Steam, grease, and cooking odours are drawn down through the hob and filtered at the source, keeping your kitchen air cleaner without losing overhead cabinet space. Carbon black matt finish: Bosch's Matt Design uses a carbon black matt glass-ceramic surface that is specially engineered to minimise the appearance of everyday scratches and fingerprints. The frameless construction and front-facing extraction grille give the hob a flush, uninterrupted look across the worktop. PerfectFry Plus and CombiZone flexibility: PerfectFry Plus uses an automatic temperature sensor to regulate heat during frying, reducing the risk of scorching without constant monitoring. CombiZone allows two adjacent cooking zones to be merged into one larger zone, accommodating griddle pans, fish kettles, or any oversized cookware that spans the 80 cm width. Smart controls and Home Connect: DirectSelect touch controls sit along the front panel for straightforward zone and power selection across 17 variable power levels per zone, including 9 main and 8 intermediate steps. Home Connect app compatibility lets you monitor and adjust settings via iOS or Android, and includes a programmable Favourite Button for one-touch access to Pan Boost mode. AutoOn extraction and filter system: AutoOn automatically activates the ventilation when a cooking zone heats up and continues running for up to 12 minutes after cooking finishes in ducted mode, or 30 minutes in recirculated mode. The integrated stainless-steel grease filters use 12 filtration layers with a black top layer and achieve 94% grease filtration efficiency. The included cleanAir odour filters provide approximately 360 hours of cooking time before replacement is needed.
