Proper Location and Dimensions

The cabinet base platform must be able to support 190 lbs (86 kg) for a single built-in oven, 325 lbs (147 kg) for a 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.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.Measure the current cutout dimensions and compare them to the cutout dimensions shown below.
