  3. Position the bottom edge of the fl ange along the bottom edge of the backsplash line. Align the center of the backsplash with the center of the appliance. Mark each mounting hole (3 locations) with a pencil. Set panel aside.
  4.  Measure up 21 3/8” from the bottom edge of the backsplash line and draw a level line the full length of the installation space. This line represents where the mounting brackets will attach to the wall.

Install Mounting Brackets

  1. Using a stud fi under, locate the edges of the wall studs within the installation space.
  2. Mark the center of each stud and draw a line down the center of the stud.
  3. Line up the top of the wall mounting bracket along the top edge line from the “Mark Guide Lines” section.
  4.  Center a bracket along the centerline of each wall stud.
  5.  Mount each bracket to wall using two 10-12 x 2” screws per bracket (included with kit). A minimum of two mounting brackets should be installed for the 30” and 36” models. The 48” model requires three mounting brackets.
