Installation Considerations
Wolf drawer microwave ovens can be installed in a
standard or flush inset application. A flush inset installation
requires the microwave to be recessed into the cabinet.
Refer to the illustrations on the following pages for
minimum cabinet dimensions for your specific installation.
The platform of the cabinet must be solid and level and
able to support 125 lbs (57 kg).
In standard applications, the drawer microwave oven trim
will overlap stiles and rails and will match the overlaps of
E series ovens. Refer to the chart below for overlap
dimensions.
COMBINATION INSTALLATIONS
The drawer microwave oven can be built into a cabinet by
itself or in combination with a Wolf cooktop, built-in oven
or warming drawer. Refer to the illustration on page 9 for a
typical combination installation with an E series oven and
warming drawer in a flush inset application.

Anti-Tip Blocking
INSTALL ANTI-TI BLOCKING
To reduce the risk of tipping, the drawer microwave oven
must be secured by properly installed anti-tip blocking.
The anti-tip blocking must be provided by the installer.
Dimensions will vary with the installation. When installed
to the wall, make sure that screws completely penetrate
the dry wall and are secured in wood or metal, so that the
blocking is completely stable. When fastening, be sure
that screws do not penetrate electrical wiring or plumbing.
Refer to the illustration for your specific installation on the
following pages.
The anti-tip blocking prevents serious injury that might
result from the drawer tipping forward and hot food being
spilled.
Stepping, leaning or sitting on the drawer may result in
serious injuries and can also cause damage to the
drawer microwave oven.
Do not use the microwave oven as a storage space.
This creates a potentially hazardous situation.
