Installing an over-the-range ge microwave involves mounting it securely above the stovetop. The process requires careful planning, precise measurements, and the use of specialized tools. First, ensure proper ventilation by installing a vent hood above the microwave. Mark the desired location on the wall, measure, and drill pilot holes. Use lag screws or toggle bolts to mount the bracket, then lift the microwave and align it with the bracket. Secure it using the provided screws and check for levelness. Finally, connect the electrical wiring and exhaust hose, ensuring they meet safety standards.
