Features
Heritage Series Italian Design — Stainless Steel with Polished Chrome
- The stainless steel body with polished chrome-plated handles and accent details is the Heritage Series' most versatile finish — adapting to traditional, transitional, and contemporary kitchens with equal confidence
- Polished chrome handles are a signature Heritage Series design element — immediately distinguishing it from the Professional and Master Series, and giving the HER96L1EXT a refined, considered character even in stainless
- The stainless steel squared worktop surface extends across the full 90cm hob width for a continuous cooking surface that wipes clean and coordinates with the body finish
- Matching Heritage Series stainless steel range hood and backsplash (rear upstand included with the cooker) available for a complete coordinated kitchen suite
- Made in Guastalla, Emilia-Romagna, Italy — in the heart of Italy's most celebrated culinary region
Six All-Brass Gas Burners — Central 18 MJ/h High-Output Dual-Ring Burner
- Six burners across the 90cm stainless steel squared hob, all with solid brass burner caps for superior heat distribution, durability, and long-term resistance to corrosion
- Central High-Output Dual-Ring Burner (18 MJ/h / 5kW): positioned centrally on the hob for balanced access from any direction — the dual-ring design delivers from 0.48kW whisper-quiet inner-ring simmer to 5kW combined-ring full power on the same element
- The central position of the power burner is a Bertazzoni design choice that balances the cooktop visually and practically — equal reach from left or right when working with a wok or large pan
- Additional burners across the remaining five positions cover rapid, semi-rapid, and auxiliary output levels for simultaneous multi-dish cooking at appropriate intensities
Automatic Ignition and Thermocouple Safety — All 6 Burners
- Automatic ignition activates every burner with a single turn of the knob — no separate ignition button, no matches, no lighters
- Thermocouple safety device on every burner automatically cuts the gas supply if the flame is extinguished, across all six positions simultaneously
- Gas cannot flow from any burner when no flame is present
Wok Adapter, Simmer Ring, and Rear Upstand — Included as Standard
- Wok adapter correctly positions a round-bottomed wok over the dual-ring central burner for encircling, even heat distribution
- Simmer ring further reduces the effective output of any burner to the most delicate sustained temperature — essential for tempering, slow sauces, and low-heat custard work
- Rear upstand (backsplash panel) protects the kitchen wall behind the cooker from cooking splashes and steam — fitted at the back of the cooktop
Cast Iron Pan Supports
- Traditional cast iron trivets across the full hob for stable, heavy-duty support for all cookware weights and sizes
103L Electric Oven — 11 Functions, A Energy Rated
- 103L gross oven cavity in a single generous volume for large roasts, full baking sheets, entertaining loads, and multi-dish cooking
- 11 cooking functions: Bake, Bottom Bake, Convection, Convection Bake, Convection Grill, Defrosting, Dehydrate, Fast Preheat, Grill, Pizza, Upper Bake
- Fast Preheat activates multiple elements simultaneously to bring 103L to cooking temperature more quickly than standard preheating
- A energy rated for efficiency at full specification
Analogue Thermometer Dial — Heritage Signature Feature
- Mechanical analogue thermometer on the oven door face displays the actual cavity temperature on a traditional dial in real time
- Shows where the oven is, not just where it has been set — a level of live temperature transparency that digital set-point displays do not provide
- The most immediately recognisable and distinctively Heritage detail on the entire appliance
Triple Glazed Door — Soft Motion Hinges and Anti-Slam Closing
- Three glass panes retain heat within the 103L cavity throughout every cooking cycle
- Soft motion hinges and anti-slam closing system ensure the door closes gently and quietly regardless of how firmly it is pushed
- The door's cool exterior surface and anti-slam mechanism are protective features appropriate to an appliance at this price point and specification
Catalytic Liners — Self-Cleaning Oven Walls
- Catalytic liners on the oven side and back walls absorb and break down grease and fat splatter during high-temperature cooking
- Oven walls self-clean during normal use — reducing cleaning frequency and effort for the 103L cavity across regular, intensive use
Telescopic Rails
- Telescopic rails allow oven shelves to slide completely out of the full 103L depth for safe, stable access to hot dishes
Soft-Close Storage Drawer
- Generous soft-close storage drawer below the oven for roasting pans, baking sheets, and cookware accessories
