Built-In Wall Installation
The Wolf 24” microwave can be set into a built-in wall
installation with the use of a 30” trim kit, available from
a Wolf dealer or distributor.
The trim kit consists of a ductwork assembly, duct
mounting screws, a decorative trim assembly and trim
mounting screws. (See Figure 2-3)
The ductwork assembly is placed on the platform of the
rough-in opening and secured with screws. The
microwave oven is first plugged into the electrical
receptacle, then set on top of the ductwork assembly
with the feet of the oven sitting in detents on the rails.
The decorative trim is then attached to the wall around
the front of the microwave oven. (See Figure 2-4)
NOTE:Because of the decorative trim design, the
ductwork assembly and microwave oven need to be
positioned toward the right side of the rough-in opening.
For complete built-in installation instructions, refer to the
installation guide and the instructions that accompany
the trim kit.
