Combine cooking zones, for every pan The Series 40 JoinZone hob lets you combine two separate cooking zones, to create one big heat source. The temperature and time settings will automatically line up, so you don`t have to worry about controlling both separately making it perfect for big dishes or skillets. JoinZone, designed for larger pans The JoinZone feature lets you combine the size and power of two separate zones, so you can cook across both at once. Temperature and time settings also unite, which makes cooking with larger pans, over a consistent heat, easy.
