Do you have a question about the Bosch NITP669SUC and is the answer not in the manual?
This document is a user and care manual for Bosch cooktops, specifically models NITP669SUC and NITP669UC.
The Bosch cooktop is an induction cooking appliance designed for domestic use, offering various cooking zones and features to enhance the cooking experience. It utilizes induction technology, where heat is generated directly in the cookware, leading to faster cooking times, energy efficiency, and easier cleaning. The cooktop can be operated via a control panel with touch keys and displays. It also features Home Connect functionality, allowing for remote control and monitoring via a mobile device, and Cooktop-Hood Sync, enabling the cooktop to control a compatible range hood.
The cooktop models NITP669SUC and NITP669UC feature multiple cooking zones. Both models include a large central cooking zone with a diameter of 12"/10"/8" (30.5/26/19 cm), indicating a triple cooking zone. Additionally, they have two flexible cooking zones, each measuring 15"x9" (38x21.5 cm). These flexible zones can be used as single large zones or as two independent zones. The cooktop operates with various power levels from 1 (lowest) to 9 (highest), with intermediate settings available. It is designed for use up to a maximum altitude of 13,100 feet (4,000 m). The Wi-Fi module, identified as Model COM2 with FCC ID: 2AHES-COM2 and IC ID: 21152-COM2, ensures communication between the appliance and smart devices. In networked standby mode, the appliance consumes a maximum of 2 W.
Control Panel and Operation: The cooktop is turned on and off using a main power switch. Cooking zones are selected by touching the +/- symbols, and power levels are set using number keys (1-9). The control panel includes various touch keys for functions like panel lock, keep warm, power move, flex join/split, hood control, hood light, auto chef, speed boost, kitchen timer, cook timer, and count up timer. Display icons indicate cooktop readiness, power level, residual heat, and active functions.
Cooking Zones: The cooktop offers single, triple, and flexible cooking zones. The flexible zones can be combined into a single large zone or used as two independent zones. The appliance automatically detects cookware size and material, activating the appropriate cooking zone(s) for optimal results.
PowerMove Function: This function divides the flexible cooking zone into three preset cooking areas with different power levels: front (level 9), middle (level 5), and rear (level 1.5). Cookware can be moved between these areas to change the power level during cooking.
SpeedBoost® and ShortBoost Functions: SpeedBoost® rapidly heats large quantities of water, while ShortBoost quickly heats cookware. Both functions can be activated for a cooking zone, provided other zones in the same group are not in use.
Keep Warm Function: Ideal for melting chocolate or butter and keeping food warm, this function maintains a low temperature.
AutoChef® Frying Function: This feature maintains a suitable frying pan temperature for frying food. It indicates when the pan has reached the optimum temperature for adding oil and food, preventing overheating and saving energy. Specific AutoChef® frying pans are recommended for best results.

Specific Cleaning Guidelines:
Avoid these cleaners: Glass cleaners with ammonia or chlorine bleach, caustic cleaners (e.g., Easy Off®), abrasive cleaners, metal scouring pads (e.g., Scotch Brite®), soap-filled scouring pads (e.g., SOS®), powdery cleaners with chlorine bleach, and flammable cleaners (e.g., lighter fluid or WD-40) should be avoided as they can damage or permanently stain the cooktop surface.
