Elica NikolaTesla Alpha 78cm Venting Induction Hob

NikolaTesla Alpha is a powerful and stylish extractor hob suitable for either extracted or recirculated installation, so this hob can be installed in any kitchen. It has a high extraction power of up to 455 cubic meters of fumes and odors per hour. It is also whisper-quiet thanks to the comfort-silence motor, so you won’t be disturbed while you’re cooking. The induction hob has nine power settings, plus a booster function for when you need to get dinner on the table fast. The intuitive slider touch controls make it easy to adjust the settings, and the four cooking zones provide plenty of space for all your culinary creations. Auto capture With Autocapture you never have to worry about adjusting extraction based on the food you are cooking, as the hood identifies active cooking zones and sets the proper power level, ensuring the best balance between silence, power, and energy savings. Once cooking has ended, the system gradually lowers speed to remove vapors, odors, and residual humidity. The extractor hob becomes even more functional and practical, for perfect cooking and top-level extraction. Warming Mode This feature was designed for low-temperature cooking, ideal for heating liquids such as milk and broth, as well as creams and sauces, without worrying about them overheating. Furthermore, Warming Mode keeps prepared food warm, while other foods are still cooking. Comfort Silence With the widespread tendency to design open-plan kitchens joined to the living room, it has become important to be able to rely on hoods with a greater extraction capability, which are quieter, so they do not intrude on the surroundings. Thanks to Comfort Silence, the sound level of Elica extraction hoods at maximum extraction speed does not disturb or interfere with the conversation of those present. Timer Forget about cooking times by turning on the timer. Just set the minutes and start the countdown. At the end, the cooking area will be automatically switched off, and a beeper will sound. You can set independent timers on more than one area at the same time with the touch control. A smart timer feature also allows you to set the automatic switch-off after a predetermined time for delayed shutdown, ideal to leave the hood on even after cooking, to fully remove stubborn odors and residual humidity. Stop&Go At times, we must suddenly leave the kitchen in the middle of our recipe and stop cooking. The Stop&Go feature lets us pause all of the features in use on the hob, to later restore them to what was previously set, by just pressing a button. Maintenance Alarm Products equipped with this feature have an indicator light that alerts the user when grease and odor filters are about to reach maximum saturation. Therefore, it’s easy to always know when it’s time to wash or replace them, to keep the appliance clean and operating properly over time. Super Easy Installation With the exclusive Elica system, installation can be done in total safety in just a few steps, safeguarding the look of the product and the space in which it is positioned. After the hood is automatically locked in position, the fastening points can be finely adjusted to preserve the linear design of the kitchen and ensure perfect integration of the hood in the room. A simple, hard-wearing, and safe solution. Long Life Filter Long-Life Filters have been developed by Elica to reach maximum performance levels and guarantee odor filtering efficiency, which is much higher than average. To simplify maintenance operations and reduce environmental impact, these anti-odor filters can be regenerated, lasting up to 3 to 5 years, thus avoiding frequent replacements and waste. Child Lock If you have children in your home, the Child Lock function is invaluable for ensuring the cooking or extraction areas are not accidentally switched on. The function can be enabled when the product is switched on, but the cooking areas and extraction are switched off.
