As a global pioneer in the digital appliance technology, Samsung Electronics has exceeded what is expected of the capabilities, performance and safety of the modern home and kitchen. Small changes can have a big impact and earlier this year, Samsung introduced its latest innovation, the first ever built-in Precision Knobs for ranges.<\/p>\n

Samsung introduced its Precision Knobs to its entire line of Bespoke Slide-In electric and gas ranges, which were launched in the United States and Canada in earlier this year. And on its most premium Bespoke Slide-In electric and gas ranges, Samsung introduced Illuminated Precision Knobs1<\/sup><\/a> to give consumers a beautiful visual cue when the knobs are activated. These industry\u2019s first built-in three step knobs are designed to reinforce safety measures to prevent unintentional activations providing peace of mind to consumers.<\/p>\n

The Precision Knob operates with three simple steps: pinch, push, and turn. This three-step mechanism includes an extra pin that retracts only when the knob is pinched from both sides, where fingers normally touch. Without pinching, the pin stays in place, locking the knob from turning. After pinching, users can push and turn just as before. It\u2019s a simple change that makes a big difference. This extra step prevents the risk of accidental activation of the cooktop, especially by children or pets, while still keeping it easy to use, without the need for extra thinking or large movements.<\/p>\n

In addition, as the name suggests, the Illuminated Precision Knobs light up when activated, which is another meaningful safety feature. With intuitive visual feedback about which burner is activated, users can know if a range is on. This design element enables users to effortlessly check if the cooktops are activated at a glance even from a distance.<\/p>\n

Wi-fi connected ranges also have SmartThings<\/a>, which adds an extra layer of safety by alerting consumers when the cooktop is on, even when they are away from home. Once the \u201cCooktop on alert\u201d is enabled on the SmartThings app<\/a>, it will notify the user when the first cooktop is turned on while all the cooktops of the range are turned off. Moreover consumers can monitor the operating status and power level settings of the cooktop right from their phone, enabling them to double check whether the cooktop is left on.<\/p>\n
