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 
indicative settings, given that the actual values may 
depend on:
