INSTALLATION

Before Installing

Proper Location and Dimensions

CAUTION

• The cabinet base platform must be able to 

support 190 lbs (86 kg) for single built-in oven, 

325 lbs (147 kg) for double built-in oven. If the 

cabinet does not have a solid bottom, two braces 

or runners must be installed level with the 

bottom of the cutout to support the weight of 

the appliance. Make sure the base is level and 

the front of the cabinet is square. If the cabinet 

base is not level, the oven racks will tend to slide 

out when opening the door.

• Make sure the cabinets and wall coverings 

around the oven can withstand the temperature 

(up to 194 ૢ (90 ૟)) generated by the oven. 

Discoloration, delamination or melting may 

occur.

• Kitchen cabinets in contact with the oven must 

be heat resistant up to 194°F (90°C), and fronts 

of nearby units up to at least 158°F (70°C).

• DO NOT remove spacers 

c

 on the side walls of 

the built-in oven. These spacers center the oven 

in the space provided.The oven must be 

centered to prevent excess heat buildup that 

may result in heat damage or fire.

• The information in this manual should be 

followed exactly. Failure to do so could result in 

fire or electrical shock, causing property 

damage, personal injury or death.

• DO NOT put any weight on the oven door. Never 

allow anyone to climb, sit, stand or hang on the 

oven door. The oven could be tipped and injury 

might result from contact with hot food or the 

oven itself.

• DO NOT block the oven air exhaust located at 

the bottom of the oven. Blocking the exhaust 

may cause cabinet damage and product 

malfunction.

NOTE

• If marks, blemishes or the cutout opening are 

visible above the installed appliance, it may be 

necessary to add wood shims under the runners 

and front trim until the marks or opening are 

covered.

• If the cabinet does not have a front frame and 

the sides are less than 3/4” (1.9 cm) thick, shim 

both sides equally to establish the cutout width.

• The junction box 

a

 must be flush with the 

conduit opening 

b

 of the cabinet as shown.

• Allow at least a 23” clearance for the door depth 

when it is open.

• Do not remove the gliding racks from the base 

packing. Gliding racks are attached separately to 

the top and bottom of the oven.
