This kind of electric heating elements use a ribbon wire
located under the glass surface to provide the heat for
cooking. The heating elements will cycle on and off,
depending on the power level set and displayed by the
control.
Temperature limiters
Each radiant heater has its own temperature limiter to
protect the glass cooking surface from extremely high
temperatures. The limiter will operate automatically by
cycling the element.
Multiple heating elements (dual or triple) consist in
two or three radiant ribbon elements within the same
heating area. Either the small (main inner element)
or the outer ones may be selected for use. The inner
elements always work when an outer one is selected.
A special multiple heating element consist in two
independent radiant ribbon elements which can be
connected enabling a bridge element in order to have a
large heating area.
When the bridge is enabled, the whole area work as
a single unit, it’s not possible anymore to set different
power levels on the three elements connected.
All the settings described in the following table are
recommended, provided that the element has not been
preheated before. The values in the table represent
