Slight surface marks or abrasions are normal and will not affect the performance of the non-stick surface. Those marks will not be covered by the guarantee.

Non-stick cooking sprays are not necessary with non-stick cookware. The use of such sprays may create an invisible build-up on the surface of the pan that will affect the pan’s non stick properties.

Repeat conditioning of the non-stick regularly to maintain performance, particularly after dishwashing (see “Before First Use”).

If you accidentally burn food in your pans fill them with warm water and washing up liquid and leave to soak for about an hour. Afterwards wash them as normal and use a non- abrasive sponge (a non-stick scouring sponge) if necessary. The non-stick coating should then be reconditioned with a little cooking oil wiped over the surface with a paper kitchen towel to restore its non-stick properties (see “Before First Use).

If food begins to "stick" to the pan this is usually a sign that the non-stick properties have been weakened due to the pan having been overheated; not conditioned regularly enough (see "Before First Use"); food has been burnt in the pan or there is a build up of food residues in the pan. This is not covered by the manufacturer's guarantee (see section "Guarantee")

A build up of residue or scale may form on the coating inside the pan. This is often seen when a pan is continually used for boiling vegetables and hard water is used. To remove these deposits use diluted white vinegar or lemon juice. To resolve the problem we also suggest that a little cooking oil is spread over the nonstick coating after washing and drying to re-condition the non-stick surface.

The non-stick coating is formulated not to chip or peel under normal household use. If particles from the coating are accidentally ingested, there is no danger. These particles are non toxic and totally inert, if ingested it is totally innocuous in the body. If you have any concerns please contact the Consumer Helpline

Non-stick coating with Thermospot Technology

Tefal cookware comes both with and without Thermo-Spot™ technology. Should your pan have a heat indicator like the ones shown, this will tell you when the pan has reached the optimum cooking temperature (approx 190ºC).

When cold: - The Thermo-Spot™ pattern is visible. Add a drop of cooking oil to your pan. Wait and the spot will turn a solid colour when the pan is perfectly preheated and ready to cook. When the pattern is no longer visible reduce the heat to maintain the temperature. This Thermospot technology should therefore help to prevent you overheating the pan.

Ceramic coated cookware

The ceramic surface can be heated up to 570°F/300°C on a stovetop.

The high heat resistance of the ceramic interior surface makes the pan ideal for searing, browning and frying.

The ceramic cookware promotes healthy cooking by requiring less saturated fats and oils while cooking

Utensils

We recommend to use plastic, silicone or wooden utensils for best long term results.

If your product has a non-stick coating – see section “Cookware with non-stick coating”

Slight surface markings are normal and will not diminish the performance of your cookware

Oven and grill use

Cookware is oven safe up to 500°F/260°C/Gas Mark 9 if the handles are made of stainless steel without any bakelite or silicone insert or wrap. Refer to the handle and knob section to check the safe temperature for your cookware.
