All Installation Instructions for Kenmore Microwave 66561619100

Replace charcoal filters in microwave - vents inside.

Remove the screws holding the bottom vent plate to the upper unit, using a Phillips head screwdriver. Loosen a front screw last, but don't remove it. While supporting the plate in one hand, unscrew the final screw with the other. Lower the front of the bottom plate - tabs in the rear will prevent the plate from falling out. Bend the outer tabs holding the old filters in place, to allow them to be slid out. Insert the new filters & bend the tabs back into locking position. Raise the bottom plate and finger tighten a front screw. Replace and tighten all screws. This is also a simple way to remove/clean/replace the mesh filters. I've pulled the D-rings off trying to slide them out from below.

The small connector flaps broke off so the grille wasn't attached.

With a phillips head screwdriver I removed the screws, which were screwed to the then non-existent grille, at the top of the grille holder, GENTLY popped the new grill into place and replaced the screws. It took about five minutes. As a housewife, I feel that doing these little repair jobs around the house saves my husband time and aggravation. It was all very simple, and I got the ordered part in two days. Fabulous!
