CHECKING INSTALLATION
To check if the device is installed and engaged properly, open the
Microwave Drawer fully and gently apply medium force in the
center of the handle until movement of the appliance is detected.
Continue pressing until the Anti-Tip bracket is engaged and move-
ment stops. A small amount of movement is acceptable at the back
of the appliance top, but it should be stable and not tip once the
Anti-tip bracket is engaged. Stop pressing on the Microwave Drawer
handle and close.
To check that the unit will not slide out, open the Microwave Drawer
fully and then apply gentle outward pressure. The unit should not
slide toward you. If the unit does slide, check installation beginning
with C on page 5.
