Integrated inductionAir System

The integrated inductionAir system combines high-performance induction cooking with a powerful downdraft extractor built directly into the hob.

Steam, smoke, and cooking odours are captured at the source, ensuring efficient extraction without the need for an overhead hood. This allows for greater design freedom, especially in kitchen islands and open-plan spaces.

Elegant Matt Black Finish

The sophisticated Matt Black surface is designed to elevate the look of your kitchen while offering practical benefits.

Its matte texture helps reduce the visibility of fingerprints and minor scratches, keeping your hob looking cleaner for longer. It is also easy to wipe down, helping maintain a flawless finish with minimal effort.

flexInduction Cooking

With flexInduction, the hob automatically adapts to your cookware.

Whether you are using small pans or large roasting dishes, the flexible cooking zones allow you to place pots and pans wherever you need them within the designated area, giving you maximum freedom while cooking.

XL flexZones

The expanded XL flexZones provide significantly more space for larger cookware.

Perfect for big pots, griddles, or multiple pans, these extended zones give you up to 25% more usable cooking area, making it easier to prepare complex meals or cook for larger households.

fryingSensor Pro

Achieve consistent cooking results with fryingSensor Pro.

This intelligent system monitors and controls the temperature of your pan, helping to prevent overheating and ensuring your food is cooked evenly and precisely every time.

touchSlider Controls

The touchSlider interface allows you to control each cooking zone with simple fingertip movement.

Adjust power levels quickly and accurately by sliding or tapping, giving you intuitive control over your cooking at all times.

Home Connect

With Home Connect, your hob becomes part of your smart kitchen.

Connect the appliance to your smartphone or tablet to access additional features, monitor cooking settings, and integrate your hob into a connected home environment.

Powerful Integrated Extraction

Despite its compact design, the integrated ventilation system delivers strong and efficient performance.

With an extraction capacity of up to 500 m³/h, it effectively removes steam and odours directly from the cooking surface, helping to keep your kitchen air clean and fresh.

Convertible Installation

The EX81AHL26E offers flexible installation options, allowing it to be configured for either ducted extraction or recirculation, depending on your kitchen layout and requirements.
