevailing local code.

General information
NOTE: If you need to install ducts, note that the total
duct length of 3 ¼˝ x 10˝ rectangular or 6˝ diameter
round duct should not exceed 140 equivalent feet.
Outside ventilation requires a HOOD EXHAUST DUCT.
Read the following carefully.
NOTE: It is important that venting be installed using
the most direct route and with as few elbows as
possible. This ensures clear venting of exhaust and
helps prevent blockages.
The hood exhaust has been designed to mate with a
standard 3 ¼˝ x 10˝ rectangular duct.
If a round duct is required, a rectangular-to-round
transition adaptor must be used. Do not use less
than a 6˝ diameter duct.
For satisfactory air movement, the total duct length of
3 ¼˝ x 10˝ rectangular or 6˝ diameter round duct should
not exceed 140 equivalent feet.
Elbows, transitions, wall and roof
caps, etc., present additional resistance to airflow
and are equivalent to a section of straight duct which is
longer than their actual physical size. When calculating
the total duct length, add the equivalent lengths of all
transitions and adaptors plus the length of all straight
duct sections. The chart below shows you how to
calculate total equivalent ductwork length using the
equivalent length in feet of some typical ducts.

1. Find the studs using one of the following
methods:
A. Stud finder–a magnetic device which locates
nails.
OR
B. Use a hammer to tap lightly across the
mounting surface to find a solid sound. This
will indicate a stud location.
2. After locating the stud(s), find the stud’s center
by probing the wall with a small nail to find the
edges of the stud. Then, place a mark halfway
between the edges. The center of any adjacent
studs should be 16˝ or 24˝ from this mark.
3. Draw a line down the center of the studs.

PROPER DAMPER OPERATION
The exhaust Adaptor and Damper are
shipped assembled and attached to
the filler-upper.
1. Slide the exhaust adaptor as shown in the
diagram above.
2. Make sure tape securing the damper is removed
and damper pivots easily before you mount the
microwave.
: You will need to make adjustments to
assure proper alignment with your house exhaust
duct after the microwave is installed.

After you have installed the microwave, you will
need to open the top cabinet and adjust the exhaust

save them for possible future use.
3. Remove the screw that holds the blower motor
and carefully pull out the blower unit. The wires

place.
4. Roll the blower unit 90 ° so that the fan blade
openings are facing toward the front of the
