Note to Consumer ­ Keep these instructions for future reference. · Skill Level ­ Installation of this appliance requires basic mechanical and electrical skills. 1 MOUNTING SPACE This Microwave Oven/Hood requires a mounting space on a wall as shown in Figure 1. It is designed to be used with standard 12-inch wall cabinets. 2 WALL CONSTRUCTION This Microwave Oven/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 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 or two 2" x 3" wall studs. To find the location of the studs, one of the following methods may be used: 12" 30" 15.5" Backsplash At least 2" 30" or more from cooking surface A. Use a stud finder, a magnetic device which locates the nails in the stud. B. 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. 66" or more from floor NEED HELP?

KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS. 1 p/n 316137234 TINSEB385MRR0 Installation Instructions 3 ELECTRICAL GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS 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. WARNING - Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS The oven is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CUT OR REMOVE THE GROUNDING PIN FROM THE PLUG. 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 Microwave Oven mounting location as shown in Figure 2. NOTE: 1. If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions, consult a qualified electrician or serviceperson. 2. Neither Electrolux 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. 4 HOOD EXHAUST DUCT When the hood is vented to the outside, a hood exhaust duct is required. All ductwork must be metal; absolutely do not use plastic duct. Check that all connections are made securely. Please read the following carefully: Exhaust connection: The hood exhaust has been designed to connect to a standard 3-1/4" X 10" rectangular duct. If round duct is required, a rectangular-to-round adapter must be used. Rear exhaust: If a rear or horizontal exhaust is to be used, care should be taken to align the exhaust with the space between the studs, or wall should be prepared at the time it is constructed by leaving enough space between wall studs to accommodate exhaust. Maximum duct length: For satisfactory air movement, the total duct length of 3-1/4" X 10" rectangular or 6" diameter round duct should not exceed 140 feet. Elbows, adapters, wall caps, roof caps, etc. present additional resistance to air flow and are equivalent to a section of straight duct which is longer than their actual physical size. When calculating the total length, add the equivalent lengths of all transitions and adapters plus the length of all straight duct sections. Figure 3 shows the approximate feet of equivalent length of some typical ductwork parts. Use the values in parentheses for calculating air flow resistance equivalent, which should total less than 140 feet.

Open the bottom of the carton, bend the carton flaps back and tilt the oven over to rest on plastic foam pad. Lift carton off oven and remove all packing materials, Installation Instructions, Wall Template, Top Template, Charcoal Filter, Turntable and Turntable Support; however, DO NOT REMOVE THE WAVEGUIDE COVER, which is located on the ceiling in the oven cavity. SAVE THE CARTON AS IT MAY MAKE INSTALLATION EASIER. 2. CHECK THE OVEN. Check the oven for any damage, such as misaligned or bent door, damaged door seals and sealing surfaces, broken or loose door hinges and latches and dents inside the cavity or on the door. If there is any damage, do not operate the oven and contact your dealer or ELECTROLUX AUTHORIZED SERVICER. 3. Remove and save Screws (A) as shown in Figure 5. 4. Pull the louver away from the unit and set aside. 6 INSTALLATION HARDWARE The INSTALLATION HARDWARE (items 1 - 8) packed with the oven should contain the following: Item 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Name Wood Screw 5 X 30 mm Toggle Bolt 3/16 inch Top Cabinet Screw 5 X 60 mm Flat Washer 30 mm diameter Power Cord Hanger Grommet Tapping Screw 4 x 12 mm Exhaust Damper Assembly Charcoal Filter Quantity 6 4 2 2 1 1 4 1 1 5.

Figure 6 3 Installation Instructions 8 VENTILATION SYSTEM (PREPARING OVEN FOR INSTALLATION) This Microwave Oven/Hood is designed for adaptation to three types of hood ventilation systems. Select the type required for your installation. Recirculating -- non-vented, ductless. Follow installation procedure (A). Recirculating requires the use of the Charcoal Filter, which has been installed in the oven. Horizontal Exhaust -- outside ventilation. Follow installation procedure (B). Vertical Exhaust -- outside ventilation. Follow installation procedure (C). Fan Cover Bracket 5. Replace the Fan Cover Bracket by sliding it into the slits in the same direction as the arrow on the Fan Cover Bracket. Make sure the fan blades are visible through the rear openings in the oven before proceeding. Attach Fan Cover Bracket to unit with 3 screws, which were removed in Step 1 above. See Figure 11. The Hood Fan Unit is now rotated for horizontal exhaust operation. 6. Attach the Exhaust Damper Assembly to the back of the Mounting Plate by sliding it into the slits in the same direction as the arrow. See Figure 12. Use Tapping Screw 4 X 12 from the INSTALLATION HARDWARE and tighten into place. (A) RECIRCULATING: Non-Vented, Ductless Operation 1. The unit is shipped assembled for recirculating. 2. The Exhaust Damper Assembly is not required for recirculating exhaust. 3. Charcoal Filter, included with the unit, is required for recirculating exhaust. Attach the Charcoal Filter to the upper side of the oven by sliding into the tabs. See Figure 7. The Charcoal Filter should be replaced every 6 to 12 months, depending on use.

THE NEXT STEP IS TO READ AND FOLLOW MOUNTING INFORMATION ON BOTH TOP CABINET AND WALL TEMPLATES. NOTE: THIS OVEN SHOULD BE ATTACHED TO AT LEAST ONE WALL STUD. MOUNTING PLATE 1. Separate 4 Toggle Bolts, packed in the INSTALLATION HARDWARE, from the Toggle Nuts. 2. Use wood screws to attach mounting plate to the stud or studs. Use Toggle Bolts to attach mounting plate through the holes at A, B, C and D UNLESS THOSE HOLES ARE LOCATED ON THE STUD. Insert one Toggle Bolt into A, B, C and D where appropriate (these correspond to holes of the Wall Template) and put the Toggle Nuts onto the Toggle Bolts. Figure 14. Refer to instructions in Wall Template. 3. Position the Mounting Plate with the Toggle Bolts attached at the wall location and insert Toggle Nuts and Bolts through the holes in the wall with the Toggle Nuts closed. Figure 15. Use Wood Screws to attach the Mounting Plate to studs. NOTE: Before insertion, be sure you leave a space more than the thickness of the wall between the Mounting Plate and the end of each of the Toggle Nuts (in the closed position). If you do not leave enough space, the Toggle Nut will not be able to open on the other side of the wall. Also, once a Toggle Nut opens, it cannot be withdrawn from the hole; therefore make sure all of the Toggles are in the correct position before insertion. 4. Align the Mounting Plate carefully and hold in position while tightening Toggle Bolts. Pull Toggle Bolt toward you and turn clockwise to tighten. Figure 16.
