Setting Surface Controls (cont'd)
Setting the Bridge Burner
The Bridge Burner should be used with rectangular shaped cookware. Cookware like the cast-iron Griddle that is
supplied with your cooktop 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.
Operating only the Left rear Gas Surface Burner
1. Place cooking utensil centered over the left-rear surface Burner
Grate.
2. Push the left rear surface control knob in and turn
counterclockwise out of the OFF position (See Figure).
3. Release the knob and rotate to the LITE position. Note: All
electronic surface ignitors will spark at the same time. However,
only the left rear Burner will ignite.
4. Visually check that the left-rear burner has lit. Adjust the flame
size by turning the control knob between the first HI and LO
settings (See Figure). DO NOT cook with the surface control knob
in the LITE position (The electronic ignitor will continue to spark if
the knob is left in the LITE position).
