Hob with integrated ventilation module – The hob and hood in one
The integrated ventilation module combines the best of our induction cooktops and cooker hoods. Because it is built into the cooktop surface, it draws away cooking smells and steam right where they start. This way, you don’t need a separate hood, and you have more overhead space for cabinets – or a clear view across your kitchen.

DirectSelect – Cooktop control made easy
If only there was an eaiser way to select hob settings. Thanks to the intuitive control panel and the supportive lightline, DirectSelect makes it quicker and easier to select cooking zones and set the specific power level.

Combizone – More freedom for your cooking
If you ever need more space for a long piece of cookware, such as a roasting dish, you can combine two individual cooking zones into one large zone with a combined heat level at the touch of a button with CombiZone.

AutoOn function – Smarter ventilation at the source
No need to switch on the extractor. Now your hob does it for you. Thanks to the AutoOn feature, the vents start to operate whenever you switch on the hob. Or you can activate the vents yourself. Keep your kitchen smelling clean and fresh without any added effort.

PerfectFry Plus – Say goodbye to scorchingThe right temperature is crucial for frying. Too high, and even the best steak will cook too quickly and scorch. With PerfectFry Plus, scorching is a thing of the past. The PerfectFry Plus sensor displays and continuously monitors your pans temperature to prevent scorching. Select from 11 predefined temperatures to suit your dish, ranging from 70 to 220°C, for perfect results every time.

Remote Diagnostics – Support served smarter
It can be stressful if your home appliances don’t work the way they’re supposed to. Remote Diagnostics is here to help. Simply call the Home Connect hotline and make an appointment for a remote diagnosis of your connected appliance via the Internet. With your permission, the Bosch customer service team can then remotely screen your appliance, locate the problem area and give you the clear advice you need. In the event that the problem can not be solved this way, a Bosch service technician can be informed and come to your home to resolve all the issues, equipped with all the necessary parts already in hand.

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 – Cookings 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.

Restart – Stores your control settings
Have you ever unintendedly switched off your hob and all settings were gone? With Restart the cooktop saves your previous settings and restores them in case you switch your cooktop on again within four seconds.

Induction Technology – Faster cooking, reduced energy consumption
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.
Multitouch+: directly control the power with the imprinted touch bar.
yes: directly access favourite functions with a configurable button (available with connected Home Connect account).
Variable 17-stage power settings for each zone: precisely adapt the heat with 17 power levels (9 main levels and 8 intermediate levels).
Switch-off timer: switches off the cooking zone at the end of the time set (e.g. for boiled eggs).
Alternative: an alarm sounds at the end of the time set (e.g. for pasta).
Sound volume adaptable to personal preference and needs.
PowerBoost function for all zones: boil water faster thanks to 50% more energy than at the highest standard level.
QuickStart function: when switching on, the hob automatically selects the cooking zone with cookware (when placed on a zone whilst the hob is off).
ReStart function: in case of unintentional switch-off, this feature restores all previous settings by switching on the hob again within 4 seconds.
Home Connect enabled: check if the hob is switched off even when not at home, and find recipes or additional functions in the Home Connect app.

Replenishment cleanAir filter set HEZ9VRCR0.

For ducted extraction configuration: 2 x 2 sets of directly integrated, high-performance low-noise acoustic filters for significantly lower noise and improved psycho-acoustics.
Suitable for ducted or recirculated extraction installations in 4 different options (unducted, partly and fully ducted recirculation or ducted extraction). Installation accessories for unducted recirculation, among these four cleanAir odor filters and a telescopic slider element, are included in the cooktop. The included accessories allow easy and quick installations and can be planned in all worktop depths ≥60cm. For other types of installation, one of the following accessory kits is recommended:
HEZ9VDKR1 for partly-ducted recirculation in worktops of ≥60cm depth with max. worktop height of 960 mm. HEZ9VDKR0 for partly-ducted recirculation in worktops of ≥70cm depth with max. worktop height of 960 mm.
HEZ9VDKE1 as starter kit for ducted extraction in worktops of ≥60cm depth.
To complete the fully ducted extraction or to do any other individual recirculation planning different ducting accessories are available.
Planning suggestions:

Installation is possible in island as well as wall oriented configurations.

The product and its accessories comply with the Needle Flame Test (according to IEC 60695-11-5) and the V2 flammability class (according to UL94).

The max. immersion depth is 223 mm below worktop surface.

The appliance must be freely accessible from below (i.e. for accessing the lower liquid safety collector).

No false floor is necessary below the cooktop with integrated downdraft ventilation system. The drawers and/or shelves in the floor unit must be removable. The backpanel of the floor unit can be kept - only a cut-out for the air outlet is needed (position and size can be taken from the installation instructions).

An installation with unducted recirculation requires a vertical aperture of min. 25mm behind the backpanel of the furniture. Suggested for ideal performance are 50mm.
The minimum worktop thickness is 16 mm for top mounted and flush installed appliances with the standard installation system.

The overall appliance weight is 26kg - the bearing capacity and stability, in the case of very thin worktops in particular, must be supported using suitable substructures. The overall appliance weight and the worktop manufacturer's structural integrity specifications are to be taken into account.

For partly ducted and unducted recirculation extraction installations, a return-flow aperture of ≥400cm² is to be respected in the plinth area. The aperture can be realized via outlet grids, lamella grids or subtly shortened plinths depending on the assortment of the kitchen furniture manufacturer.

The air outlet on the backside of the appliance can directly be accessed with a male flat duct element (DN 150).

The pressuredrop resistant blower allows longer and more complex ductings up to 8m with three 90° bows while keeping sufficient performance.

When installing a ventilation hood with ducted extraction and a chimney-vented fireplace, the power supply line of the appliance needs a suitable safety switch. This is not required for configurations in recirculated extraction.

In ducted extraction configuration a one-way flap (or backflow trap) with a maximum opening pressure of 65Pa should be installed.
