give you flexibility and control of your cooktop, allowing you to cook at four different temperatures simultaneously.

catches 96% of grease and holds both solids and liquids.

Charcoal Filter

(optional accessory) helps to neutralize unpleasant odors from the extraction system, reducing the chances of them lingering or being recirculated into your home.

Power Boost Function

allows you to exceed the maximum heat-level setting for up to 5 minutes, helping you get to a rapid boil.

Frameless Design

Works with Most High-Quality Cookware

lets you know at a glance when a zone is on.

Hot-Surface Indicator Light

provides a clear signal that a cooking surface is on or still hot to the touch.

Control Lock for Cleaning
