Whirlpool WFG231LVS Benutzerhandbuch

Electric igniters automatically light the surface burners when 
control knobs are turned to LITE.

Before setting a control knob, place filled cookware on the grate. 
Do not operate a burner using empty cookware or without 
cookware on the grate.

IMPORTANT: Do not lift the cooktop on sealed burner models. 
Lifting the cooktop can lead to damage and improper operation 
of the range.

1. Push in and turn knob counterclockwise to LITE.

All 4 surface burners will click. Only the burner with the 
control knob turned to LITE will produce a flame.

2. Turn knob to anywhere between HI and LO. The clicking will 

stop. Use the following chart as a guide when setting heat 
levels.

In case of prolonged power failure, the surface burners can be lit 
manually. Hold a lit match near a burner and turn knob 
counterclockwise to LITE. After burner lights, turn knob to 
setting.

IMPORTANT: Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and 
ventilation air around the burner grate edges.
