The matt surface of the BOSCH PVS81AHC1E Serie 6 hob adds a modern and sophisticated look to your kitchen. Thanks to its innovative design, scratches are up to 5× less visible than on conventional ceramic glass surfaces. The matt design also helps to reduce the visibility of fingerprints and smudges, so the hob looks tidier even with daily use.
The DirectSelect+ control lets you easily select the desired cooking zone and directly set the corresponding power level. The clear control panel with a light strip makes it easy to navigate the settings and speeds up daily operation. You have everything under control without any unnecessarily complicated settings.
The CombiZone function combines two separate induction cooking zones into one larger area. This lets you comfortably use larger pots, pans or roasters that wouldn't fit on a standard cooking zone. The hob easily adapts to cooking with larger cookware.
The right temperature is crucial when frying. The PerfectFry Plus sensor continuously monitors the pan's temperature and helps prevent overheating and burning. You can choose from 11 preset temperatures ranging from 70 to 220°C, so you can easily prepare meat, vegetables, pancakes and other dishes with more precise results.
The Smart Hood Automatic function connects the BOSCH PVS81AHC1E Serie 6 hob to a compatible extractor hood via Home Connect. During cooking, the extractor automatically adapts to the hob's settings and adjusts its power according to the current situation. This allows you to focus more on cooking and less on manually controlling the hood.
The Favourite button lets you save a frequently used combination of settings, such as a specific power level and timer. This makes your daily routines faster and more convenient. When linked to your Home Connect account, the button can also be used for other smart functions, like controlling the lights on a compatible cooker hood.
If you run into any issues, the remote diagnostics function can make communicating with Bosch customer support easier. With your permission, the support service can remotely check your connected appliance, help identify the problem, and suggest the next steps. This makes finding a solution faster and more accurate.
The Frying Sensor Assistant helps you set the ideal temperature for selected recipes. Simply choose a recipe in a supported app or use a voice assistant, and the correct settings for PerfectFry Plus are sent directly to the BOSCH PVS81AHC1E Serie 6 hob. This makes cooking easier, more precise, and reduces the risk of burning your food.
The PowerBoost function increases the power of the selected cooking zone to significantly speed up heating. It's useful for bringing large quantities of water to the boil or for preparing meals quickly when you don't want to waste time waiting. It can speed up heating by up to 35% compared to the highest standard power level.
The QuickStart function detects which cooking zone you have placed a pan on and automatically selects it on the control panel when you switch on the hob. All you have to do is set the desired power level and you can start cooking. This function saves time and makes using the BOSCH PVS81AHC1E Serie 6 hob more pleasant every day.
If the hob is switched off accidentally, for example due to a spillage, the ReStart function saves the last selected setting. After cleaning the control surface, you can simply restore the setting by pressing the button and continue cooking without having to reset all the parameters.
The handy timer lets you set the cooking time for a selected cooking zone. When the set time is up, the corresponding zone switches off automatically, giving you better control over your cooking. The function is useful for cooking pasta, rice, or dishes that require a precise preparation time.
The child lock helps prevent the hob from being accidentally switched on or the settings from being changed. It is activated by a long press of the button and increases safety in the home, especially where children are present. This gives you peace of mind that the BOSCH PVS81AHC1E Serie 6 hob will not be started by mistake.
Induction technology generates heat directly in the base of the cookware, making heating fast, precise and energy-efficient. The surface around the pan remains cooler than on standard electric hobs, which increases both safety and comfort while cooking. Thanks to the rapid power delivery, you can easily prepare everyday meals with less energy consumption.

What is the difference between flexi, combi zone, and round inductors?
Round zones have a fixed size. A combi zone bridges two separate zones into one larger area. A flexi zone, on the other hand, adapts to the shape and size of the cookware anywhere on the surface.
Can I connect the hob to 400V?
Yes, most induction hobs can be connected to 400V (two phases), which is actually recommended for reaching full power.
Why can't I connect a hob with a power input of 4.6 kW to two phases?
A 4.6 kW power input is designed to run on a single, stronger phase. Splitting the load across two phases usually requires a higher total power rating, around 7 kW.
On your website, you state Voltage 220-240 V, can the hob be connected to a multi-phase connection?
Yes, the 220-240V figure refers to the voltage per phase. The hob can typically be connected to two phases (400V) as well.
Which hobs are designed for flush installation?
These are frameless models with polished edges, listed in the range as suitable for flush-mount installation.
The hob is noisy, it clicks loudly.
The clicking comes from switching relays or the power management function. It's a normal operating characteristic of induction technology, not a fault.
Is it possible to turn off the sound signals on the hob?
Yes, on Bosch and Siemens models this can be done in the "Basic Settings" menu (C2). Confirmation tones can be muted, but warning signals stay active regardless.
What is the smallest diameter of cookware that will work on an induction hob?
The minimum diameter depends on the size of the zone, and typically falls somewhere between 9 and 12 cm.
