Voltage Rating – 120V / 60 Hz / 15 Amps
Connected Load (kW Rating) @ 120 Volts = 1.71 kW 
(For use on adequately wired 120V, dedicated circuit having 2-wire

Always consult local and /or national electric codes.
Grounded outlet should be located in cabinet above, with hole in base 
to route power cord. Carefully follow top template instructions for power
cord clearance when installing beneath smooth, flat cabinets.
Microwave’s ventilation system is convertible, designed for two types 
of exhaust – outside, using either vertical or horizontal ducting; or
recirculating, requiring no ducting. 
For safe and proper installation, microwave MUST be mounted to 
BOTH a top cabinet AND a wall, and connected to at least one wall stud.
Can NOT be installed in island or peninsula cabinet arrangements.
Cabinet bottom MUST be level to insure proper installation.
Cabinet MUST be capable of supporting a total load of 110 lbs.

below recessed bottom shelf.
Minimum distance of 30" required from cooking surface to bottom edge
of top cabinet.
Minimum distance of 66" required from floor to top of microwave.
Opening between cabinets MUST be 30" wide and free of obstructions.
For openings up to 36" wide, order optional 36" Filler Panel Kit to fill in
gap between unit and cabinets.
Allow 26" minimum clearance for 90° door swing.
Ducted Option Specifications
For outside ventilation only.
Exhaust duct adapter will be needed for outside ventilation, to mate 
with standard 3-1/4" x 10" rectangular duct. If round duct required,
rectangular-to-round transition adapter will be needed with no less than
6" diameter.
For most efficient airflow exhaust, use a straight run or as few elbows 
as possible with a maximum duct length of 3-1/4" x 10" rectangular or 
6" diameter round duct, not to exceed 140 equivalent feet.
For horizontal installation, be sure to allow enough space between wall
studs to accommodate exhaust.
Refer to web for detailed duct preparation instructions.

If ducting to outside is not an option, ventilation system can be converted
to ductless to recirculate air inside.
Refer to web for detailed convertible ventilation installation instructions.

on the web at electroluxappliances.com for detailed instructions.
