• SpeedBoost® power boost – adds extra power to a cooking zone to boil water faster and speed up high-heat tasks like searing.

• AutoChef® temperature control (11 levels) – monitors pan temperature and automatically adjusts heat to help maintain consistent frying results without constant manual changes.

• Home Connect® (Wi‑Fi connected) – enables select smart features and lets you assign functions/settings through the app for easier day-to-day use.

• Favorite Button (programmable) – one-touch access to your two most-used cooking settings (assignable in the Home Connect® app; use short/long press on the cooktop).

• Induction cooking technology – heats the cookware directly for faster response, improved temperature control, and better energy efficiency versus traditional electric radiant cooking.

• 24-inch built-in cooktop design (surface mount, without frame) – compact size for smaller kitchens, secondary cooking areas, or space-conscious remodels.

• 3 induction cooking elements – provides multiple zones for simultaneous cooking (e.g., boiling, sautéing, and warming at the same time).

• Touch control operation – smooth, integrated controls for selecting cooking zones and adjusting power levels with a clean, modern look.

• Cookware Suitability Indicator – helps confirm whether cookware is induction-compatible (ferromagnetic) to reduce guesswork.

• Residual Heat Indicator (H / h) – shows when a zone is still hot or warm to help prevent accidental burns and improve safety after cooking.

• Automatic Safety Shut‑Off / Automatic time limitation – turns off a cooking zone after extended use without changes (timing depends on the heat setting) to reduce risk if left unattended.

• Kitchen timer – independent timer for reminders (does not automatically switch off a cooking zone), helping coordinate multi-step meals.

• Overall dimensions (HxWxD) – approximately 4 1/8" x 24" x 20 9/16" for planning countertop fit and installation.

• Required cutout size (HxWxD) – approximately 4 1/8" x 22" x 19 1/4" to help ensure proper countertop opening.

• Electrical requirements (208/240V) – designed for standard North American electric cooktop supply for reliable performance.

• 30A circuit breaker requirement – supports safe, code-appropriate installation planning for the cooktop’s power needs.

• High total connected load (up to 7,200W) – provides strong overall cooking power for faster heat-up and better performance across zones.

• No plug (hardwired installation) – intended to be connected per installation instructions for a clean built-in setup.

• Power cord included (approx. 37") – helps reach the junction box location during installation (final routing depends on cabinetry layout).

• Sleek black glass cooking surface – modern appearance and typically easier wipe-down compared with raised-element electric cooktops.

• Pan-size-to-zone guidance – encourages matching cookware size to the cooking zone for better efficiency and more even results.
