Modes of Operation
LOCK MODE
In lock mode, all touch pad operations on the control
panel are disabled and all heating elements are turned off.
A steady glowing light within the “key” symbol indicates
that the cooktop is locked. Refer to the illustration below.
•
To lock the control panel, touch and hold the key
symbol for 3 seconds. Three chimes will sound and the
light within the key symbol will illuminate. The cooktop
is now in lock mode.
•
To unlock the control panel, touch and hold the key
symbol for 3 seconds. Two chimes will sound and the
light within the key symbol will go out. The cooktop is
now in idle mode.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
When the cooktop is powered up for
the first time or if there has been a power outage, the
cooktop will default to lock mode.
IDLE MODE
After unlocking the control panel as described in lock
mode, the cooktop enters the idle mode of operation.
Available touch pad operations include OFF ON for each
element, lock mode and timer functions.
Control Panel
The control panel of your electric cooktop is illuminated
for instant visual indication that one or more elements are
in use. The control panel features touch controls with
graduated control lighting. A power bar indicator in each
control will display the heat setting level for the element.
Refer to the illustration below.
Wolf electric cooktops operate by using high-frequency
pulsation, cycling the heating elements between zero
power and full power. As the heat is increased on the
control panel, the element will stay at full power for longer
periods and have shorter periods of zero power.
When using the dual-zone or triple-zone elements, all
sections of the element will cycle at the same rate. For
safety reasons, the outer elements cannot be turned on
independently from the center section.
Do not place hot cookware directly over the control
panel.
