The SIEMENS ED851HSB1E induction hob from the iQ500 range offers an 80 cm cooking surface with 4 induction zones and a flush-fit installation without frame. This model combines induction technology with Home Connect connectivity for remote control via smartphone or tablet.
The connected load of 7400 W is shared across 4 zones: two capable of delivering 2500 W each (3700 W with powerBoost), one 3000 W zone (3700 W with powerBoost) and one 1600 W zone (2200 W with powerBoost). The combiZone function lets you combine two cooking zones into one large area to accommodate large cookware. The 17 cooking levels and 4 boosters offer precise adjustment suited to all cooking methods.
Connectivity is a key feature, with Home Connect for remote control, cookConnect to automatically activate compatible hoods via Wi-Fi, and Intelligent Hood Automatic, which adjusts hood speed based on cooking data. The touchSlider allows direct power control, while the Pan Boost function (available via software update Q4/2024) heats pans faster than maximum power. QuickStart, ReStart and Pause functions complete the ease of use, along with a timer with automatic shut-off and a configurable favourites button.
Safety features include 2-level independent residual heat indicators, child safety lock, overheating protection and pan detection. The black glass-ceramic surface with 3-bevel design requires a cutout of 51 x 750 x 490-500 mm and a minimum worktop thickness of 16 mm; weight is 13 kg. The 100 cm power cable allows installation at 220-240 V.
