Setting the Bridge Burner
The Bridge Burner should be used with rectangular shaped
cookware. Cookware like a cast-iron Griddle is designed
specifi 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 1).
2. Release the knob and
rotate to the LITE
position.
3. Visually check that the
left rear Burner has lit.
4. Continue to rotate
the gas control knob
counterclockwise to the
“HI bridge” position
(Figure 2).
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 fl ame
size for both burners together.
Note: The markings between the “HI bridge” and the “LO
bridge” settings adjust the fl ame size for both burners.
7. Add the left front Burner if needed. Once lit, visually
adjust the fl ame size of the left front burner to match
the fl ame size of the bridge burner.
Important notes:
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).
When setting any surface control knob to the LITE •
position, all electronic surface ignitors will spark at the
same time. However, only the surface burner you are
setting will ignite.
If only the left rear surface Burner is needed, adjust the •
settings between the 1st HI and LO.
The left front Burner may be added to the Bridge Burner •
by setting the left front gas Control Knob.
