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.
