Installation Considerations 4
Before You Start
•
Proper installation is the responsibility of the installer.
Product failure due to improper installation is not
covered under the Wolf warranty. Refer to the warming
drawer use & care guide for warranty details.
• Warranty service must be performed by a Wolf author-
ized service center. Wolf is not responsible for service
required to correct a faulty installation.
• Model WWD30 must be installed with a Wolf stainless
steel or integrated drawer front. Make sure you have
the accessory drawer front called for in your installa-
tion. Specific installation instructions are included with
the drawer front.
• Make sure cabinetry meets the minimum dimension
requirements for your specific installation.
• Check with local utilities for electrical codes that apply
in your area. Local codes vary. Installation, electrical
connections and grounding must comply with applica-
ble codes. In the absence of local codes, the drawer
should be installed in accordance with National Electri-
cal Code ANSI/NFPA 70-1990 or latest edition.
• This appliance must be properly grounded. Refer to
electrical requirements on page 13.
• Make sure you have the tools and materials necessary
for proper installation.
TOOLS AND MATERIALS REQUIRED
• Minimum
3
/4" (19) thick lumber for the solid platform
that supports the warming drawer—must be able to
support 200 lbs (91 kg)
• Wood screws and hardware to install the platform
• 2" x 2" or 2" x 4" lumber for anti-tip block
• Power saw
• Level
• Drill and
1
/1
6
" bit,
1
/2" bit also for integrated drawer
front application
• Phillips screwdriver
• 2 wood screws (provided)
• Wood cleats (optional)
Installation Considerations 5

Installation Considerations
MODEL WWD30
• Model WWD30 must be installed with a Wolf stainless
steel or integrated drawer front. Specific installation
instructions are included with the drawer front.
• The warming drawer platform must be able to support
200 lbs (91 kg).
• The warming drawer platform must be a minimum of
1" (25) above the toe kick to allow for the overlap of the
warming drawer trim.
• For undercounter installations, 23
1
/2" (597) from the
bottom of the warming drawer opening to the floor is
typical.
COMBINATION INSTALLATIONS
• Model WWD30 may be installed in combination with a
Wolf built-in oven and/or microwave. Additional clear-
ance between warming drawer and oven openings may
be required. To allow the warming drawer trim and the
oven trim to meet, a
7
/8" (22) platform may be used to
separate the two openings. This will act as the support
platform for the oven and the anti-tip device for the
warming drawer. An anti-tip block may be installed at
the rear of the cabinet in place of the platform. If the
warming drawer is installed above an oven, a
7
/8" (22)
platform is required to allow for clearance of overlaps.
• Model WWD30 may be installed below a Wolf cooktop
or sealed burner rangetop. Allow enough room for gas
and electrical connections for the cooktop.
• Model WWD30 may be installed next to or above
another Wolf warming drawer.
IMPORTANT NOTE: For combination installations, refer to
installation instructions provided with the other Wolf
products for additional specifications.

WWD30 Drawer Front Options
IMPORTANT NOTE: M
odel WWD30 must be installed with
a Wolf stainless steel or integrated drawer front.
When installing a Wolf warming drawer in combination
with an L Series built-in oven, Wolf recommends using the
L Series drawer front with tubular handle. For all other
warming drawer installations, a 1-inch or 2-inch thick
drawer front with handle is recommended. These front
panels are designed on the E Series front panel platform
and are available with a tubular, curved or pro handle.
The 2-inch thick drawer fronts with pro handle are
designed to be installed below a sealed burner rangetop
so the panel aligns properly with the front of the rangetop.
OVERALL DIMENSIONS
Dimensions may vary ±

INSTALL RECESSED CLEATS AND PLATFORM
For an overlay or flush inset application, you will need to
install a recessed platform and cleats into the opening.
Refer to the chart for specifications. Proper recess of the
platform and cleats is critical to the function and esthetics
of the warming drawer installation.
The depth of the platform may increase with the cabinet
depth. Be sure to rigidly mount the platform so that it
can support a minimum of 200 lbs (91 kg). Refer to the
illustrations below.
Mounting holes will need to be drilled in the back of the
drawer front panel. Holes should be drilled on site to
ensure proper fit and gaps are achieved. A drilling
template is provide with the integrated drawer front.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Be sure to finish the inside lip of the
opening and the front face of the platform and cleats.
These areas may be visible when the drawer is open.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Be aware of the location of the
mounting holes on the warming drawer frame to make
sure screws used to attach the cleats do not interfere with
screw holes for mounting the warming drawer.

The electrical supply should be located as shown in the
illustration for your specific installation on previous pages.
Follow the National Electrical Code and local codes and
ordinances when installing the receptacle. A separate
circuit, servicing only this appliance is required.
If two warming drawers are installed side by side, they can
operate from the same electrical outlet. A 30 amp circuit
breaker is required for this installation.
IMPORTANT NOTE: When installed outdoors, a ground
fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) is required to reduce the risk
of electrical shock.

Install the Warming Drawer
U
npack the warming drawer on a flat surface. Remove all
packaging materials from inside the warming drawer. Do
not discard the package containing the two wood screws
needed for installation.
Turn power off to the electrical outlet.
Slide the left corner of the warming drawer into the
opening. If the electrical outlet is installed inside the
opening, plug the power cord into the outlet. The excess
cord should be coiled behind or beside the unit. If the
outlet is located in an adjacent cabinet, thread the power
cord through the hole in the cabinet wall. Push the drawer
back into the opening until the trim meets the cabinet
front. Make sure the power cord does not get trapped
under the warming drawer.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not lift up on the handle to push
the drawer into place.
Open the warming drawer to its full extension. Drill pilot
holes in each side hole, located toward the front on each
side of the warming drawer. Install the wood screws
provided with the unit. Refer to the illustration below.
Turn power back on to the electrical outlet.

Anti-Tip Block
INSTALL ANTI-TIP BLOCKING
Install a 2" (51) x 2" (51) or 2" (51) x 4" (102) anti-tip block
against the rear cabinet wall. When the warming drawer is
installed below a built-in oven, you may use a
7
/8" (22)
thick platform to allow the warming drawer trim and the
oven trim to meet. The platform will act as an anti-tip
device for the warming drawer.
An anti-tip block or platform must be installed to
prevent the warming drawer from tipping forward while
opened when loaded. Failure to do so could result in
personal injury and damage to the cabinet.
Warming Drawer Installation 14
