AEG HK654200FB 60cm Touch Control Induction Hob - Black

The details

This AEG induction hob brings flexible cooking to your kitchen. The stylish design will fit in to your kitchen seamlessly and the super smooth surface alongside modern touch controls, makes it super easy to wipe clean.

It has four cooking zones in a variety of sizes to fit all your different pots and pans. And there's 14 power stages, something to suit every dish. It features an intelligent AutoMax function which brings cooking zones up to the boil and it will then reduce the heat to a pre-selected power level for the remainder of the cooking time.

Being induction, this hob is much safer and more energy efficient for the home. It creates a magnetic field between the hob and the steel or iron pan. This means it is the pan which is heated, not the hob surface. There will be some residual heat, but the hob will let you know when it's cool to the touch. This smart hob wont waste any energy trying to heat up until it detects a pan, which is ideal if you've placed your pan on the wrong cooking zone.

It's packed full of tech to reduce the amount of energy you use when cooking. It has an Oko Timer, this enables you to use energy more efficiently by using the hobs residual heat during the last few minutes of cooking. Each cooking zones residual heat is monitored by an OptiHeat control, this way you can make the most out of the remaining heat. There's also a handy CountUp timer which starts at zero and keeps counting up until you stop or reset it, letting you easily monitor the progress of your dish. If for any reason you have to stop cooking there's a handy stop and go with keep warm function, when you return to your dish the hob will resume to its previously selected settings. There's a child lock for added safety, so no settings can be accidentally modified and if you happen to leave the hob on, there's no need to worry as it will automatically switch off after a period of time.
