GRILL OPERATION

Grill Operation
BURNER LIGHTING

1. Open the hood completely. Do not attempt to light the grill with the hood closed. For the module, remove the cover.
2. Open the gas supply shut-off valve.
3. Push in the burner control knob and verify the hot surface igniter glows. The hot surface igniters are located below the burner grates inside the flash tubes (for the module, at the rear of the burner). Refer to the illustrations below.
4. Once a glow is verified, push in and turn the control knob counterclockwise to HI. Hold the knob in for five seconds. Once a flame is visible, release the knob. If the burner fails to light within five seconds, turn the knob to OFF, wait five minutes and repeat the lighting procedure.
5. Close the hood and allow the grill to preheat until the desired temperature is displayed on the thermometer.

MANUAL LIGHTING

If electrical power is not available, surface burners can be lit manually using a multi-purpose lighter.

1. Open the hood completely. Do not attempt to light the grill with the hood closed. For the module, remove the cover.
2. Open the gas supply shut-off valve.
3. Push in and turn the control knob counterclockwise to HI. Hold the knob in for five seconds.
4. Insert a multi-purpose lighter (or match held by the lanyard provided) through the burner grates and near the top of the flash tube (for the module, near the top of the burner). Once a flame is visible, release the knob. If the burner fails to light within five seconds, turn the knob to OFF, wait five minutes and repeat the lighting procedure.

WARNING
When lighting, always keep face and body as far away as possible.

GENERAL GRILLING

1. After lighting, allow the grill burners to preheat for 10 minutes on the desired heat setting.
2. Place food on the grill and cook to the desired temperature or doneness, turning food halfway through cooking time. Adjust the heat setting if necessary. The burner control knob may be set to any position between HI and LO.
3. Remove food or transfer to the warming rack to keep warm.
4. Allow the grill to cool. Clean the drip tray after each use.

INFRARED SEAR BURNER
Searing steaks and other meats over the infrared sear burner to begin grilling helps seal in flavorful juices. Sear meats quickly, followed by regular grilling over the grill burners.

1. After lighting, allow the infrared sear burner to preheat for 10 minutes on HI.
2. Sear the meat for up to two minutes on each side, then move to the grilling area.

WARMING RACK
The warming rack has three positions. Warm food in the high or low position or, when not in use, place on the top support hooks for the storage position. Refer to the illustration below. From the high position, the warming rack must be removed and rotated 180° for the low position and storage position. The warming rack must be removed or in the storage position during the rotisserie operation.

ROTISSERIE GRILLING
The rotisserie rotates food in front of an infrared burner for even cooking and a more juicy taste. Additional radiant heat from the outside grill burners on LO may be used to speed up cooking time. The hood must be closed. Use for grilling large roasts and whole poultry.
When not in use, the rotisserie motor should be stored in a protected area.

1. Install the rotisserie motor on the motor bracket and plug it into the electrical outlet.
2. Insert food in the middle of the spit rod and secure with the meat forks on both ends by tightening thumbscrews. Make sure food is evenly balanced.
3. Insert the spit rod in the rotisserie motor at the desired position.
4. Place a basting pan under the food to catch drippings.
5. Push in and turn the rotisserie knob counterclockwise to HI. The rotisserie igniter is located on the rear panel next to the rotisserie burner. Refer to the illustration below.
6. Close the hood and allow the rotisserie burner to preheat for 10 minutes on the desired heat setting.
7. Place the spit rod with food into the rotisserie motor. Cook to the desired temperature or doneness.
8. To remove the spit rod, lift slightly on the rotisserie motor and pull the rod out.

ROTISSERIE POSITION
The two-position rotisserie allows for food of different sizes to cook at the proper distance from the infrared rotisserie burner. The maximum load is 25 lbs (11 kg).

1. Install the rotisserie motor in the low position for large loads or the high position for small loads. Refer to the illustrations below. The motor socket hole will line up with the lower notch of the spit saddles in the low position and the upper notch in the high position.
2. Insert the spit rod into the motor socket hole and place the rod on the appropriate notch of each spit saddle.
3. For large loads, remove the burner grates and place the basting pan on top of the briquette trays to catch drippings. For small loads, place the basting pan on top of the burner grates.

SMOKER BOX
The sealed smoker box included with the grill can hold soaked wood chips to smoke enhance foods. The smoker box may warp slightly with heat but will retain its original shape after it cools.

1. Remove one burner grate section and slide the remaining sections aside so the center is exposed. Remove a center, half-size briquette tray without a flash tube.
2. Position the smoker box in place of the briquette tray. The smoker box will line up above the burner. For best results, center the smoker box in the grill.
3. Add soaked wood chips to the smoker box.
4. Turn the control knob for the burner under the smoker box on HI. Once smoking begins, adjust heat to the desired setting.
5. Position the burner grate section over the smoker box and place food directly on the grate.
6. Every 30 to 45 minutes, slide the grate section aside to access the smoker box. Stir the wood chips and add more if needed.
7. Cook food to the desired temperature, doneness, or smoke enhancement.

CAUTION
Do not use the smoker box over the infrared sear burner.

Grill Lights
Outdoor gas grills are equipped with halogen interior lights and LED lights in the control knobs for night grilling.
Turn the interior and knob lights on and off using the button located on the front panel of the grill. Interior lights turn off automatically when the hood is closed but the control knob lights will remain on.
Interior lights require 10W, type G4 halogen bulbs and are available through an authorized Wolf dealer. For local dealer information, visit the find a showroom section of our website, wolfappliance.com.

LIGHT BULB REPLACEMENT
IMPORTANT NOTE: Use a paper towel when handling the replacement halogen bulb to keep oil on fingers from touching the bulb. Failure to do this will shorten the life of the bulb.

1. Unplug the grill from the electrical outlet and allow the halogen bulb to cool before replacing it.
2. Remove the light cover lens, by pushing in on one of the side retaining brackets with a screwdriver.
3. Remove the old halogen bulb by pulling it straight out.
4. Using a paper towel to handle the new halogen bulb, insert the bulb securely into the socket and replace the light cover lens.

****CAUTION Use caution when handling light bulbs. Halogen bulbs get hot instantly and adjacent parts may retain heat.

CARE RECOMMENDATIONS

CLEANING

Stainless steel| After the grill has cooled, use a nonabrasive stainless steel cleaner and apply with a soft lint-free cloth. To bring out the natural luster, lightly wipe the surface with a water-dampened  icrofiber cloth followed by a dry polishing chamois. Always follow the grain of stainless steel. Baked-on  residue can be removed using a mild abrasive pad with stainless steel cleaner. Do not use steel wool. It is normal for certain areas of the stainless steel to discolor due to intense heat given off by the burners.
---|---
Grill interior| Turn all grill burners on HI (including sear, but not rotisserie burner). Allow the grill to heat for 10–12 minutes with the hood closed. Turn burners OFF and allow the grill to cool completely. Remove burner grates and briquette trays. Cover the burner tubes and infrared sear burner with plastic wrap and clean interior with oven cleaner according to package directions.
Burner grates| While the grates are still hot, scrub with a grill brush and water. The steam created will loosen food particles on the briquettes and drip tray. Do not clean the burner grate section while in place over the infrared sear burner. Liquid should not come in contact with the sear burner. Grates may be rotated for cleaning.
Grill burners| Inspect the grill burners for spiders, insects, and other obstructions periodically. Clear obstructions.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Spiders and insects can nest in burners causing a fire hazard and damage to the grill.

Infrared sear burner| Clean the protective screen of the sear burner and remove trapped particles periodically. To avoid damage to the ceramic tiles, do not allow liquid to come in contact with the infrared sear burner. Do not place the briquette trays over the sear burner.
Ceramic briquettes Briquette trays| Turn all grill burners on HI (including sear, but not rotisserie burner). Allow the grill to heat for 10–12 minutes with the hood closed. Turn burners OFF and allow the grill to cool completely. Remove briquette trays and wipe clean.
Smoker box| After the grill has cooled, remove the smoker box, empty and clean with warm water and mild detergent.
Drip tray| After the grill has cooled, slide the drip tray out and wipe clean. To avoid a grease fire, the drip tray should be cleaned after each use.
