Put burner caos on each burner
base. Place burner grates over burner bases
and caps.
Cooktop burners use electronic
igniters in
place of standing pilots. When the cooktop
control knob is pushed in and turned to the
'LITE" position, the system creates a spark to
light the burner. This sparking continues until
the control knob is turned to the desired
setting.

Check the operation of the
cooktop burners. Push in and turn each
control knob to 'LITE" position. The flame
should light within 4 seconds. Do Not leave
the knob in the "LITE" position after burner

If burners do not light properly, turn control
knob to the "OFF" position. Check that
burner cap is in the proper position. Check
that power supply cord is plugged
in and
that circuit breaker or house fuse has not
blown. Check that the shutoff valve is in the
"ON" position. Check operation
again. If a
burner does not light at this point, contact
your Whirlpool dealer for assistance.

b. Quickly turn knob down to LOWEST
POSITION.
c. If burner goes out, readjust valve as
follows:
Remove the surface burner control knob.
Insert a flat-blade
screwdriver into the
hollow valve stem and engage the slotted
screw inside. Flame size can be increased
or decreased
with the turn of the screw.
Adjust flame until you can quickly turn knob
from "LITE" to LOWEST POSITION without
extinguishing the flame. Flame should be as
small as possible without going out.
