5 Remove the screws from each end of the mounting plate. This plate will be used as the rear wall template and for mounting. Reinstall the screws into the holes where they were removed.

B. FINDING THE WALL STUDS

Wall Studs Center

1 Find the studs, using one of the following methods:

A. Stud finder - a magnetic device which locates nails.
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 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" (40.6 cm) or 24" (61 cm) from this mark.

3 Draw a line down the center of the studs. THE MICROWAVE MUST BE CONNECTED TO AT LEAST ONE WALL STUD.

1/4" Minimum clearance 1/4" Minimum clearance Draw a line on the back wall equal to the depth of the front overhang. 30" to Cooktop

Your cabinets may have decorative trim that interferes with the microwave installation. Remove the decorative trim to install the microwave properly and to make it level.

Use a level to make sure the cabinet bottom is level. If the cabinets have a front overhang only, with no back or side frame, install the mounting plate down the same distance as the front overhang depth. This will keep the microwave level.

1 Measure the inside depth of the front overhang.
2 Draw a horizontal line on the back wall an equal distance below the cabinet bottom as the inside depth of the front overhang.
3 For this type of installation with front overhang only, align the mounting tabs with this horizontal line, not touching the cabinet bottom as described in Step D.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR EXTERNAL EXHAUST DUCTING

NOTE: If you need to install ducts, note that the total duct length of 3^1/4 " x 10" (8.2 x 25.4 cm) rectangular or 5" (12.7 cm) diameter/6" (15.2 cm) diameter round duct should not exceed 140 equivalent feet (42.7 m). Outside ventilation requires an EXTERNAL 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. Also, make sure dampers swing freely and nothing is blocking the ducts.

Exhaust connection:

The exhaust adaptor has been designed to mate with a standard 3^1/4 " x 10" (8.2 x 25.4 cm) rectangular duct. If a round duct is required, a rectangular-to-round transition adaptor must be used. A 5" (12.7cm)/6" (15.2cm) diameter duct is acceptable to use.

Maximum duct length:

For satisfactory air movement, the total duct length of 314 " x 10" (8.2 x 25.4 cm) rectangular or 5" (12.7 cm) diameter/6" (15.2 cm) diameter round duct should not exceed 140 equivalent feet (42.7 m).

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 approximate feet of equivalent length of some typical ducts.

DUCT PIECES LENGTH x USED = LENGTH		EQUIVALENT NUMBER EQUIVA LENT
	Transition Adaptor*	5 Ft. (1.5 m) x( )=	Ft. or mRe
	Wall Cap 40 Ft. (12.2 m)	x( )=	Ft. or m
	90° Elbow 10 Ft. (3 m)	x( )=	Ft. or m
	45° Elbow 5 Ft. (1.5 m)	x( )=	Ft. or m
	90° Elbow 25 Ft. (7.6 m)	x( )=	Ft. or m
	45° Elbow 5 Ft. (1.5 m)	x( )=	Ft. or m

Total Ductwork = Ft. or m

* IMPORTANT : If a rectangular-to-round transition adaptor is used, the bottom corners of the damper will have to be cut to fit, using the tin snips, in order to allow free movement of the damper.

Equivalent lengths of duct pieces are based on actual tests and reflect requirements for good venting performance with any vent hood.
