Setting the Bridge Burner (some models)
The Bridge Burner should be used with rectangular shaped cookware.
Cookware like the cast-iron Griddle that is supplied with your range is designed
specifically for best results with the Bridge Burner.
The Bridge Burner feature may be used to combine the cooking power of 2 or if
needed 3 gas surface Burners located along the left-hand side of the glass
cooktop. The left rear and left center Burners are controlled by the left rear surface
Control Knob. In addition the left front Burner may be added to the Bridge Burner
with the left front gas Control Knob (See Figure 1 ).
Operating the Bridge Burner (some models)
1. Push the left rear surface control knob in and turn counterclockwise out of
the OFF position (See Figure 2).
2. Release the knob and rotate to the LITE position (See Figures 2 & 3). Note:
All electronic surface ignitors will spark at the same time. However, only the
selected surface Burner will lite.
3. Visually check that the left rear Burner has lit.
4. Continue to rotate the gas control knob clockwise past the first LO setting to
the arrow marked BRIDGE.
5. Visually check that both the left rear and left center Burners are lit.
6. When both burners are lit, continue to turn the control knob
counterclockwise to adjust to the desired flame size for both burners
together. Note: The markings between the 2nd HI and LO settings on the left
rear control knob adjust the flame size for both burners. Use the guide marks
between the 2nd HI and LO settings and adjust the flame size as needed
(Refer to Figure 3).
7. Add the left front Burner if needed. Once lit, visually adjust the flame size of
the left front Burner to match the flame size of the Bridge Burner.

Grate. DO NOT cook with any of the surface control knobs in the LITE
position (The electronic ignitor will continue to spark if the knob is left in the
LITE position).
