## Long description

The Elica NikolaTesla Alpha B BL/A/78 is a built-in induction hob with an integrated extractor hood designed to fit seamlessly into modern kitchens. With a 78 cm width, four induction cooking zones and a glass-ceramic surface, it combines cooking performance with easy maintenance. The front-positioned touch controls, pan detection and timer simplify daily use while the hood operates in ducted or recirculating mode with up to 570 m³/h extraction and a noise level of 61 dB(A).
Advantages
The extractor hob uses about 25% less energy than comparable induction hobs with integrated extraction systems and automatically adjusts extraction power according to the active cooking zones. Boiling times are reduced thanks to efficient induction heating, and the unit includes functions such as Stop&Go, Warming Mode and a keep-warm feature. The low noise level keeps kitchen and living areas comfortable, and the black glass surface is simple to clean. Designed for installation in 80 cm and 90 cm base units, it delivers a fully integrated aesthetic.
Suitable for
 Open-plan kitchens where quiet extraction is required
 Households seeking energy-efficient induction cooking with integrated extraction
 Users who need easy-to-clean, built-in hobs with touch controls

How to use

Set the timer as needed and rely on pan detection to ensure the hob heats only when cookware is present.
Usage recommendations
Install the unit in an 80 cm or 90 cm base unit following the manufacturer's cut-out and ventilation requirements. For best extraction performance, choose ducted installation where possible; use recirculating mode with recommended filters when ducting is not available. Clean the glass-ceramic surface with non-abrasive cleaners after the hob has cooled and avoid dragging heavy or sharp objects across the surface.
