Step 2: Preparing the Cabinet  
Your microwave oven can be installed into a  
cabinet or wall by itself or above any of the  
following Thermador wall ovens: C271, C301,  
CM301, S301, SC301. Or, Thermador Warming  
Drawers WD27 and WD30 (see Figures 2a and  
2b).  
The cabinet cutout dimensions are shown in  
Figure 1.  
It is a good practice when the microwave oven is  
installed at the end of a cabinet run, adjacent to a  
perpendicular wall or cabinet door, to allow at least  
1/2" (12.7 mm) space between the side of the trim  
and wall or door.  
Outlet can be located anywhere within the shaded  
area as indicated in Figure 1.

Step 3: Preparing the Electric  
The Thermador microwave oven is equipped with a grounded cord. The wall receptacle must be  
installed and grounded in accordance with the national electrical code. It can be installed anywhere in  
the shaded area in Figure 1 (previous page). Electrical connections and grounding must comply with all  
applicable local codes.  
The electrical requirements for a separate circuit serving only this microwave oven are: 120V, 60Hz,  
15Amp.  
WARNING: Improper grounding can result in risk of electric shock.  
Step 4: Preparing the Trim Kit  
(1) Attach the two vertical side trim brackets to the template as shown in Figure 3. Use two (2) #8 x  
3/8, Type B screws on each side.  
(2) Mark the center line on bottom edge of the cutout.  
(3) Hold template in front of cabinet cutout. Line up the bottom of the template with the bottom of the  
cutout. Align the template notch with the centerline of the cutout.  
(4) Mark the location of the three holes in the trim brackets on both sides. Set brackets and tem-  
plate aside.  
(5) Drill 1/16" diameter starter holes.  
(7) Remove template from trim brackets and discard. Set brackets and screws aside to be installed  
later in the process.  
Note: DO NOT attach trim brackets at this time. Continue to Step 5: Installing the Ducts.

Step 5: Installing The Ducts  
4. Attach base pan to bottom of microwave at  
leg holes. Fasten with two (2) 7/16" lag bolts.  
Install one bolt through front right leg hole  
and one through back left hole. Return mi-  
crowave to right-side-up position.  
1.  
Remove and discard the protective plastic  
film from the 4 ducts.  
CAUTION  
The ducts have sharp edges. Be careful when  
handling.  
2. Loosen the outer case screw near the vent  
on left side of the microwave.  
3.  
Position side duct on left side of oven. Slide duct  
under loosened outer case duct screw and tighten.  
2. Set microwave upside down in stable loca-  
tion.  
4.  
Position upper exhaust duct on top left side (hinge  
side) of oven. The left side will overlap the side  
duct. Fasten upper exhaust duct and side duct  
to microwave using two (2) #8 x 3/8" Type B  
screws.  
3. Use pliers to remove and discard all four (4)  
black plastic feet from bottom of microwave.  
5.  
6.  
Wrap grommet around electrical cord.  
Thread grommet and electrical cord in the  
receiving hole provided in the rear intake duct.  
7.  
6.  
Attach rear intake duct to the rear of the oven.  
Fasten with one (1) #8 x 3/8" Type B screw.  
Position top intake duct on top side of oven. Slide  
the back edges under the rear intake duct. Fasten  
top intake duct and rear intake duct to microwave  
using four (4) #8 x 3/8" Type B screws.  
7.  
Use tape provided to cover all duct seams. Verify  
that all seams are tightly sealed.

Step 6: Completing the Installation  
Caution: The microwave oven is heavy. Al-  
ways use at least two people to lift the unit.  
1. Lift oven into position and rest right rear cor-  
ner in cabinet cutout.  
2. Reach past microwave on left side to insert  
electrical cord into outlet.  
3. Slide oven the rest of the way into the cabi-  
net. Position microwave in cabinet so that  
base pan center hole aligns with cabinet  
centerline. When properly installed, the front  
end of pan will be flush with the front edge  
of the shelf.  
4. Open the microwave door to access three  
holes on the base pan below the microwave.  
Drill 1/16" holes through the three (3) base  
pan holes into the cabinet cutout bottom.  
Fasten base pan to shelf with three 3 #8 x  
3/8 Type A screws.

Frame Trim  
11. Install both vertical trim brackets on the cabi-  
net using three (3) #8 x 3/8 Type A screws  
on each side. The flanges on the ends of  
the brackets should be inside the cabinet.  
12. Snap frame trim into the trim brackets  
(Figure 6). The four (4) ball studs on the  
back of the frame snap into the four (4) spring  
clips on the trim brackets. Tip: Place  
screwdriver behind spring clip to support  
bracket.  
13. Install the plastic turntable. Place in center  
of oven bottom with base in hole. Turn  
turntable clockwise until it drops into place.  
Place glass tray on top of turntable.

tions.
