Bosch PVQ731H26E Series 6 70cm Venting Combi Induction Hob

The Bosch PVQ731H26E Series 6 induction hob with integrated ventilation combines powerful and flexible induction cooking with convenient ventilation technology for perfect results. The clever AutoOn function automatically draws steam away when your hob heats up, and the CombiZone hob allows you to combine two induction cooking zones to heat large cookware. 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.

The integrated extractor combines the best of induction hobs with cooker hoods. Because it is built into the surface of the hob, 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. And 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.

Want to cook with an oversized pot, or use a roasting tray on your induction hob? Use CombiZone to combine two of your circular cooking zones. That gives you more space and flexibility to heat your large cookware.

The 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.

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.

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. With Restart the cooktop saves your previous settings and restores them in case you switch your cooktop on again within four seconds.

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.

The PVQ731H26E is 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 from Bosch.
