Verify Range Operation

IMPORTANT NOTE: Prior to operating the range, be sure to read the entire Wolf gas ranges use & care guide included with the range for important safety, service and warranty information.

SURFACE BURNERS

Place the burner parts on each burner base and position the burner grates before lighting.

Surface burners of the gas range use electronic igniters.

When the control knob is pushed in and turned to the

HIGH position, the system creates a spark to light the burner. This sparking continues until the electronic ignition senses a flame.

To check operation of the surface burners, push in and turn each control knob to the HIGH position. The flame should light within four seconds.

If the burners do not light properly, turn control knobs to the OFF position. Check that burner parts are in the proper position. Make sure electricity is being supplied to the range and that the gas shut-off valve is in the open position. Check operation again, waiting at least five minutes; if the burners still do not light properly, contact a

Wolf authorized service center.

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.

OVEN OPERATION

Turn the oven(s) on and verify that they are coming up to temperature. Refer to the Wolf gas ranges use & care guide for additional information.

IMPORTANT NOTE: A small amount of smoke and odor may be noticed during the initial break-in period.
