Highlights
Features
Easy and intuitive control
With Virtual Flame Technology ™ you can enjoy the intuitive visual control of flames. LED lighting in front of the burners glows like a real gas flame to clearly show if they're on or off, giving added peace of mind.
Precise Power Control & Easier Cleaning
Choose between a removable magnetic analog knob and digital touch controls. And because it can be completely detached it also makes it easier to clean the entire surface of the cooktop.
Merge Elements
Use your oversized pots and pans to cook without worrying about evenly distributed heat.The FlexCook Zone is a large, open area that offers greater flexibility for cooking multiple dishes, by bridging two left elements to create one large element. It can accommodate different sizes of cookware to cook everything evenly and efficiently without “dead zones”.
Remote & convenient cooktop monitoring
Wi-Fi Connectivity maximizes safety and offers peace of mind by letting you remotely monitor the cooktop at any time using using the SmartThings app*, while setting the cooking timer and receiving alerts when it finishes.
* Available on iOS and Android devices. Each device must be connected to Wi-Fi or other wireless network.
One-touch control of both cooktop & hood
Auto Connectivity* aligns the hood and cooktop’s status. So you can control the hood using the one-touch control of the cooktop, instantly turning them both ‘On’ or ‘Off’, for the ultimate in cooking convenience.
* Only available when used in combination with a Samsung hood.
Intensive power, extra flexibility
A high power 4800 W 7/11” Dual Burner combines intense heat and precise control for maximum cooking efficiency and flexibility. A Power Boost function can reduce cooking times even more with an extra boost of heat. Or change from a powerful high heat to a true simmer quickly for intense and even cooking.
Simmer & melt food without burning
The Simmer/Melt function ensures that the cooking temperature stays low. With more precise control it provides the optimum conditions for gently simmering or melting food, like chocolate or butter, without burning.
Safety Lock
The safety lock functions allows for the control panel to be completely locked with just the touch of a button.
Automatically safer to prevent accidents
A Safety Shutoff provides complete peace of mind. It automatically turns off any cooking zones if things have been left cooking on them for a long time or there’s no change in the operation after a certain period.
Safe and efficient residual heat use
A 2 Stage Residual Heat Indicator lets you safely and efficiently use any residual heat for cooking. It clearly shows an 'h' if a cooking zone is hot or an 'H' if it is very hot, but turns off when safe to touch.
