INSTRUCTIONS

This Built-in Microwave Hood should be mounted against 
and supported by a flat vertical wall. The wall must be 
flat for proper installation. If the wall is not flat, use 
spacers to fill in the gaps. Wall construction should be 
a minimum of 2” x 4” wood studding and 3/8” or more 
thick dry wall or plaster/lath. The mounting surfaces must 
be capable of supporting a weight of 110 pounds—the 
oven and contents—AND the weight of all items which 
would normally be stored in the top cabinet above the 
unit. The unit should be attached to a minimum of one 
2” x 4” wall stud.

To find the location of the studs, one of the following 
methods may be used:

•  Use a stud finder, a magnetic device which locates the 

nails in the stud.

•  Use a hammer to tap lightly across the mounting 

surface to find a solid sound. This will indicate stud 
location. 

The center of the stud can be located by probing the 
wall with a small nail to find the edges of the stud and 
then placing a mark halfway between the edges. The 
center of any adjacent studs will normally be 16” or 24” 
to either side of this mark.

This appliance must be grounded. This oven 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 in accordance with the 
National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. 
In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding 
reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape 
wire for the electric current.

The oven is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug. DO 
NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CUT OR REMOVE 
THE GROUNDING PIN FROM THE PLUG.

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.

The Power Supply Cord and plug must be connected to 
a separate 120 Volt AC, 60 Hz, 15 Amp, or more branch 
circuit, single grounded receptacle. The receptacle 
should be located inside the cabinet directly above the 
Built-in Microwave Hood mounting location as shown in 
figure 2.

nOtE:
•  If you have any questions about the grounding or 

electrical instructions, consult a qualified electrician 
or serviceperson.

•  Neither Viking Range, LLC nor the dealer can accept 

any liability for damage to the oven or personal injury 
resulting from failure to observe the correct electrical 
connection procedures.
