Figures 1 and 2 contain many Microwave Drawer measurements for reference when planning the drawer’s location. Your oven can be built into a cabinet or wall as a stand-alone unit. It can also be installed under gas or electric wall ovens, the SuperSteam oven model SSC2489GS or under the cooktop models SCH2443GB and SCR2442FB. Can also be installed using an electrical outlet in an adjacent cabinet within the area where the provided electrical cord can reach. The power cord access hole in the cabinet should be a minimum 11/2″ diameter hole and deburred of all sharp edges.

IMPORTANT
Always allow sufficient power cord length to the electrical outlet to prevent tension. Always check electrical codes for requirements. Figure 3 represents a typical standard cabinet. If installed in custom cabinets with extended countertops, take into account visibility and access to controls. See Figure 4.

ANTI-TIP BLOCK NORMAL INSTALLATION STEPS

To reduce the risk of tipping the drawer, the Anti-Tip block must be properly installed and located 1413/16 inches above the floor on which the Microwave Drawer will sit. The 6-inch Anti-Tip block must be provided by the installer. See Figure 1. The Anti-Tip block prevents serious injury that might result from spilled hot liquids. If the Microwave Drawer is ever moved to a different location, the Anti-Tip block must also be moved and installed. When installed to the wall, make sure that the screws completely penetrate the drywall and are secured in wood or metal so that the block is stable. When fastening, be sure that the screws do not penetrate electrical wiring or plumbing.

ELECTRICAL OUTLET
The electrical requirements are a 120 volt 60 Hz, AC only, 15 amp. or more protected electrical supply. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided. The drawer is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded. Should you only have a 2-prong outlet, have a qualified electrician install a correct wall receptacle. Note: If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions, consult a qualified electrician or service person. Can also be installed using an electrical outlet in an adjacent cabinet within the area where the provided electrical cord can reach. Always check electrical codes for requirements.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. The Microwave Drawer is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded by the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or serviceman install an outlet near the appliance.

DRAWER INSTALLATION

1. Place the drawer adjacent to the wall or cabinet opening. Plug the power supply cord into the electrical outlet.
2. Carefully guide the drawer into the prepared opening. Avoid pinching the cord between the oven and the wall.
3. Slide the drawer until the mounting flange is flush with the face of the cabinet. See Figure 10.
4. Open the drawer. Using the 4 holes on the drawer as a template, pre-drill the cabinet using a 1/16″ bit. See Figure 10.
5. Secure the drawer with the 4 screws supplied. See Figure 11.

MODEL AND SERIAL NUMBER LOCATION
The nameplate includes the model and serial number. Open the Microwave Drawer fully. The label is beyond the back wall of the microwave cavity facing up from the flat surface.

CARE, CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
