Electric Cooktop Care 15
CLEANING
• Lock the cooktop before cleaning by touching and
holding the key symbol for 3 seconds.
• Clean the cooktop surface thoroughly before operating
for the first time and after each use.
• Wait until the cooktop surface is cool before cleaning.
It will be safe to clean if the hot-surface indicator light
is not illuminated.
• For best results, wipe up spills and spatters as they
occur and immediately after the cooktop has cooled.
If spills with a high sugar content are allowed to cook
on, they may permanently damage the glass-ceramic
surface. Use the razor blade scraper provided with the
cooktop to remove heavy or burned-on spills.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners or applicators; they will
permanently scratch cooktop surfaces.
• Use a spray degreaser to remove fingerprints and
greasy spatters.
• To clean the glass-ceramic surface, use a nonabrasive
cleaner like Elco Cooktop Cleaning Creme and apply
with a lightly dampened cloth. Remove any cleaning
residue from the surface and wipe with a dry cloth.
• To clean the stainless steel trim of framed models, use
a nonabrasive stainless steel cleaner and apply with a
soft lint-free cloth. Remove any cleaning residue from
the trim and wipe with a dry cloth.
Care Recommendations
• Do not use the cooktop as a cutting board.
• Do not slide cookware with a rough bottom, such as
cast iron, across the glass-ceramic surface. If this
occurs, remove any marks with a nonabrasive cleaner.
• Do not allow any item that could melt to come in
contact with the glass-ceramic surface when it is hot.
If this occurs, use the razor blade scraper provided
with the cooktop to remove.
• Do not place food directly on the glass-ceramic
surface when it is hot.
• Do not operate the cooktop if the glass-ceramic
surface is broken. Contact a Wolf authorized service
center.
• Do not place a trivet, wok support ring or other metal
stand directly onto the cooktop surface.
• Do not apply chlorine bleach, ammonia or other strong
chemicals or cleaners to the cooktop surface.
• Do not wipe the cooktop surface with a cloth that may
leave a film of detergent; it will cause the cooktop to
discolor during the next heating cycle.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not place hot cookware near the
sealed outer edges of flush-mounted unframed cooktops.
This will cause damage to the silicone seal.
MAINTENANCE
The Wolf electric cooktop is a sealed system that does not
require internal maintenance. The cleaning and care
recommendations outline necessary maintenance for the
glass-ceramic surface. All other maintenance must be
performed by a Wolf authorized service center technician.
