Fast, precise induction cooking
Induction technology delivers powerful heat directly to your cookware for fast cooking and accurate temperature control. It provides an efficient way to prepare everyday meals while giving you the responsiveness needed for more precise cooking.
Auto-Vent 2.0 for automatic hood control
Auto-Vent 2.0 connects the hob and compatible hood via Bluetooth, allowing them to work in sync as you cook. The hood adjusts automatically to help manage steam and cooking odours without requiring manual changes.
Discreet Evo Slider controls
The elegant Evo Slider controls are visible only when in use, then disappear after cooking for a smooth, uncluttered finish. This creates a clean aesthetic that complements the matte black design.
Automatic pot detection
Permanent Automatic Pot Detection recognises where your pan is placed and activates the appropriate cooking zone instantly. This supports effortless, precise cooking with less adjustment required.
MultiZone flexibility for larger cookware
The MultiZone function joins two adjoining zones to create a larger cooking surface, making it ideal for larger dishes and cookware.

Frequently Asked Questions About the SIM3644N
What type of hob is the Smeg SIM3644N?
The Smeg SIM3644N is a 60cm four-zone induction hob with a matte black ceramic glass surface. Induction technology heats the base of compatible cookware directly, offering fast response and precise control for everyday cooking, simmering and more intensive heat settings.
Does the Smeg SIM3644N have flexible cooking zones?
Yes. This model includes two MultiZone areas, allowing adjoining zones to be used independently or joined together into a larger cooking surface. This makes the Smeg SIM3644N a good choice for larger pans, griddles, roasting dishes and cookware that would not fit comfortably on one zone.
Can the Smeg SIM3644N connect to a cooker hood automatically?
Yes. The Smeg SIM3644N features Auto-Vent 2.0, which uses Bluetooth to communicate with a compatible Smeg Auto-Vent 2.0 cooker hood. When connected, the hood can adjust its extraction speed automatically in response to hob settings and pan temperature.
Does the Smeg SIM3644N include a built-in extractor?
No. The Smeg SIM3644N is an induction hob with Auto-Vent 2.0 connectivity rather than an integrated extractor. To use automatic hood control, it must be paired with a compatible Smeg Auto-Vent 2.0 cooker hood.
How are the controls operated on the Smeg SIM3644N?
The hob uses front-mounted EVO Slider touch controls. The controls are backlit while the hob is in use and disappear afterwards for a cleaner, more understated finish. There are nine power levels and a booster setting on each of the four cooking zones.
Does the Smeg SIM3644N detect pans automatically?
Yes. Permanent automatic pot detection recognises the position of compatible cookware and activates the relevant cooking area. This helps ensure that heat is directed where the pan is placed and supports more straightforward operation.
What cookware can I use with the Smeg SIM3644N induction hob?
You will need induction-compatible cookware with a magnetic base. Suitable options commonly include cast iron and many stainless-steel pans. A simple check is to see whether a magnet sticks securely to the base of the pan.
Is the Smeg SIM3644N suitable for replacing a gas hob?
The Smeg SIM3644N is designed to be compatible with gas cooktop cut-outs, helping to make replacement more straightforward where the existing aperture is suitable. We recommend checking the installation requirements and electrical supply with a qualified installer before ordering.
What are the dimensions of the Smeg SIM3644N?
The Smeg SIM3644N measures 600mm wide, 510mm deep and 53mm high. It is a built-in electric hob and can be installed with an ultra-low profile or fully flush finish, subject to the worktop and installation requirements.
Is the matte black surface easy to maintain?
Yes. The Smeg SIM3644N has a matte ceramic glass finish designed to offer improved scratch resistance and reduced fingerprint visibility compared with conventional glossy ceramic glass. As with any ceramic hob, it should be cleaned once cool using suitable non-abrasive products.
Does the Smeg SIM3644N have safety features?
Yes. The hob includes residual-heat indicators to show when a zone remains hot after use, along with safety systems for overheating and liquid overflow. Because induction heat is generated through contact with suitable cookware, the surrounding hob surface does not heat in the same way as a conventional electric cooking zone.
Are there any suitable alternatives to the Smeg SIM3644N 60cm Induction Auto-Vent Hob Matte Black I could consider?
Yes, you could consider the Smeg SI364BM 4 Zone 60cm Induction Hob as a simpler same-brand 60cm alternative. It keeps the black-glass four-zone induction layout but uses rotary controls and surface mounting rather than the SIM3644N’s Auto-Vent and flush-mount flexibility.
Alternatively, the Smeg SI2M5643D1 60cm Induction Hob is a more feature-led 60cm same-brand option, with four zones, flush or surface mounting, MultiZone, Power Booster, 17 power levels and a keep-warm function. Please confirm cut-out and ventilation requirements before ordering.
