Know before you buy
You can place your cookware anywhere on the surface. The cooktop features 56 individual induction elements that automatically detect your cookware, allowing you to use up to six pots or pans simultaneously regardless of their position.
The cooktop’s MoveMode feature automatically transfers your programmed heat settings to the new location. You do not need to manually adjust the controls when moving your cookware across the surface.
The cooktop uses Sapphire Glow lights to indicate the exact position of your cookware. These lights illuminate on the surface to confirm the pan is detected and ready for heating.
Yes, because this is an induction cooktop, you must use magnetic-based cookware such as cast iron or magnetic stainless steel. If a magnet sticks to the bottom of your pan, it will work on this surface.
TeppanyakiPro allows you to easily move ingredients on and off the heat. It is specifically designed to help you manage different temperature zones for searing and keeping food warm during complex cooking tasks.
Yes, the cooktop is Home Connect enabled. This allows you to monitor your cooktop status and receive notifications through the Home Connect app on your smartphone or tablet.
