SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS
TOP SURFACE BURNERS
Always check the positions of the control knobs to make certain the rangetop and top surface burners are off when you are finished cooking.
When deep fat frying, be certain that the pan is large enough to accom­modate the desired volume of food without overflow caused by bubbling of the fat. Never leave a deep fat fryer unattended. A deep fat frying of moist or frost­covered foods, as foods with high water content may cause spattering or spilling of the hot fat. Heat fat slowly, and stir together any combi­nations of oils and fats prior to applying heat. Utilize a deep fat frying thermometer to avoid heating the fat to temperatures above the flash point.
void
Always light each burner prior to placing a pan on the burner grate. Also, turn the control knob to the position before removing a pan from the burner grate.
Keep any ventilation filters clean to avoid grease fires.
Do not clean the rangetop while it is still hot. If using a damp sponge or cloth, wait until the rangetop has cooled sufficiently to prevent steam burns. Also, some cleaners can produce harmful or unpleasant fumes if applied to hot surfaces. Refer to Care Recommendations on pages 24–25.
Always set pans gently onto the grates and center them so that they are well balanced.
7
TOP SURFACE BURNERS
Do not allow aluminum foil, plastic, paper or cloth to come in contact with a hot burner or grate. Do not allow pans to boil dry
.
Start the ventilation hood approxi­mately five minutes before cooking on the rangetop or top surface burners; this establishes an air curtain and improves the capture of vapor and moisture.
Do not cover the burners and grates with anything except properly selected utensils. Decorative covers should not be used.
Wear proper apparel. Never let loose clothing or other flammable materi­als come in contact with the burners while in operation. Fabric may ignite and cause personal injury.
When using the rangetop, do not touch the grates, burner caps, burner bases or any other parts in proximity to the flame. These components may be hot enough to cause burns.
If the rangetop is near a window, do not use long curtains as a window treatment, as they could blow over the rangetop and create a fire hazard.
Boilovers and greasy spills may smoke or ignite.
Do not store or use gasoline or
other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
Choose pans with easily grasped handles that will stay cool while cooking. Refer to Cookware Selec­tion on page 23.

WOLF SEALED BURNER RANGETOP OPERATION
Nyliner Insertion
SURFACE BURNERS
A spark electrode ignites each surface burner. This control eliminates the need for continuous open flame pilots. For added safety and convenience, each burner is designed with an electronic reignition system. This feature enables any burner to relight automatically in the event it is accidentally extinguished.
Large burners provide a rating of 4.6 kW (286 g/h) on , with .9 kW (57 g/h) delivered at simmer. The small burner provides a rating of 2.8 kW (179 g/h) on , with .55 kW (43 g/h) delivered at simmer. All burners have simmer settings.
A distinguishing feature of Wolf’s low kW control is its constant, low heat output without continuous ignitions. The flame diameter remains full size; only the heat output is lowered. This patented dual stacked burner design makes it possible to enjoy cooking at full flame as well as maintain control while simmering at the lowest flame setting.
DUAL STACKED BURNER ASSEMBLY
The unique dual stacked burner design combines all of the burner parts in one assembly.
After cleaning or removing burner parts for any reason, it is extremely important that you reassemble burners correctly.
The burner cap should sit flat on the burner or you will not get a blue flame. Refer to the illustration below.
Failure to position the burner parts correctly could cause flames or gas to escape, causing heat damage to your range, or burn between parts, resulting in poor combustion.

WOLF SEALED BURNER RANGETOP OPERATION
CONTROL KNOBS
The control knobs are positioned to corre­spond to the burners they regulate. The knobs on the far left regulate the burners on the left side. Conversely, the knobs on the far right regulate the burners on the right side.
Never leave pans on a setting unat­tended. Be particularly cautious when cooking food in fat or grease. It can become hot enough to ignite.
The precision fit of the control knobs requires the use of a nyliner insertion between the knob and bezel. When removing knobs for cleaning, place the nyliner back inside the bezel for easy reinstallation of the knobs. Refer to the illustra­tion on page 12.
To light a burner:
push in and turn the corre­sponding control knob counterclockwise to setting. You will hear a clicking sound and see the burner ignite. Once the burner is lit, continue turning the knob counterclockwise to any one of the settings— through .
To select a SIMMER setting:
turn the burner knob to the setting; you will feel a stop detent in the knob rotation. Push in on the knob, continuing to turn it counterclockwise. This moves the flame to the second tier. Now, select any variation within the flame settings— through .
Each knob is designed to be a ”push-to-turn” knob. Although this is a child-safe design, children should never be left unattended in the kitchen when the rangetop is in use.

WOLF SEALED BURNER RANGETOP OPERATION
FLAME HEIGHT AND APPEARANCE
Select a flame that is just high enough to maintain the desired cooking speed and is sized to fit the base diameter of the pan. Never extend the flame beyond the base of the pan. Smaller diameter pans should be used on the left rear burner
.
The flame on natural gas should be blue with a deeper blue core. There should be minimal trace of a yellow flame. A yellow flame indi­cates an improper mixture of air and gas or impurities in the gas supply to the range. If this occurs consistently, call a Wolf authorized service center to adjust the mixture. With LP gas, some yellow tipping to the flame is acceptable and may not require an adjustment.
A ”popping” sound may be noticed with LP gas when the surface burner is turned off. This is normal.
GRA
TE PLACEMENT
The low profile, cast iron grates are designed for a close fit. This enables you to move pans easily from one burner to another without having to lift the pan or have it tip over between the grates. Each grate sets securely on dimples on each corner of the burner pan.
BEFORE USING YOUR RANGETOP
Before using for the first time, you should clean your rangetop thoroughly with hot water and a mild detergent. Rinse and dry with a soft cloth. This removes any residual oil and grease left on the surface from the manufacturing process. Refer to Care Recommendations on pages 24–25.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Before using your Wolf sealed burner rangetop, check that the surface burner caps are positioned correctly.
Griddles and French Tops need to go through a ”burn in” period to clean oils from the bottom of these assemblies. To prevent food from sticking and to protect the surface from moisture, it is necessary to season the griddle and French Top prior to use. Refer to the following pages for specific instructions on using the optional charbroiler, griddle and French Top.
The use of proper cookware is very important. Refer to Cookware Selection on page 23 for cookware recommendations.
13
Continuous grates are interchangeable, exclud­ing the charbroiler grate with the burner grate.
Position the porcelain-coated, cast iron grates over two burners. Rubber pads located under the grate support legs will match up with the dimples on the burner pans.
The drip pan holds as much as .6 L of liquid spillover per two-burner pan.
W O LF SEA LED B URN ER R ANGET O P OPERAT I O N
I N FRA RED GRILL
This optional feature is designed with an infrared burner to give the highest quality and most efficient method of gas grilling. A radiant plate with numerous holes distributes the heat evenly over the grate. The burner becomes an orange-red color at the surface of the ceramic tile, and when it glows, it transfers an intense heat to the food. This sears the outside of the food, leaving the inside tender and juicy.
The infrared burner is designed to operate at
5.8 kW (378 g/h) at 100% full heat output.
Before using the charbroiler for the first time, place the radiant plate slots over the front deflector of the charbroiler frame. The edges of the charbroiler grate should line up on top of the assembly.
INFRARED GRILL TIPS
Turn on the ventilation hood five minutes prior to using the infrared grill..
High is the only setting on the knob. If the knob is not set fully at , the burner may turn blue and the automatic igniter will begin sparking. Turn the knob back to .
To minimize flare-ups when grilling chicken breasts and thighs, remove the skin. Brush pieces with peanut or vegetable oil to reduce sticking to the grate.
If flare-ups occur, quickly move the food to another place on the grate with long tongs.
Apply basting sauce halfway through cooking time.
Use a minute timer as a reminder to turn the food over halfway through cooking time.
Leave the infrared grill on for
ten minutes after grilling is complete.
To prevent flare-ups, you must never leave the charbroiler unattended during use.
Leave burner on for 10 minutes after
grilling.
Do Not surface once cooking has been completed.

INFRARED GRIDDLE
The steel griddle plate operates at 5.5 kW (336 g/h). It is thermostatically controlled, which means once the set temperature is reached, the heat cycles to hold that tempera­ture. To prevent food from sticking and to protect the surface from moisture, it is neces­sary to season the griddle prior to use. This seasoning process as well as general use will change the appearance of the griddle.
SEASON THE GRIDDLE
Clean the surface with hot water and a mild detergent. Rinse and dry
.
Turn on the ventilation hood five minutes prior to using the griddle.
The griddle needs to go through a ”burn in” period. Turn the griddle on at 175˚C for 30 minutes to clean oils from the bottom of the griddle. After 30 minutes, turn the griddle off and allow it to cool.
o season, pour 5 ml of peanut or vegetable
T oil per 279 mm griddle in the center; spread evenly with a paper towel, avoiding the corners. Be careful not to apply too much oil. Excess oil will leave a gummy residue that will have to be removed.
GRIDDLE OPERATION
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The stainless steel cover must be removed prior to operation of the griddle.
Turn on the ventilation hood five minutes prior to using the griddle.
To heat the griddle, push in the control knob and turn counterclockwise to the desired temperature. It is normal to hear a clicking sound. This is the electronic ignition lighting the burner. When the burner is lit, the thermostat will control the temperature.
Preheat for approximately 10 minutes. When the griddle is preheated, the griddle indicator light will go out. The light will cycle on and off as the thermostat requires more heat to maintain the set temperature. This will allow heat to be evenly distributed and the griddle to maintain the set temperature.
The double griddle has two burners with separate control knobs that act indepen­dently of each other. If only one griddle is being used, there will be some heat transfer to the inactive griddle.
17
Push and turn the control knob to 175˚C. Heat until you see the first signs of smoke. Turn the griddle . When the griddle has cooled and is only slightly warm, wipe off any excess oil. Let the griddle cool completely.
Repeat with another teaspoon of oil. The brown appearance will darken with use.
To turn the griddle off, turn the control knob clockwise to the position.
Be particularly cautious when cooking food high in fat. It can become hot enough to ignite.

French Top
Center Plate
FRENCH TOP
The 4.6 kW (286 g/h) French Top is an optional feature that provides a 559 mm cooking surface with the hottest temperature under the center plate and the lowest temperature near the edges. This design makes it possible to use several pans at once for a variety of cooking tasks. For example, fry chicken toward the center
, while simmering a sauce in one corner and keeping vegetables warm in a different corner. Place the pan or pans toward the edge according to their contents and quantity. Refer to the illustrations below.
The cooking surface is made of polished cast iron that is an excellent heat conductor
. The several rings allow for the solid surface to expand with the heat while remaining flat. The rings also provide thermal breaks in the cast iron that distribute the heat in a graduated intensity, hottest in the center and coolest around the edges.
To protect the cast iron surface from moisture, it is necessary to season the French Top prior to use. This seasoning process as well as general use will change the appearance of the French Top.
SEASON THE FRENCH TOP
Clean surface with detergent and warm water. Rinse and dry.
Turn on the ventilation hood five minutes prior to using the French Top.
The French T
op needs to go through a ”burn in” period. Turn on the French Top for 30 minutes to clean oils from the bottom side of the surface. After 30 minutes, turn the French Top off and allow it to cool.
To season, spread a light coating of peanut or vegetable oil on a towel or cloth. While surface is still slightly warm, apply oil evenly until it is absorbed into the cast iron. Use oil sparingly; too much oil will smoke excessively when heated and leave a gummy coating that will have to be removed. Avoid using olive oil; it leaves a gummy residue.
It is normal for the cast iron to darken with use to a bluish-black color.
When this seasoning technique is applied correctly, the surface will be protected from moisture. Its appearance darkens with use, a sign that the French Top has been fully tempered and is properly seasoned. Regular maintenance will become easier.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
The stainless steel cover must be removed prior to operation of the French Top.
Turn on the ventilation hood five minutes prior to using the French Top.
To use the French Top, push and turn the control knob counterclockwise until you hear the clicking sound of the igniter lighting the burner. When you hear the burner ignite, turn the knob clockwise to the
setting.
Preheat for 25 to 30 minutes before cooking on the French Top. This allows the solid cast iron plate to heat thoroughly.
To raise or lower the cooking heat, slide the pan either toward (higher heat) or away from (lower heat) the center plate. This gives you total control over the most delicate sauces. It is not necessary to adjust the flame height.
To turn the French Top off, turn the control knob clockwise to the position.
FRENCH TOP COOKING TIPS
Always cook in pans. Do not cook food directly on the surface.
Never remove the center plate when cooking.
When bringing large amounts of water to a boil, it is fastest to do it on one of the regular burners.
Never leave pans on a high heat zone unattended. Be particularly cautious when cooking food in fat or grease. It can become hot enough to ignite.

It is best to maintain a seasoned surface to protect the cast iron from moisture.
Clean entire surface after each use while it is slightly warm. Wipe the surface with a mild detergent and water
. Rinse and dry.
Maintain the French Top as you would a cast iron skillet; keep it free from moisture.
Reapply a light coating of peanut or vegetable oil to the French T
op after each
use until a sheen develops.
Periodically, it may be necessary to strip the oil and stains from the plate. Apply a small amount of white vinegar and water to the surface while it is slightly warm. Repeat until excess oil has been removed.
The French Top burner is located below the center plate. The plate remains in place during cooking, but it can be lifted off to check or service the burner. Use the center plate hook provided with your rangetop, as shown in the illustration below.
Allow the French Top surface to cool sufficiently before cleaning.

COOKWARE SELECTION
OPERATION
For best results, we recommend medium- to heavy-weight pans that have a flat base, metal handle and a good-fitting cover.
Look for pans that are made of materials with good heat conductivity, such as aluminum and copper. These metals are sometimes found ”sandwiched” between the inner and outer layers of the pan. If present, whether visible from the outside or not, they aid in evenly conducting heat.
Use the following guidelines when selecting cookware for the rangetop:
Griddles or open roasters that span two burners are suitable, providing they are not warped.
When a large pan is centered over a burner the diameter should not exceed 254 mm.
When using pans made of cast iron, enameled steel or glass ceramic, or coated with a nonstick finish, select lower flame settings. High heat applied to such materi­als will cause ”hot spots,” scorching and burning.
Cover pans while cooking; covers improve cooking efficiency. Water boils faster
, using
less fuel, and the kitchen stays cooler.
Select high-sided (deep) pans rather than ones with very wide bases and low sides. High sides will minimize liquids boiling over the pan.
Pans with oversized bases that extend beyond the rangetop frame
should not
used. On settings, heat may be trapped beneath the pan, causing permanent damage to the surface finish.
,
be
Use the front burners for larger pans. The pans are easier to handle, especially when hot.
Use a wok with a flat bottom.

Use a clean cloth or sponge; wipe with warm water and a mild
dish detergent. Rinse and dry immediately.
Exterior cleaning:
Use a soft, nonabrasive stainless steel cleaner and apply with a soft, lint-free cloth. To bring out the natural luster, lightly wipe the surface with a water-dampened microfiber cloth, followed with a dry microfiber cloth. All work should follow the grain direction of the finish. Best results are obtained by keeping the cloth in continuous contact with the metal.
Hard water stains:
Use white vinegar and water.
Use spray cleaners to remove fingerprints and food soils. Spray first on a cloth before wipin
g panel.
Do not spray directly on panel or around valve stems or knobs.
It is recommended that the appliance be serviced at least once per year to ensure the appliance continues to operate correctly and safety.
Servicing must only be carried out by authorized personnel

WOLF SEALED BURNER RANGETOP CARE
CLEANING THE RANGETOP
EXTERIOR CLEANING
Cleaning the classic stainless steel exterior finish:
Use a soft, nonabrasive stainless steel cleaner and apply with a soft, lint-free cloth. To bring out the natural luster, lightly wipe the surface with a water-dampened microfiber cloth, followed with a dry microfiber cloth. All work should follow the grain direction of the finish. Better results are obtained by keeping the cloth in continuous contact with the metal.
Refer to Care Recommendations on pages 24–25 for cleaning specific components of the Wolf sealed burner rangetop.
RANGETOP CLEANING TIPS
Wait until surfaces are cool before cleaning.
For best results, wipe up spills and spatters as they occur and immediately after the rangetop has cooled. If splatters are allowed to cook on, they may permanently damage or stain the finish.
If in doubt about using one of your cleaners, check the label. T
o check if it is safe to use on your range, try a small amount on an inconspicuous area using very light pressure.
Use caution when spraying cleaners. Some contain caustic ingredients that can damage adjacent parts and finishes. Protect the adjacent parts by masking them off so that the overspray is contained to the finish being cleaned.
Do not spray cleaners on electrical controls, igniters, wires or knob valve stems.

WOLF TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
PROBLEM POSSIBLE SOLUTION
Burner flame does not burn evenly
Food boils or burns in one area of the pan more than other areas
Burner fails to ignite
Burners extinguish them­selves when using more than one large roaster or griddle simultaneously
Food boils over the pan and into the burner drip pan
Align the burner cap of the stacked, sealed burner assembly as described on page 12.
Pan is not centered above the burner.
Pan material does not conduct heat evenly.
Base of pan is warped and does not rest flat on the grate, or handle of pan is too heavy and tips pan toward handle.
Ceramic igniter is damp from a spillover or spray cleaner. Allow ceramic to dry out completely.
Burner cap ports are blocked. Use a straightened, metal paper clip to open the blockage.
If a GFCI circuit is used, check to see if it has been tripped.
Good gas combustion requires the correct amount of airflow to maintain the flame. Using two oversized pans simultaneously restricts air movement.
Heat setting is too high or pan size is too small for its contents.
Water does not come to a boil fast enough
Food cooks too slowly when sautéing
Simmer setting does not maintain constant surface temperature
Water temperature is colder than usual.
Cover pan for most efficient use of the setting.
Diameter of pan is too large or base of pan is warped.
Too much food is added at one time; reduce amount of food and sauté in batches.
Size of food pieces is too large or temperature of food is colder than usual.
Pan does not conduct heat evenly.
Delicate foods may need a lower simmer setting so that scorching does not occur.
