ELICA TAPS INTO TREND FOR ANALOGUE CONTROLS WITH LAUNCH OF NEW
NIKOLATESLA UNPLUGGED
Induction hobs are loved for their minimalist lines and ultra-easy to clean surfaces but they can be harder to control with wet or greasy fingers and they lack the intuitive feel of analogue controls .
Elica has resolved this dilemma with the launch of its latest extractor hob NIKOLATESLA UNPLUGGED , which brings together the elegance of the hugely successful NIKOLATESLA SWITCH and the benefits of analogue control .
NIKOLATESLA UNPLUGGED is controlled through beautifully weighted knobs with analogue touch and feel which provide instantaneous and intuitive access to all its features . All elements are incorporated into a bold-lined appearance , developed to intelligently separate the cooking zone from the control area ., An elegant shock-resistant bulkhead protects the control area from every possible contact with cookware and any spillages .
The bold , textured knobs give NIKOLATESLA UNPLUGGED a professional look and provide perfect grip , even when hands are wet or greasy . Extraction of fumes is through the centrally located zone concealed by a circular glass flap . Just touch to open and activate extraction – close to turn off extraction .
NIKOLATESLA UNPLUGGED has 3 automatic cooking features : - Melting , thanks to which it is no longer necessary to stir delicate ingredients so they don ’ t burn onto the bottom of the pot ; Warming , that guarantees proper heat levels for slow cooking , like for sauces and creams , in addition to keeping dishes warm , and Simmering , that prevents pots boiling over .
Thanks to the Autocapture feature , users can focus just on what they are cooking and not on unpleasant odours , as NIKOLATESLA UNPLUGGED automatically sets the most suitable air extraction power , by gradually adjusting and lowering it to remove odours during and after cooking .
Like other products in the NikolaTesla range , NIKOLATESLA UNPLUGGED also offers :
• Comfort Silence technology – at top extraction speed , noise levels are at a minimum .
• Two Bridge Zones that automatically joins two adjacent cooking zones , thus allowing for the use of over-sized cookware , keeping an even and constant temperature on the entire hob .
• Smart algorithms that adjust extraction power automatically by selecting the most suitable for what you are cooking .
• Recirculating models have long life ceramic filters that remove up to 80 % of odours - in comparison to a market average of 60 %. In addition , they are very durable and regeneratable for up to five years .
• Any large spillages are kept away from the working parts and can easily be drained from the collector .
