Charbroiler Grate (porcelain-coated cast iron): When cool, lift off and set in the sink. Use a soft bristle brush to remove food particles from the grate. Pour very hot water over the cooked-on residue. Cover with wet dish towels and pour more hot water over it.
W O L F D U A L F U E L R A N G E S U R FAC E O P E R AT I O N I N F R A R E D GRIDDLE The infrared griddle operates at 15,000 Btu/hr (4.4 kW) for natural gas and 13,000 Btu/hr (3.8 kW) for LP gas. It is thermostatically controlled, which means once the set temperature is reached, the heat cycles to hold that temperature. To prevent food from sticking and to protect the surface from moisture, it is necessary to season the griddle prior to use.
W O L F D U A L F U E L R A N G E S U R FAC E O P E R AT I O N I N F R A R E D GRIDDLE GRIDDLE CARE Using a metal spatula, scrape grease into the grease collection tray. When the surface has cooled, wipe it with a paper towel to remove excess grease or oil. Scrape the griddle clean.

Failure to adhere to this notice will damage the porcelain and will void your warranty.
W O L F D U A L F U E L R A N G E OV E N O P E R AT I O N OV E N O P E R A T I O N BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME O V E N P R E H E AT Before using your dual fuel range for the first time, clean thoroughly with hot water and a mild detergent. Rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Refer to Care Recommendations, pages 45–47. During preheat the oven is heated in a manner unsuitable for cooking. Preheat should be used for all cooking modes except Broil and Convection Broil modes.
W O L F D U A L F U E L R A N G E OV E N O P E R AT I O N T I M E - O F - DAY C L O C K OV E N T I M E R Immediately after the oven is installed, set the 12-hour clock to the current time of day. It must be reset after a power failure. The clock is visible on the panel during all modes, except when timer feature is in use or when the hidden control panel is closed. Refer to the illustrations below. The oven has a Timer that operates independently from the oven controls.
W O L F D U A L F U E L R A N G E OV E N O P E R AT I O N O V E N R AC K S A N D R AC K G U I D E S OVEN RACK GUIDES To insert the rack guides in the oven, locate the screws in the oven side walls. Place the rack guide mounting tabs over the screw heads and slide down until the screws are fully seated in the tabs. Refer to the illustration below. To remove the rack guides, pull the rack guide straight up and then out so that the mounting tabs clear the screw heads. Remove the rack guide from the oven.
W O L F D U A L F U E L R A N G E OV E N O P E R AT I O N BAKE M O D E How Bake mode works: Both the hidden bake element and the broil element are used to heat the air, and they cycle on and off to maintain temperature. This mode is best for single-rack cooking, primarily baked foods. Always use Bake mode for your standard recipes. The temperature probe may be used in this mode. Refer to the Wolf Cooking Guide on pages 48–51. Use cooking times as a guide for other similar foods.
W O L F D U A L F U E L R A N G E OV E N O P E R AT I O N B A K E S TO N E M O D E How Bake Stone mode works: A specially designed rack and bake stone are used for this mode to assure the food quality expected from this specific form of cooking. To produce a hot oven environment necessary for baking on a ceramic stone, the heat from all elements creates the perfect “brick oven” effect. Both convection fans help circulate the air throughout the oven cavity, so even temperatures are achieved.
W O L F D U A L F U E L R A N G E OV E N O P E R AT I O N B A K E S TO N E M O D E B A K E S TO N E C A R E ACCESSORIES Optional accessories are available through your Wolf dealer. To obtain local dealer information, visit the Locator section of our website, wolfappliance.com. Avoid cooking foods with a high fat content on the bake stone. The porous ceramic material will absorb grease and discolor the stone. Flare-ups can occur.
W O L F D U A L F U E L R A N G E OV E N O P E R AT I O N BROIL M O D E How Broil mode works: The top element is used to conduct an intense, radiant heat that browns one side of the food at a time. Broiled foods usually must be turned over to brown the other side and finish cooking. The high heat cooks quickly and gives a rich, brown outer appearance. This mode is best for meats, fish and poultry pieces up to 1" (25) thick. The temperature probe cannot be used with this mode.
W O L F D U A L F U E L R A N G E OV E N O P E R AT I O N R OA S T M O D E How Roast mode works: Both bake and broil elements are used to heat the air, and they cycle on and off to maintain temperature. This mode is designed especially for roasting less tender cuts of meat that should be covered, such as chuck roasts, lamb shanks, pot roasts and stew meat. The temperature probe may be used in this mode. Refer to the Wolf Cooking Guide on pages 48–51. Use cooking times as a guide for other similar foods.
W O L F D U A L F U E L R A N G E OV E N O P E R AT I O N CONVECTION M O D E How Convection mode works: Dual convection fans, each with a heating element, operate from the back of the oven to move the heated air throughout the entire oven cavity. The 18" (457) oven has a single convection fan. Uniform air movement makes it possible to multi-level rack cook in this mode. The heat is cycled on and off to maintain the temperature, resulting in evenly browned food.
W O L F D U A L F U E L R A N G E OV E N O P E R AT I O N CONVECTION BAKE M O D E How Convection Bake mode works: This mode combines heat from two convection elements with some heat from the bake element that is located beneath the oven floor. Two convection fans circulate this heat within the oven cavity. The 18" (457) oven has a single convection element and fan. The added heat source from the bottom of the oven makes this mode ideal for pie baking. The temperature probe may be used in this mode.
W O L F D U A L F U E L R A N G E OV E N O P E R AT I O N CONVECTION BROIL M O D E How Convection Broil mode works: Intense radiant heat from the top element browns and sears the surface of the food while both convection fans circulate hot air around the food. The 18" (457) oven has a single convection fan. This mode shortens broiling times for thicker cuts of meat, fish and poultry. The heat of the broiler browns the exterior, while the convection fans keep the interior moist and juicy.
W O L F D U A L F U E L R A N G E OV E N O P E R AT I O N C O N V E C T I O N R OA S T M O D E How Convection Roast mode works: Heat from both convection fans, with additional heat from the broil element, intensifies the convective and radiant heating in this mode. In the 18" (457) oven, the single convection fan works with the top heat. This combination gently browns the exterior and seals in juices, making it perfect for roasting tender cuts of beef, lamb, pork and poultry.
W O L F D U A L F U E L R A N G E OV E N O P E R AT I O N P RO O F M O D E A N D F E AT U R E There is a Proof mode on the oven selector knob bezel on the 18" (457) oven. Both the 30" (762) and 36" (914) ovens have a Proof feature that can be initiated through Bake mode. S E T T I N G C O N T RO L S How Proof mode and feature work: A combination of broil, convection and bake elements are used to heat and balance the air to maintain temperature. This feature is ideal for proofing, or rising bread dough.
W O L F D U A L F U E L R A N G E OV E N O P E R AT I O N D E H Y D R AT I O N F E A T U R E How Dehydration feature works: This feature allows for slowly drying out food for preservation and other cooking uses. ACCESSORIES Optional accessories are available through your Wolf dealer. To obtain local dealer information, visit the Locator section of our website, wolfappliance.com. Use the Convection mode for this feature.
W O L F D U A L F U E L R A N G E OV E N O P E R AT I O N D E H Y D R AT I O N G U I D E D E H Y D R AT I O N R A C K A C C E S S O R Y Dehydration racks are available from your Wolf dealer.

W O L F D U A L F U E L R A N G E OV E N O P E R AT I O N D E L AY E D S TA RT F E A T U R E How Delayed Start feature works: This feature controls the automatic timing of the oven’s ON and OFF function. Set a mode to start later in the day and turn off when the cooking is complete or set it to turn off at a preset time. Use in combination with any cooking mode except Broil, Convection Broil and Bake Stone.
W O L F D U A L F U E L R A N G E OV E N O P E R AT I O N T I M E C O O K F E AT U R E T E M P E R AT U R E P R O B E F E A T U R E S E T T I N G C O N T RO L S How Temperature Probe feature works: The probe measures doneness by measuring the internal temperature of food without opening the oven door. It is a convenient and accurate way to achieve the perfect doneness regardless of the type, cut or weight of the food. Calculating a total cooking time by weight is no longer necessary using this feature.
W O L F D U A L F U E L R A N G E OV E N O P E R AT I O N T E M P E R AT U R E P R O B E F E A T U R E U S D A R E C O M M E N D AT I O N S The internal temperatures listed in the following chart are recommended carving temperatures. Use the Temperature Probe feature to measure internal temperatures. Refer to page 39 for setting this mode in combination with Convection Roast and Roast modes. IMPORTANT NOTE: The accuracy of the probe is decreased for all temperatures below 100˚F (40˚C).

W O L F D U A L F U E L R A N G E OV E N O P E R AT I O N S A B B AT H F E A T U R E Star-K Certified S E T T I N G C O N T RO L S How the Sabbath feature works: This mode allows for baking or keeping food warm while still adhering to the ”no work” requirements on religious Sabbath days. For Time Bake in Sabbath feature: On holidays, temperatures may be adjusted but the display will remain unchanged.
W O L F D U A L F U E L R A N G E OV E N O P E R AT I O N S A B B AT H F E A T U R E SELF-CLEAN M O D E C H A N G I N G O V E N T E M P E R AT U R E How Self-Clean mode works: The oven is heated in graduated steps to a preset high temperature. During this process, food soil is burned off, leaving some white ash residue. Set in combination with Delayed Start feature, cleaning the oven can be programmed to start and stop while you sleep. Refer to Delayed Start feature on page 36.
W O L F D U A L F U E L R A N G E OV E N O P E R AT I O N SELF-CLEAN M O D E WOLF TIPS FOR SUCCESS S E T T I N G C O N T RO L S For Self-Clean mode: For Self-Clean mode: Before using Self-Clean mode, remove the oven racks and oven rack guides. They will discolor if left in the oven during this mode. 1) Open hidden control panel by pressing in on the flame symbol on the front of the panel. Remove broiler pan and any other utensil stored inside the oven.
WO L F D UA L F U E L R A N G E CARE C O O K WA R E S E L E C T I O N B A K E WA R E S E L E C T I O N For best results, we recommend medium- to heavy-weight pans that have a flat base, metal handle and a good-fitting cover. Use the following guidelines when selecting bakeware for the oven(s): Look for pans that are made of materials with good heat conductivity, such as aluminum and copper. These metals are sometimes found ”sandwiched” between the inner and outer layers of the pan.
