Depending on the model, it is made of metal or plastic and has marks indicating different heat settings, ranging from high to simmer. You can adjust the electrical current supplied to the burner and, thus, the heating element's intensity, by turning the knob. For cooking to be exact and safe, a knob must work. Restoring control and functionality to your cooktop with a working WPW10620810 knob guarantees that you can keep using your Whirlpool range's accuracy and convenience.
