The Bosch Series 2 PUG61RAA5B Induction hob: Faster than gas and ceramic hobs, induction is easier to clean and more energy efficient.
Plug & Play - No need for an electrician to make changes to electric wiring
Plug & Play induction hobs are easily installed into an existing plug socket. It’s worth noting that as these products are plugged into mains electricity, the nominal power is limited to 3.7kW. This means when cooking with more than two pots at the same time, the hob triggers automatic power management, which may be inconvenient for large households that frequently cook larger meals with many pots at the same time.
Induction Technology - Faster cooking, reduced energy consumption. This is Induction
Induction hobs generate heat only where it is needed – in the base of the pan. What does this mean for you? More safety and more convenience. The lower temperature keeps both big and little hands safe from burning. Not only that, but an induction hob brings two litres of water to a boil twice as fast as a glass-ceramic hob, which also saves a great deal of energy.
PowerBoost (Induction) - Speed up your cooking
When you want to get quick and easy meals on the table even faster, PowerBoost can help. This practical feature adds a boost of power for ultra-quick heating. Use it on your induction hob to boil large quantities of water – and heat almost 35% faster compared to the highest power level.
QuickStart - Cooking starts much faster
The QuickStart function detects where you have placed the pot and automatically displays the corresponding cooking zone on the control interface. You can get started straight away and select the desired cooking level for your pot without delay.
