To Operate the Bridge
Surface
Element:
1.
Place correctly sized eookware on the Bridge surface
element.
2.
Push in and turn the control knob counterclockwise
(See
Figs. 1 and 2) to heat the portion of the Bridge element for
normal shaped cookware or clockwise (See Figs, 3 and 4)
for larger or rectangular shaped cookware.
3.
Turn (do not push) the knob to adjust the setting if needed.
The Element On light will come on. 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. Please
note that not all cookware will fit the Bridge element
correctly.
4.
When cooking has completed, turn the surface control
knob to OFF before removing the cookware. The Element
On light will turn off. The Hot Surface light will remain on
until the eooktop has cooled.

J The BRIDGE element may also be used in combination with
the left rear single element. Because these elements have 2

different controls, one element can be used to cook while the
other element may be used to keep food warm (See Pig. 5).
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.
Using
Proper
Cookware
Cookware should have flat
bottoms that make good
contact with the entire
surface heating element.
Check for flatness by
rotating a ruler across the
bottom of the cookware
(See Figures 6 & 7).
Figure 6
Be sure to follow the manufacturer's
recommendations
with any cookware used on or inside the range. When
using the cooktop, be sure to use ONLY cookware
approved by the manufacturer for use on ceramic
smoothtops! If you are not sure whether the cookware is
safe for use on a ceramic smoothtop, contact the
manufacturer prior to the first use.
Note: The size and type of cookware used will influence
the setting needed for best cooking results.
