Cooktop Operation

BRIDGE-ZONE ELEMENT

The bridge-zone element provides an oblong heating area for use with a griddle, open roaster or fish poacher.

To activate the bridge-zone heating element, touch the OFF ON touch pad of either control that corresponds with the bridge-zone element. Refer to the illustration below.

Set the heat setting for either the front or rear element as described on page 10.

Touch BRIDGE. The bridge element and the element that was not activated will both be set to the same heat setting as the first element. Lights will remain on under the front, rear and bridge element touch pads to indicate that the entire bridge-zone element is on.

Changing the heat setting of the entire bridge-zone element is done the same as for a single element. All three elements maintain the same heat setting.

Touch BRIDGE again to turn off the bridge element. The light under the bridge element touch pad will go out. The front and rear elements will remain at the current heat setting and will become independent of one another.

BRIDGE-ZONE ELEMENT GRIDDLE USE

IMPORTANT NOTE: Always use a setting of 8 bars or less on the bridge-zone element when cooking on a griddle. Higher settings are not needed and can damage the cooktop and cookware.

To preheat the griddle, set the bridge-zone element at 14 bars for 5 minutes, then turn the heat down to 8 bars for cooking.

A griddle, open roaster or fish poacher should not be used when the center bridge element is off or with any other combination of heating elements.
