This induction hob of the Simplicity 2.1 collection incorporates sensor-supported process automation to simplify control. The large cooking surface has four separate heating elements with integrated sensors, which detect the position and size of the pots automatically and activate the control. Interactive graphics indicate the active heating zones and follow the pot movements. An unobtrusive pattern characterises the hob surface, protects it and separates the operating elements visually from the cooking area.
