Topics:
- Griddle does not heat
- Griddle is not heating evenly
- Uneven heat across griddle surface
- Griddle does not get to set temperature
Cause:
- Use and care issues, such as spillover
- Unit issues, such as spark module, switch, electrode/igniter, gas supply, thermostat, or DSI
- Installation issues, such as proper wiring and polarity of outlet if constant sparking
- Faulty griddle thermostat
Troubleshooting:
Heat is distributed evenly across a Wolf griddle.
- The griddle is usually hotter toward the rear as heat travels toward the rear vent.
- Refer to Cooking with a Griddle.
If the griddle is heating unevenly:
- In a new installation, ensure the unit's power supply source is to specification.
- Check for proper wiring and polarity of the outlet if there is constant sparking.
- An electrician may be needed.
- Ensure the unit is configured for the proper gas type. If a conversion is required, refer to:
- Ensure the control knob is not stuck.
- Remove the control knob and reinstall.
- Push in on the knob and then release. The knob should slightly spring back into place.
- Reset the unit's power supply at the circuit breaker.
Refer to the product installation guide or use and care guide for further information.
