Frequently Asked Questions - TH-962 THOMAS

How do I clean the Thomas TH-962 plancha?

After use, let the plate cool slightly, then scrape off food residue with the included scraper. Wipe with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. For stubborn bits, use a non-abrasive sponge. Never immerse the appliance in water or use abrasive cleaners.

Do I need to preheat the plancha before cooking?

Yes, preheat for about 5–10 minutes with the thermostat set to the desired temperature. The indicator light will turn off when ready. Preheating ensures even cooking and helps prevent sticking.

What type of cookware can I use on the plancha?

The plancha is designed for direct cooking on the stainless steel surface. You can use metal or silicone utensils. Avoid using plastic or wooden utensils that may melt or burn. Do not use cookware as the surface is meant for direct food contact.

Can I use the plancha outdoors?

Yes, the Thomas TH-962 can be used outdoors on a stable, level surface. However, protect it from rain and extreme weather. Never leave it unattended while operating outdoors.

How do I adjust the temperature?

Turn the thermostat knob to the desired setting (usually indicated by low, medium, high). The indicator light will cycle on and off to maintain the set temperature. Adjust as needed during cooking.

What is the maximum weight the plancha can hold?

The cooking surface can support up to 10 kg (22 lbs) of food evenly distributed. Avoid placing excessive weight that could damage the heating element.

Is the plancha suitable for cooking vegetables?

Absolutely! The plancha is excellent for vegetables. Slice them evenly and cook on medium heat. The even heat distribution provides a nice sear without burning. Use a little oil to enhance flavor.

Can I use aluminum foil or parchment paper on the cooking surface?

It is not recommended as it can interfere with heat transfer and damage the non-stick coating. Cook directly on the stainless steel surface for best results.

How often should I replace the drip tray?

The drip tray should be emptied and cleaned after each use. Replace it if it becomes warped or heavily stained. Spare trays are available from the manufacturer or authorized dealers.

What should I do if the plancha stops heating?

Check the power cord and outlet. If the indicator light does not turn on, the thermostat may have tripped due to overheating. Let the unit cool completely, then reset by unplugging for 10 minutes. If the problem persists, contact Thomas customer service for repair.
