Cleaning
When it comes to cleaning the range, its important not use any commercial oven cleaners or protective coatings on or around any part of the oven, as doing so could cause serious damage to the oven. Instead, you should always use self-clean mode.
To use self clean mode, first open the hidden control panel, by pressing on the flame symbol located on the front of the panel. Next, remove everything from the oven, including oven racks and rack guides, as leaving them in may cause discolouring. Once empty, turn the oven selector knob until it shows the self-clean symbol. This will prepare the oven to self clean for four hours - three hours to clean and one hour to cool. Then turn the oven selector knob in either direction until cln is displayed. The oven door will then lock for the duration of the clean.
Exterior cleaning
To cleaning the Wolfs stainless steel exterior, you will need a soft, nonabrasive stainless steel cleaner, applied with a soft, clean cloth. To bring out the natural lustre, gently wipe the surface with a damp microfibre cloth, then repeat with a dry microfibre cloth. For best results, be sure to follow the grain of the finish, and maintain constant contact with the metal.
Additional cleaning tips
Ensure surfaces have cooled prior to cleaning.
Try to wipe up splashes and spillages as they occur, and immediately after the range has cooled. If left and cooked on, they could cause permanent damage.
If unsure about using any type of cleaner, first read the label, then try a small test on an inconspicuous area of the range.
Take particular care when using spray cleaners, as many contain harmful ingredients that could potentially damage the range.
Avoid spraying cleaning products on or near electric controls, valve stems, ignitors, wires or valve stems.
To remove hard water stains, use a mix of white wine vinegar and water.
Finally, should anything go wrong with your range, do not attempt to repair or replace parts unless specifically recommended to do so in the accompanying literature.
