Questions
about E22.

Can I clear E22 myself?
Move any pan or utensil off the keypad. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
What sets off E22 on a Wolf induction cooktop?
A key the control reads as pressed and held. A pan slid onto the keypad while the top is unlocked is the everyday cause Wolf names.
Will locking my Wolf CI cooktop prevent E22?
Wolf ties the error to cookware left on the pad while the cooktop is unlocked, so keeping the keypad clear, and locked when idle, removes the usual trigger.
Why does E22 on my Wolf CI induction cooktop come back after I clear the keypad?
Wolf reads E22 as a key the control believes is held down. If the pad is clear and dry and a breaker reset still brings E22 back, the key reading itself needs testing on a visit.
