Frequently Asked Questions - TC04 ROSIERES

How to connect the hob in three-phase 380-415 V?

For a three-phase 380-415 V3N~ connection, use a H05RR-F or H05VV-F cable with a section of 5G1.5 mm². The conductors connect to terminals 1, 2, 3 (phases), 4-5 shunted (neutral) and 6 (earth). A 16 A fuse is required. Refer to the diagram on page 6 of the manual.

What to do if an electric plate does not heat up?

First check that the switch is in a position other than 0. If the indicator does not light, check the power supply and fuse. If a fuse has blown, replace it with a model of the same rating. If the problem persists, contact the after-sales service.

How to clean the electric plates?

After cooling, heat the plate slightly to carbonize residues, then turn off the power. Once cooled, wipe with absorbent paper. Never use abrasive products or metal sponges. After each use, wipe with a slightly oiled cloth to protect the plate.

What cooking utensils are recommended?

Use pots with a flat and thick bottom, with a diameter at least equal to that of the plate to avoid energy loss and overheating. Make sure the bottom is dry before placing on the plate.

How to use the self-protected quick plate?

It works like a standard plate with a 7-position switch (0-6), but incorporates a thermostat that reduces power in case of abnormal heating (e.g., empty operation). For first use, heat it empty at maximum power for a few minutes.

What to do in case of overheating or start of fire?

Never pour water on the plates. Immediately turn off the power supply. Use a lid or fire blanket to smother the flames if necessary. Always supervise cooking with fats.

Can I install the hob myself?

The electrical installation must be carried out by a qualified professional in accordance with current standards (NFC 15100 in France). Incorrect installation can lead to serious risks. ROSIERES declines all responsibility in case of non-compliance.

Which fuses to use for each type of connection?

For a single-phase or two-phase 220-240 V~ connection, use a 20 A fuse. For a three-phase 380-415 V3N~ connection, use a 16 A fuse. Always check the appropriate cable section.

How to prevent rust on the electric plates?

After each use, wipe the plate with a slightly greasy cloth to create anti-moisture protection. If rust appears, use fine emery cloth to remove it, then apply a specific renovator for electric plates.

What to do before first use of the hob?

Heat each plate empty for a few minutes at the maximum position (6) to cure the protective coating. Then let cool and clean the hob with a damp cloth. Refer to the manual for details.

THE HOT PLATE

THE STANDARD ELECTRICAL HOT PLATE

This is a cast-iron hot plate, controlled by a 7 position switch.

Each position corresponds to a permanent and progressive temperature according to the marks 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.

RAPID SELF-PROTECTING ELECTRIC HOT PLATE (with a red dot in the centre)

This is a cast-iron hot plate, controlled by a 7 position switch.

As with the previous hot plate, each position corresponds to a

permanent and progressive temperature according to the marks 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. An internal thermostat cuts off of the power supply if there is any overheating. (If, for example, a hot plate is working without a pan on it).

BEFORE USING THE ELECTRIC HOT PLATE :

• Before using the electric hot plate for the first time, let it heat up for a few minutes, without a pan, at maximum temperature to let the protective coating harden.

HOW TO USE :

• For best results, it is advisable to start on the maximum heat and then turn back to an intermediate temperature taking into account the type and volume of the food.
• The power-on indicator light comes on to show that the hot plate is working.
• To stop it, turn back the knob until position "●".

THE DIFFERENT TEMPERATURE SETTINGS : below are a few examples which are given as guidelines. When you become more familiar with the appliance, you will be able to choose settings to suit your own personal tastes and requirements.

Positions		Some tips ......
1	Very low	To keep a dish hot, melt butter and chocolate ....
2	Low	Slow cooking, sauces, stews, rice pudding, poached eggs ...
3	Moderately	Beans, frozen foods, fruit, boiling water ....
4	Medium	Steamed apples, fresh vegetables, pasta, crepes, fish ....
5	High	More intense cooking, omelettes, steaks ....
6	Very high	Steaks, chops, frying...

For information, we note below the different powers reached according to the type of the plate and the control knob setting.

Cooking with the electric hot plate

To gest the best results from your appliance it is important to observe the following :

• Use thick, flat-bottomed cooking vessels, a completely flat bottom prevents the overheating of some points which cause food to stick. Thick metal allows for good heat distribution.
• Make sure that the bottoms of pans are dry : this will prevent things from sticking to the hot plate because of moisture.
• Use pans with a diameter large enough to completely cover the hot plate, otherwise some of the energy will be wasted and if there are any spillages the hot plate will quickly become stained and difficult to maintain (rust, etc).
• Never leave a hot plate switched on without a pan on it: it could become deformed, which would reduce its efficiency.
• When cooking with fat or oil, do not remove the pan from the hob. Very hot fats and oils can quickly catch fire.
• When the hot plate is hot, avoid any contact with materials made of plastic or aluminium foil.

Warning : during the hot plate is operating, it becomes hot, keep children away from it.

MAINTENANCE

Before all cleaning or dismantling operation, it is imperative to :

. disconnect the hob to the mains supply.
. let all parts of the hob cool down.

Never use :

. harsh abrasives, scouring pads or sharp object to clean the hob.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

THE ENAMELLED HOB

. Enamelled steel hob : simply clean the enamelled hob with soapy water when the hob is cold, rinse and wipe with a clean dry cloth. If you clean the enamelled hob when it is hot, you may tarnish it.
. Stainless steel : clean with soapy water, rinse and dry. You can use a special product to clean stainless steel which is available in stores.

THE KNOBS

For thorough cleaning, the control knobs can be removed by pulling them upwards. Clean exclusively with soapy water and dry well before replacing them.

THE HOT PLATE

Heat it for a while if necessary, to burn the deposits. After switching off and cooling down of the plate, wipe it with an absorbing paper. In any cases, it is important to protect the hot plate from humidity.

Do not use abrasive products.

To maintain and preserve the appearance, rub a drop of neutral oil, such as sewing machine oil into the surface of the hot plate.

The hot plate should always be dry, or slightly greasy, if it is not to be used for some time.

Remove any rust using emery paper followed by a suitable commercially available product.
