The hob has five cooking zones, including two Flex zones and a ring zone triple that supports regular to extra large cookware.

The two Flex zones allow you to place cookware of any shape or size anywhere within the 40 cm long zone. When large cookware is used, the hob can automatically join two zones into a large continuous zone, and settings adapt to the cookware size.

Twist Pad® is a removable magnetic knob that directly controls the power levels of the cooking zones. It works with a two coloured display that clearly shows which functions are active.

With a connected Home Connect account, you can remotely monitor whether the hob is switched off, access recipes and additional functions, configure the Favourite Button, use dish assistance, control Pan Boost, enable Hob Hood Control and Smart Hood Automatic with compatible hoods, and keep the appliance software up to date.

Safety features include 2 stage residual heat indicators, a separate residual heat indicator, a control panel lock to prevent unintended activation, a pause function, a main switch to turn off all zones and a safety cut–out facility that stops heating after a preset time if not used.
