NOTE: IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO
READ AND FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS
IN THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH THIS
REAR WALL TEMPLATE.
This Rear Wall Template serves to position the bottom
4"
mounting plate and to locate the horizontal exhaust
outlet.
1. Use a level to check that the template is positioned
accurately.
2. Locate and mark at least one stud on the left or
right side of the centerline.
It is important to use at least one wood
screw mounted firmly in a stud to support the weight
of the microwave. Mark two additional, evenly spaced
locations for the supplied toggle bolts.
3. Drill holes in the marked locations. Where there is
a stud, drill a 3/16" hole for wood screws. For holes
that do not line up with a stud, drill 5/8" holes for
toggle bolts.
DO NOT INSTALL THE MOUNTING PLATE
AT THIS TIME.
4. Remove the template from the rear wall.
