Home Connect

This hob is Wi-Fi-enabled; settings can be sent to the 

hob via a mobile device.

If the hob is not connected to the home network, the 
appliance functions in the same way as a hob with no 
network connection. The hob can always be operated via 
the control knob.

The availability of the Home Connect function depends 
on the availability of Home Connect services in your 
country. Home Connect services are not available in 
every country. You can find more information on this at 
www.home-connect.com.
