Cooktop control made easy.
If only there was an eaiser way to select hob settings. Thanks to the intuitive control panel and the supportive lightline, DirectSelect makes it quicker and easier to select cooking zones and set the specific power level.
Cook easily with your large pots and pans.
Want to cook with an oversized pot, or use a roasting tray on your induction hob? Use CombiZone to combine two of your circular cooking zones. That gives you more space and flexibility to heat your large cookware.
The easiest way to control your oven hood.
Now all you need to focus on is cooking your favourite dish. Your matching hood is automatically controlled by your hob and a connected Home Connect account. This is all thanks to an algorithm that adjusts the power of your hood, based on your hob settings. Your kitchen stays free of odours and vapour, and the hood stays free from finger prints. Welcome to the easy way of cooking.
Remote Diagnostics: Support served smarter.
It can be stressful if your home appliances don't work the way they're supposed to. Remote Diagnostics is here to help. Simply call the Home Connect hotline and make an appointment for a remote diagnosis of your connected appliance via the Internet. With your permission, the Bosch customer service team can then remotely screen your appliance, locate the problem area and give you the clear advice you need. In the event that the problem can not be solved this way, a Bosch service technician can be informed and come to your home to resolve all the issues, equipped with all the necessary parts already in hand.
Steer your hood by your hob.
Control the functions of your hood via your hob. Both the electric hob and the associated hood are equipped with a Wi-Fi module, enabling them to interact. As soon as your hob is activated, your hood is also switched on and starts extracting steam as soon as you start cooking. When you're done cooking, the hood automatically switches off after a brief run-on time, so you can be sure that unpleasant kitchen odours really do disappear. If you want to control the hood directly, just activate manual mode on the hob controls with the touch of a button. You can then control your hood's power levels via the user interface on your hob. In addition to the extraction rate, you can also control the hood lighting via the hob. With just one set of controls, you control it all: your hob and your extractor hood.
Speed up your cooking.
When you want to get quick and easy meals on the table even faster, PowerBoost can help. This practical feature adds a boost of power for ultra-quick heating. Use it on your induction hob to boil large quantities of water - and heat almost 35% faster compared to the highest power level.
Drop what you are doing.
Sometimes things require your attention while cooking. Now you can easily pause the heating and block all buttons on your hob. Whether it is the doorbell or a phone call, or you just want to wipe up any spills or splashes from the hob surface. Simply continue cooking in the next ten minutes.
Cookings starts much faster.
The QuickStart function detects where you have placed the pot and automatically displays the corresponding cooking zone on the control interface. You can get started straight away and select the desired cooking level for your pot without delay.
Stores your control settings.
Have you ever unintendedly switched off your hob and all settings were gone? With Restart the cooktop saves your previous settings and restores them in case you switch your cooktop on again within four seconds.
