Surface Cooking (continued)
Ceramic Glass Cooktop (some models)(continued)
Modems with Emectronic Surface Emement Controls (ESEC)
Operating the ESEC Bridge Surface Radiant Element (some modems)
Tile cooktop isequipped with a "Bridge" surface element located at the left front and middle posP
tions. The Bridge can be used when cooking with rectangular (like a griddle) or oval shaped cook-
ware. The element will maintain an even temperature setting across both portions of the Bridge. If
needed for normal cookware, the Bridge element can work like a single element without the Bridge.
Bridge element operation symbols are located on the control panel on each side of the Bridge ele-
ment control knob. These symbols indicate the direction to turn the control knob when operating the
Bridge element. The symbol in figure 1 indicates that only the single portion of tile Bridge element
will heat (see figure 3). The symbol in figure 2 indicates that both the single and Bridge portions of
the element will heat together (see figure 4). You may switch from either of these settings at any
time during cooking with the Bridge element.
To Operate the Bridge Surface Elements:
1. Placecorrectly sized cookware on tile radiant surface element.
2. Pushin and turn the surface control knob counterclockwise to heat the portion of the Bridge ele-
ment for normal shaped cookware or clockwise for larger or rectangular shaped cookware.
3. Usethe ESECdigital display window for the desired setting. Turn tile knob to adjust the setting if
needed. Start most cooking operations on a higher setting and then turn to a lower setting to fin-
ish cooking. Eachsurface element provides a (onstant amount of heat at each setting. A glowing
red surface heating area extending beyond tile bottom edge of tile cookware indicates the cook-
ware istoo small. Pleasenote that not all cookware will fit the Bridge element correctly.
3. When cooking hascompleted, turn the surface control knob to OFFbefore removing the cook-
ware. Note: The HE messagewill appear after turning the control knob to OFFif tile cooktop is
still hot and will remain on until heating surface area has cooled sufficiently.
The BRIDGEelement may also be used in combination with the left rear single element (see figure
S}. Becausethese element have 2 different controls, one element can be used to cook while the
other element may be usedto keep food warm.
Radiant surface elements may appear to have (ooled after they have been turned
off. The gJass surface may stitt be hot and burns may occur if tile glass surface istouched before
it has cooled sufficiently.
