ELECTRONICS
This section describes the basic operation of the CE Series electronics and how the touch pad responds to input
commands. The control board receives touch sensitive input and triggers a command in the power board. The
power board uses triacs and relays to maintain the correct power at the element assembly.
Touch Pads
Global Touch Pads
LOCK - Locks or unlocks the entire cooktop. Touch and hold for 3 seconds. Acceptance beep when state•
changes. Padlock is displayed when locked.
ALL OFF - Disables entire cooktop. Red circle displayed when any element assembly is energized.•
“+” - Adds time to the count down timer. Valid Selection beep to acknowledge touch.•
“-” - Decreases time to the count down timer. Valid Selection beep to acknowledge touch.•
TIMER - Activate and deactivate the timer. Valid Selection beep to acknowledge touch.•
Control Zone Pads:
ON/OFF - Enables or disables individual control zone.•
SIM - sets power to level 1.•
MLT - sets power to level 1.•
HI - sets power to level 10.•
ZONE 2 - Activates Zone 2 on hobs with two or more zones.•
ZONE 3 - Activates Zone 2 and 3 on hobs with three zones.•
BRIDGE - Activates vertically adjacent element assemblies to same power level.•
‘’ . . . .” - Sets power to levels 2 through 9.•
Annunciator:
Adjust annunciator volume and frequency in user options mode. See Frequency Duration and Selection Chart•
on the next page.
Cooktop must be in idle mode to adjust annunciator.•
Factory default setting for volume is medium.•
Factory default setting for frequency is medium.•
Low frequency is 1.5 kHz. Medium frequency is 2.0 kHz. High Frequency is 2.5 kHz.•
HOT Surface Display:
LED is time activated between 7 seconds and 370 seconds depending on what power level is selected.•
LED turns off after allotted time based about what power level is selected.•
LED will stay on a maximum of 60 minutes after all element assemblies are off.•

TROUBLESHOOTING
This section of the manual contains troubleshooting information which will help the Certified Service Technician trou-
bleshoot a Wolf CE Series. The table of contents below shows how the troubleshooting section is laid out.
ELECTRIC
Power board and control board share the software for controlling the cooktop. If a logic or programing issue is sus-
pected replace the control board first as it is the less expensive part.
Error E6 occurs whenever cooktop is connected to 120 VAC. When using the unit in Showroom mode on 120 VAC,
after the error occurs proceed with the steps to place the cooktop in Showroom mode. The error clears once in
Showroom mode.
•TO AVOID ELECTRIC SHOCK, POWER TO THE UNIT MUST BE DISCONNECTED WHENEVER SERVICING
AND/OR ACCESSING COMPONENTS.
•COOKTOP SURFACES AND COMPONENTS GET HOT DURING USE OF THE APPLIANCE.
•PULLING A UNIT FROM ITS INSTALLATION SHOULD ONLY BE PERFORMED BY AN CERTIFIED SERVICE
TECHNICIAN OR INSTALLER.
•When working on the cooktop and components, be careful handling sheet metal parts. They may have
sharp edges.
