How to Light the Bridge Burner
WARNING
flames not covered by
cookware present a risk of
fire or clothing ignition. The
bridge burner should be used
only with the griddle in place.
Failure to do so may result in
serious injury.
■
The front and rear round
burners of the bridge burner
can be operated individually for cooking. Operation
of the bridge burner to heat your Preseasoned Chef's
Griddle requires use of both front and rear burner
knobs.
Top-of-Range Cookware
Aluminum: Medium-weight cookware is recommended
because it heats quickly and evenly. Most foods brown
evenly in an aluminum skillet. Use saucepans with tight-
fitting lids when cooking with minimum amounts of water.
Stainless Steel: This metal alone has poor heating
properties and is usually combined with copper,
aluminum or other metals for improved heat distribution.
Combination metal skillets usually work satisfactorily if
they are used with medium heat as the manufacturer
recommends.
Cast-Iron: If heated slowly, most skillets will give
satisfactory results.

Stove Top Grills

Do not use an after-market stove top grill on your gas
surface burners. A stove top grill will cause incomplete
combustion resulting in carbon monoxide levels above
allowable standards. This could be hazardous to your
health.
Using a Wok
Use only a flat-bottomed wok with a diameter of 14 inches
or less. Make sure the wok bottom sits flat on the grate.
Do not use a wok support ring. Placing the ring over the
burner or grate may cause the burner to work improperly,
resulting in carbon monoxide levels above allowable
standards. This could be hazardous to your health.
In Case of a Power Failure
In case of a power failure, you can light the surface
burners on your range with a match. Hold a lit match
to the burner ports, then slowly turn the control knob to
the LITE position. Use extreme caution when lighting
burners this way.

Burner
To Light the Bridge Burner:
■
Position the griddle over the left grate, observing the
'FRONT' and 'BACK' indications on the griddle.
■
Light the rear burner by turning the knob to the LITE
position. Continue turning the knob to the Griddle
Burner HI setting to light the bridge burner.
■
Light the front burner by turning the knob to the LITE
Bridge
position. Once lit, turn the knob further to the Griddle
Burner
Burner HI setting.
■
Adjust knob settings and preheat the griddle according
to the table for the Preseasoned Chef's Griddle.
■
For uniform griddle temperatures, be sure the front
and rear knob settings are the same.
Enamelware: Under some conditions, the enamel of some
cookware may melt. Follow cookware manufacturer's
recommendations for cooking methods.
Glass: There are two types of glass cookware—those
for oven use only and those for top-of-range cooking
(saucepans, coffee and teapots). Glass conducts heat
very slowly.
Heatproof Glass Ceramic: Can be used for either surface
or oven cooking. It conducts heat very slowly and cools very
slowly. Check cookware manufacturer's directions to be
sure it can be used on gas ranges.
Use a flat-bottomed wok.
Surface burners in use when an electrical power failure
occurs will continue to operate normally.
