Whirlpool W3CG3014XB Manual Do Proprietário

IMPORTANT: Your cooktop is factory-set for use with Natural 
gas. If you wish to use LP gas, an LP Gas Conversion Kit is 
included with your new cooktop. See the instructions included 
with the LP Gas Conversion Kit for details on making this 
conversion.

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

The large burners (12,500 Btu/h [British Thermal Units]) provide 
the highest heat setting, and are ideal for cooking large quantities 
of food or liquid, using large pots and pans. The small burners 
(9,100 Btu/h and 6,000 Btu/h) allow more accurate simmer 
control at the lowest setting, and are ideal for cooking smaller 
quantities of food, using smaller pots and pans.

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

NOTE: Visually check that the burner has lit. If the burner does 
not ignite, listen for a clicking sound. If you do not hear the igniter 
click, turn the burner off. Check for a tripped circuit breaker or 
blown household fuse.

Check that the control knob is pressed completely down on the 
valve shaft. If the spark igniter still does not operate, call a trained 
repair specialist.

Proper grounding and polarity are necessary for correct operation 
of the electric ignition system. If the wall receptacle does not 
provide correct polarity, the igniter will become grounded and 
occasionally click, even after the burner has ignited. Contact a 
trained repair specialist to check the wall receptacle to see 
whether it is wired with the correct polarity.

1. Push in and turn knob counterclockwise to LITE.

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

2. Turn knob anywhere between HI and LO. 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. Do not use a grill or griddle accessory during a power 
failure, as the vent fan will not operate.
