Setting the Bridge Burner
The Bridge Burner should be used with
rectangular shaped cookware. Cookware like
a cast-iron Griddle is designed specically 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
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 the Bridge Burner
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 Figure 2). Note: All
electronic surface ignitors will spark at the same time. However, only the
selected surface Burner will lite.
3. Visually check that the rear Burner has lit.
4. Continue to rotate the gas control knob counterclockwise past the rst LO.
5. Visually check that both the rear and center Burners are lit.
6. When both Burners are lit, continue to turn the control knob
counterclockwise to adjust to the desired ame size for both Burners
together. Note: The markings between bridge HI and bridge LO settings
on the control knob are used for adjusting the ame size for both burners.
7. Add the front Burner if needed. Once lit, visually adjust the ame size of
the front Burner to match the ame size of the Bridge Burner.
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).
Note: If only the rear surface Burner is needed, adjust the settings between
the 1st HI and LO.
Note: The front Burner may be added to the Bridge Burner by setting the left
front gas Control Knob.
