The
Bridge
Surface
Radiant
Element
The cooktop is equipped with a "BRIDGE" surface
element located at the left front and middle (See Fig. 10)
positions. The Bridge can be used when cooking with
rectangular (like a griddle) or oval shaped cookware (Fig.
10). The element will maintain an even temperature
setting across both portions of the Bridge. If needed for
normal cookware, the Bridge element can work like a
single element without the Bridge (See Fig. 8).
The Dual
Surface
Radiant
Element
The cooktop is equipped with a dual radiant surface element
located at the right front (See Fig. 4) position. Symbols on the
control panel are used to indicate which coil of the dual radiant
element will heat. The symbol shown in Figure 1 indicates that
only the inner coil will heat. The symbol shown in Figure 4
indicates that both inner and outer coils will heat. You may
switch from either coil setting at any time during cooking.
To
Operate
the
Dual Surface
Element:
1.
Place correctly sized cookware on the dual surface
element.
2.
Push in and turn the control knob counterclockwise
(See
Fig. 2) for smaller cookware or clockwise (Bee Fig. 5) for
larger cookware.
3.
Use the ESEC digital display window for the desired
setting. Turn (do not push) the knob to adjust the setting if
needed. Start most cooking operations on a higher setting
and then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking. Each
surface element provides a constant amount of heat at
each setting. A glowing red surface heating area extending
beyond the bottom edge of the cookware indicates the
cookware is too small for the surface heating area.
4.
When cooking has completed, turn the surface control
knob to OFF before removing the cookware. Note: The
HE message will appear after turning the control knob to
OFF if the cooktop is still hot and will remain on until the
radiant heating surface area has cooled sufficiently. Note:
See page 8, Figure 5 for recommended control settings.
Radiant surface elements may appear to have
cooled after they have been turned off. The glass surface
may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is
touched before it has cooled sufficiently.

Figure 9
Bridge element operation symbols are located on the
control panel on each side of the Bridge element control
knob. These symbols indicate the direction to turn the
control knob when operating the Bridge element. The
symbol in Figure 7 indicates that only the single portion
of the Bridge element will heat (See Fig. 8). The symbol
in Figure 9 indicates that both the single and Bridge
portions of the element will heat together (Fig. 10). You
may switch from either of these settings at any time
during cooking with the Bridge element.
