Infinite Switches

There is 2 types of infinite switches. 1-cycle, and 2 cycle. The 1-cycle  infinite switch controls the single
element.  The 1-cycle has an infinite number of heat settings between the low and high positions. D etents are
found at  low and high to define minimum and maximan heat settings. Both switches are push and turn to
activate.  To turn on the  single switch, push down on the control knob and turn clockwise following the single
line graphics. (See illustrations, below)

The 2 -ycle infinite switch controls dual elements. The 2-cycle switch has an infinite number of heat settings
between the low and high positions. D etents are found at the low and high positions to define minimumand
maximum settings. To turn on the small, inner element, push down on the knob and turn in counter clockwise
following the single line graphic. (see illustration).

To turn on the bridge element, push down and turn the right rear knob clockwise to any heat setting between
low and high. The right front, right rear, and bridge elements will come on. To turn on the right rear element,
push down and turn the knob counter-clock wise to any heat setting between low and high. To turn on the
right front element, push down and turn the right front knob in eighter direction to any heat setting.
