E Series Built-In Ovens

  • For ease of installation, Wolf recommends using a 33″ (838) wide cabinet with the E series oven. A minimum 33″ (838) wide cabinet is required for a flush inset installation. The installation opening must have a flat, level base platform to support the oven.
  • The single oven requires a minimum base support of 250 lbs (113 kg). The double oven requires a minimum base support of 400 lbs (181 kg).

STANDARD INSTALLATION

  • A minimum of 24″ (610) of usable cabinet depth is required for standard installations, or the back panel of the cabinet may need to be removed for proper installation. The elec-trical box must be flush with the back panel of the cabinet.
  • For standard installations, the E series oven is installed by inserting it into cabinetry from the front. The oven has a face trim on all four sides and will overlap stiles and rails.
  • The trim overlaps 5/8″ (16) on the top, 1/8″ (3) on the bottom, and 3/4″ (19) on each side.

FLUSH INSET INSTALLATION

  • A minimum of 25″ (635) of usable cabinet depth is required for flush inset installations, or the back panel of the cabinet may need to be removed for proper installation. The electrical box must be flush with the back panel of the cabinet.
  • The flush inset installation requires the E series oven to be recessed into the cabinet. A minimum 33″ (838) wide and 25″ (635) deep cabinet is needed if you want the front of the oven to be flush with surrounding cabinetry.
  • For flush inset installations, the inside edges of the rough opening must be finished, as they will be exposed when the oven door is open.
  • These edges should be stained instead of having a laminated surface, to avoid damage from high temperatures during self-clean.

COMBINATION INSTALLATIONS

  • Wolf built-in ovens are designed and agency-approved for installation with Wolf cooktops, microwaves, and warming drawers only.
  • The nominal width of the built-in oven should match the nominal width of the cooktop. A built-in oven cannot be installed below a Wolf rangetop.
  • For typical combination installations, refer to the illustra-tions on pages 11–14.
  • The single oven may be installed next to another E series single oven. You must allow for a 21/2″ (64) space between the oven rough openings. Also, a separate inner wall is required for each oven between openings.

Electrical Requirements

  • IMPORTANT NOTE: Unless you are using cabinets deeper than 24″ (610) for a standard installation or 25″ (635) for a flush inset installation, it is recommended that the electri-cal supply for the oven be placed in an adjacent cabinet within reach of the conduit. Choose the electrical location shown in the illustrations on the following pages that best suits your installation.

E SERIES SINGLE OVEN

  • Power supply: 240 V AC, 60 Hz with 30 amp service.
  • Maximum connected load: 5.1 kW.
  • Total amps: 21 amps.
  • Supply wire minimum size: L1, L2, and ground 10 AWG.

E SERIES DOUBLE OVEN

  • Power supply: 2 40 V AC, 60 Hz with 50 amp service.
  • Maximum connected load: 8.9 kW.
  • Total amps : 37 amps.
  • Supply wire minimum size: L1, L2, and ground 10 AWG.
  • IMPORTANT NOTE: You must follow all National Electrical Code regulations. In addition, be aware of local codes and ordinances when installing your service.
  • IMPORTANT NOTE: Performance may be compromised if the electrical supply is less than 240 volts.
  • The E series oven is provided with a conduit consisting of two insulated hot lead conductors and an insulated ground conductor. The wiring diagram covering the control circuit is located on the top of the E series oven in a sealed plastic bag.
  • UL installations: Attach the conductors to the residence wiring per National Electrical Codes and all state, municipal, and local codes.
  • CSA installations: Attach the conductors to the electrical box provided. Then connect the residence wiring to the electrical box under all national, provincial, and local codes.

WARNING

  • The complete appliance must be properly grounded at all times when electrical power is applied.
  • Grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited for new branch-circuit installations (1996 NEC); mobile homes and recreational vehicles, or where local codes prohibit grounding through the neutral conductor.
  • If aluminum house supply wiring is utilized, splice the appliance copper wire to the aluminum house wiring using special connectors designed and agency-certified for joining copper and aluminum.
  • Follow the connector manufacturer’s recommended procedure carefully. Improper connection can result in a fire hazard.

E Series Oven Installation

Install the Oven
IMPORTANT NOTE: Before moving the oven, protect any finished flooring to avoid damage to the floor.

  • Move the oven into position near the installation opening. Remove and discard packing materials.
  • Remove the box containing oven components found in each oven cavity.
  • CAUTION The oven is very heavy—use caution when lifting. Do not lift the oven by the door handle. This will damage the oven door and hinges.

OVEN DOOR REMOVAL

  • To reduce the weight of the oven and ease installation, oven door(s) may be removed.
  • To remove, open the oven door all the way. Flip down the hinge latch on each side, then close the door. While holding the door on each side, lift it. Continue to push the door closed and pull it away from the oven frame.
  • To reinstall, insert both hanger arms into the oven frame openings. Open the door. You should hear a ”click” as the door is set into place. Move the hinge levers back to the locked position.
  • Check that the door is free to open and close. If not, repeat the process.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

  • WARNING Verify that power is disconnected from the electrical box before proceeding.
  • With the oven positioned directly in front of the installation opening, feed the conduit through the opening in the cabinet platform (if applicable).
  • Depending on local codes, connect the oven to the electrical supply following these steps for a three-wire or four-wire system.
  1. Connect the appliance black wire to the black (L1) power supply wire in the electrical box.
  2. Connect the appliance red wire to the red (L2) power supply wire in the electrical box.
  3. Connect the appliance bare ground wire to the green/bare ground house wire in the electrical box.
  4. For a four-wire system only, leave the white neutral wire in the house electrical box floating (not connected to anything) but sealed off with a wire cap.

Install the Oven POSITION THE OVEN

  • Carefully lift the oven to the opening. Resting the oven on the cabinet base platform, slide the oven into the opening until it is approximately 6″ (152) from full insertion.
  • Make sure the conduit slides through the opening in the platform as the oven is moved into place.
  • IMPORTANT NOTE: The conduit must fit into the recessed area along the right rear edge of the oven. Make sure it is not trapped between the oven and the cabinet wall.
  • IMPORTANT NOTE: To avoid interference, a 90° door stop may be required for any appliance or cabinet door installed next to an E series oven with a tubular handle.
  • Do not block the exhaust vent located at the bottom of the oven. It must remain clear for proper ventilation.

MOUNT OVEN TO CABINETRY

  • Once the oven is fully inserted into the opening, locate the mounting holes on the oven side trim. There are four mounting holes for a single oven and six for a double oven.
  • Refer to the illustration below. Use a 1/16″ drill bit to drill pilot holes into the cabinet.
  • Using the wood screws provided, secure the oven to the cabinet.
  • Failure to install the mounting screws may cause the oven to tip forward during use.

Verify Oven Operation

  • Unpack the box containing the oven components found in each oven cavity. Install the oven rack guides onto the shoulder screws located on the interior side walls of the oven.
  • Slide the oven racks onto the rack guides and place the broiler pan in the oven.
  • Before operating the oven, be sure to read the entire use & care guide included with the oven for important safety, operating, and warranty information.
  • Turn on the electrical supply to the oven. Set the time of day by pressing the CLOCK touchpad, input the time by using the number pads, and then touch ENTER.
  • Select any of the ten cooking modes on the control panel. Verify that the oven is coming up to temperature. For the double oven, be sure to verify the operation of both ovens.
  • IMPORTANT NOTE: A small amount of smoke and odor may be noticed during the initial break-in period. Refer to the E series built-in oven use & care guide for additional information.
