Siemens flexInduction cooktop is designed for greater flexibility when cooking

• flexInduction – Smart cooking zone that adapts to your cookware
• The touchSlider allows the hob temperature to be controlled by entering it directly or by moving the slider with a single finger.
• fryingSensor – Avoids scorching by keeping your pan temperature constant.
• powerBoost – Increases the power of an induction zone by up to 50%.
• Safely shuts off the cooking zone - Timer with switch-off function.

Usage convenience

• touchSlider control: directly control the power with the imprinted touch bar.
• 17 power levels: precisely adapt the heat with 17 power levels (9 main levels and 8 intermediate levels).
• Timer for all zones : switches off the cooking zone at the end of the time set (e.g. for boiled eggs).
• Acoustic Signal : an alarm sounds at the end of the time set (e.g. for pasta).

Time saving & efficiency

• Power boost setting : boil water faster thanks to 50% more energy than at the highest standard level.
• quickStart function: when switching on, the hob automatically selects the cooking zone with cookware (when placed on a zone whilst the hob is off).
• reStart function: in case of unintentional switch-off, this feature restores all previous settings by switching on the hob again within 4 seconds

• Automatic safety switch off: for safety reasons, heating stops after a preset time if not used (possible to customise).
• Energy Consumption Display: shows the electricity consumption of the last cooking process.

What is an induction hob?

An induction hobs heat the pan not the hob using an electrical current.

Induction hobs can heat a pan faster than a traditional gas or electric hob, and are more energy efficient.  An induction hob can only be used with induction compatible pans.
