SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS
WHAT TO DO
IMPORTANT NOTE: Read all
instructions before using this
appliance.
Read this Use & Care Information
carefully before using your new
steamer module
to reduce the risk of
fire, electric shock or injury to
persons.
Make certain your unit is properly
installed and grounded by qualified
personnel.
Use sturdy, properly insulated
gloves or pot holders. Dish towels or
other substitutes can become entangled, causing burns. Keep pot
holders dry. Wet pot holders create
steam and cause burns. Keep pot
holders away from open flames
when lifting or moving utensils.
Use only the insert pans that
accompany the steamer module,
unless otherwise stated in the Use
& Care Information.
To eliminate the risk of burns or
fire when reaching over heated
surface units, cabinet storage
space located above the surface
units should be avoided. If
cabinet storage is to be provided,
the risk can be reduced by
installing a ventilation hood that
projects horizontally a minimum
of 5" (127) beyond the bottom
cabinets.
This steamer module must be
installed at least 15" (381) away
from a Wolf fryer module, as
contact between water and hot
oil may cause burns from steam
and hot oil.

WOLF STEAMER MODULE USE & CARE
STEAMER MODULE
The Wolf electric steamer module allows
steam to surround the food that is being
ooked to prevent a loss of nutrients.
c
Steaming also allows food to retain its shape,
color and aroma.
The Wolf steamer module has an electronic
emperature control that closely regulates the
t
water temperature for optimal cooking
performance. The temperature range is 140˚F
(60˚C) to HIGH. This provides the ability to
proof bread dough, melt chocolate, hold stews
for long periods of time, and steam rice and a
variety of foods without losing nutrients or
flavor.
STEAMER MODULE ASSEMBLY
For storage, position the solid insert pan on
top and place both insert pans into the
steamer basin with handles aligned. The
domed glass lid can be inverted to keep a low
profile for storage. Refer to the illustration
below.
For stacked alignment, rotate the solid insert
pan 90 degrees to the perforated.

STEAMER MODULE OPERATION
BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
lean your steamer module thoroughly with
C
hot water and a mild detergent. Rinse and dry
with a soft cloth. This removes any residual oil
nd grease left on the surface from the manu-
a

Refer to Care Recommendations on page 16.
Apply a stainless steel polish to protect the
finish and add luster.
During the initial period of use, you may smell
a light burning odor or see light smoke. Both
these conditions are normal with a new
cooktop module.
Water or liquid must be added to the
steamer basin before turning the unit on.
Serious injury or damage to the steamer
module may result when pouring liquid
into a heated steamer basin.
