The oven temperature can be changed at any time once a
cooking mode has been selected.

1) Touch the number pads to enter in the new
temperature.

2) Touch ENTER.

This will change the oven temperature immediately. If
ENTER is not touched, the oven will automatically switch
to the new oven temperature within five seconds.

RAPID MODE CHANGE

The oven has the ability to quickly change cooking modes.
This is a method of switching cooking modes without
turning the oven on and off. If one mode is already started,
instead of turning the oven off to change cooking modes,
simply touch the desired cooking mode touch pad.

OVEN PREHEAT

IMPORTANT NOTE:

a manner unsuitable for cooking.

The oven preheat feature is used for all cooking modes
except broil and convection broil. In order not to damage
food, preheating will not occur once the oven reaches its
set temperature. Increasing oven temperature during
cooking will result in the oven taking a very long time to
reach the new temperature. To reach a new temperature
quickly, touch OFF to exit the current mode. Touch ON,
then the desired cooking mode and enter a new tempera­ture of at least 50° higher than the previous operating
temperature.

During preheat, the oven is heated in

BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

Before using your E series oven for the first time, clean
thoroughly with hot water and a mild detergent. Rinse and
dry with a soft cloth. Refer to care recommendations on
page 33.

Turn on the oven when prompted, set the language by
touching 1 for English, 2 for German, 3 for French, 4 for
Spanish or 5 for Italian.

Next, set the single oven or the upper cavity of the double
oven to ROAST (convection roast) at 550°F (260°C) for
one hour. For a double oven, wait until the upper oven has
finished convection roasting for one hour, and then set the
bottom oven to ROAST at 550°F (260°C) for one hour.
Refer to page 17 for convection roast mode instructions
and page 14 for roast mode. Allow the oven to cool gradu­ally with the door closed.

This process will burn off any residual oil and grease used
during the manufacturing process. A small amount of
smoke and odor may be noticed during the initial break-in
period. The oven door can be opened after the oven has
cooled significantly. The first time the self-clean feature is
used, there will be further burn-off that may create smoke
and odor.

AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF

As a safety feature, the E series oven(s) will shut off auto­matically after 12 hours of continual use, unless dehydra­tion mode or Sabbath feature is in use.

OVEN RACK GUIDES

To insert the rack guides in the oven, locate the screws in
the oven side walls. Place the rack guide mounting tabs
over the screw heads and slide down until the screws are
fully seated in the tabs. Refer to the illustration below.

To remove the rack guides, pull the rack guide straight up
and then out so that the mounting tabs clear the screw
heads. Remove the rack guide from the oven.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Remove all oven racks and rack

guides before using the self-clean feature. They will
discolor if left in the oven during self-clean.

OVEN RACKS

To insert a rack in the oven, place the rack anti-tip lock
under the side rack guide rails. Slide the rack toward the
back of the oven and lift up to clear the rack stops. Con­tinue sliding the rack until it is completely inside the oven.

To remove a rack from the oven, slide the rack forward
and lift up and out, clearing the rack stops from the side
rack guide rails. Refer to the illustration below.

The bottom oven rack has a full-extension capability. With
the rack in rack guide position 1, slide it onto the stainless
steel door guides. This adds stability to the rack when
using a heavy pan for large meat and poultry. With the
rack fully extended, it is easier to safely reach hot food.
Refer to the illustration below for rack guide positions.

OVEN RACK ARRANGEMENT

One of the factors affecting optimum cooking results is the
level of rack placement in the oven. Rack position 1 is
closest to the bottom and position 6 is closest to the top.
The Wolf cooking guide on pages 34–36 provides
suggested rack positions for optimum results.

• When using only one rack, place rack in the center of

the oven.

• When using only one rack for roasting meats, place

rack on rack guide position 1, 2 or 3.

• When using two or three racks, place at least one rack

position between them.

• When positioning racks, the easy glide rack can be

placed in any position except position 1. The full­extension bottom rack was specifically designed to be
placed in position 1.

Use dry pot holders when handling oven racks. Racks
become hot when the oven is on and hold heat after it
is turned off.
