The cooktop burner uses an electronic igniter
in place of a standing pilot. When the cooktop
control knob is pushed in and turned to the
position, the system creates a spark to
light the burner. This sparking continues for 4
seconds or until the electronic ignition senses
a flame, which ever comes first. If the igniter
fails to ignite the gas in 4 seconds, the gas
safety shutoff valve will close, eliminating the
gas flow for 5 seconds. The valve will reopen
after the purge time of 5 seconds, and the
igniter will automatically attempt to re-ignite
the gas. This cycle of events is attempted 3
times. After the third attempt, in order for gas
to flow to the burner once again, the user must
return the knob to the
position and then
turn the knob to the
position.
To check operation of the cooktop burner, push
in and turn the control knob to the
position. The flame should light within four
seconds.
If the burner does not light properly, turn the
control knob to the
position. Check that
the burner head is in the proper position.
Check that the power supply cord is plugged in
and that the circuit breaker or house fuse has
not blown.
Check operation again; If flame is not estab-
lished within the ignition cycle time, release
the knob, open a door and wait 1 minute
before attempting a new ignition procedure.
If the flames are extinguished - for any reason
whatever - turn OFF the control knob and wait
at least 1 minute before retrying to ignite the
burner.
Ensure that the flames do not extinguish when
you reduce to low flame quickly. Check correct
operation of each burner individually and in
combination.

The flame on natural gas should be blue with a
deeper blue core and no yellow tipping. If
burners show any abnormality check that

the ‘trouble shooting guide’ on this page. If
satifactory performance can not be obtained,
contact Multyflex. For service contact number

IMPORTANT NOTE:
If the cooktop does not
operate properly, follow these troubleshooting
steps:
Verify that power is being supplied to the
cooktop.
Check that gas valves are turned to the ON
position.
Check the gas supply and electrical
connections to ensure that the installation
has been completed correctly.
Follow troubleshooting procedures as
described in the Wolf Gas Cooktops
Use & Care Information.
If the cooktop still does not work, contact
a Wolf authorized service center. Do not
attempt to repair the cooktop yourself. Wolf
is not responsible for service required to
correct a faulty installation.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Initial lighting of the surface
burners may take slightly longer, as air in the
system must be purged before gas can be
supplied to the burner.
