2. Check that the following are level and square:
   • Front and interior opening
   • Installation opening and floor surface
   • Countertop bottom front edge

NOTE: The floor under the unit must be at the same level as the surrounding finished floor.

CAUTION
To prevent possible damage to the countertop, do not place heavy objects on countertop directly over unit.

INSTALLING THE UNIT

1. Plug the unit into the 15 amp grounded electrical outlet located within the installation opening. With power applied to the unit, check that the lighting and cooling functions operate properly. Turn off the power to the wall outlet at the circuit breaker.

2. With all surfaces in the installation opening square and level, refer to Figure 4 on page 7 and perform the following steps to level the unit:
   • At the front of the opening, measure from the floor to the bottom of the front edge of the countertop.
   • Measure from the floor surface to the top of the unit at the rear corners.
   • Adjust the unit legs so these two measurements are equal. Using an adjustable wrench or pliers, turn legs clockwise to lower the unit or counterclockwise to raise it.
   NOTE: Legs should not extend more than 3/4” from the bottom of the unit.

3. Slide the unit into position in the opening. Make sure the rear leveling legs slide under the ant-tip brackets. Push the unit into the opening until the bottom front edge of the unit is flush with the surrounding cabinetry, or until the rear legs are tight against the anti-tip brackets.

4. Shim the front of the unit so the front face is flush with the surrounding cabinetry. Adjust the front legs to support the countertop at the shimmed height. Using an adjustable wrench or pliers, turn the legs clockwise to lower the unit or counterclockwise to raise it. Countertop should be resting on top of the unit.
   NOTE: Countertop should be resting evenly on entire top of the unit. Shim if necessary to prevent damage to the countertop.

5. Check interior door openings to make sure the unit is level and square. Install shelving and/or drawers. Place the slide brackets squarely into the bracket grooves.
   When installed properly, a “click” should be heard from the slide bracket retaining tabs and the brackets should slide smoothly. The retaining tabs will stop the shelf/ drawer when pulled out to full extension.

6. Turn on the power to the wall outlet at the circuit breaker.
   NOTE: Improper shelf/drawer installation may not actuate slide mechanism.

TOE PLATE INSTALLATION
Once the unit is secured in place, install the louvered toe plate. Secure the plate by snapping the latch into the latch catch on the unit , and re-attach screws using through holes provided in the toe kick. A phillips #2 screwdriver, with a 3” long shaft will be  required. (Figure 5).

CAUTION
The toe plate must be removed to service the unit. The floor cannot interfere with removal, and the louvered sections must not be covered or obstructed. Obstructions could prevent proper air circulation, which may damage the unit.
NOTE: To achieve maximum performance, interior louver openings and fan guard openings should never be obstructed.

SHELVING/DRAWER ADJUSTMENTS

CAUTION
Completely empty shelf or drawer before removing.

1. Pull the shelf/drawer out to its furthest position. Locate the tabs in the middle of both extenders. Lift one tab up while pushing the opposite tab down, and pull shelf/drawer out (Figure 6).
2. Position each bracket separately. Grasp the middle of the bracket, pull the front end up and out, then forward to remove it.
3. Place bracket at desired location. Push the bracket rear hook into the rear mounting slot, then set front of the bracket in the front slot.
4. Repeat for other brackets.
5. Push extenders completely into brackets. Align the shelf/drawer grooves with the extenders and slide completely into the unit.
