Wolf C72SS operation manual Maintenance & Adjustments, Exterior Cleaning, Stainless Steel, Flue

Clean cast iron open top grates with a mild soap and water solution. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a clean, water-absorbent towel. Immediately after drying (with grates still removed from the range top), season grates lightly with liquid vegetable or spray-type cooking oil.

After seasoning, replace grates onto the range. Turn on all open top sections to LOW and allow them to burn for at least 15 minutes before using pots or pans on the range top. Season the open top grates after each cleaning. Failure to season grates will cause grates to rust.

To remove discoloration, use a nonabrasive cleaner. Always rub with the grain of the metal. Stainless steel and chrome areas of the range can be polished by using a soft dry cloth. If needed, add stainless steel polish to the soft cloth.

EXTERIOR CLEANING

Daily

Clean exterior finish with a mild solution of soap or grease-dissolving cleaner.

STAINLESS STEEL

Here are a few simple cleaning procedures that have been found effective for keeping stainless steel equipment clean, sparkling and bright.

General Cleaning

Use ordinary soap or detergent and water for routine cleaning of stainless steel. To prevent water spots and streaks, rinse thoroughly with warm water and wipe dry with a soft clean cloth. The addition of a rinsing agent will also help prevent spotting. Do not pressure wash any portion of the range.

Fingerprints

Fingerprints are sometimes a problem on highly polished surfaces of stainless steel. They can be minimized by applying a cleaner that will leave a thin oily or waxy film. To use these cleaners, simply wipe on and remove excess with a soft dry cloth. After using, subsequent fingerprints will usually disappear when wiped lightly with a soft cloth or with a cloth containing a little of the cleaner. If the surface is especially dirty to start, wash first with soap or detergent and water.

Heat Tint

Straw-colored or slightly darkened areas may appear on stainless steel in and around ovens and ranges where temperatures reach 500°F (260°C) or more. This "heat tint" is caused by a slight oxidation of the stainless steel and is not harmful.

To control or minimize this condition, never use more heat than is absolutely necessary.
