T-fal STAINLESS STEEL COOKWARE
• Low to medium heat offers best cooking performance
• Use high heat only for boiling or reducing liquids
• Medium to medium-high heat for sautéing, stir frying and frying
• Low heat for warming food, simmering and preparing delicate sauces
• Cookware is oven safe to 500°F/260°C, if handles are also stanless stell.
CAUTION: Cooking at ultra high settings can cause emission of fumes from the non-stick interior that could be dangerous for certain
animals with very sensitive respiratory systems, such as birds. Birds should not be kept in the kitchen.
T-fal TRI-PLY COOKWARE
Due to the full aluminum core, there will be full even heat distribution throughout the whole pan, which often means that a lower heat
setting should be used for this cookware, than for others.
• Low to medium heat offers best cooking performance.
• Use high heat only for boiling or reducing liquids.
• Medium to medium-high heat for sautéing, stir frying and frying.
• Use low heat for warming food, simmering and preparing delicate sauces.
• Cookware is oven safe to 500°F/260°C, if handles are also stainless steel.
DISCOLORATION:
Overheating can cause brown or blue stains. This is not a defect in the product; it occurs from using a too high heat setting (typically in
an empty or minimally filled pan). Food films that were not properly or fully removed from past cooking will also cause discoloration to the
pan when reheated. Large amounts of iron in your water can cause discoloration as well and may result in the pot looking slightly rusty.
T-fal CERAMIC COOKWARE
T-fal ceramic cookware is PFOA-free and PTFE-free. The ceramic surface provides easy release while cooking and quick cleanup.
• The T-fal ceramic surface can be heated up to 700°F/371°C on a stovetop.
• The high heat resistance of the ceramic interior surface makes the pan ideal for searing, browning and frying.
• T-fal ceramic cookware promotes healthy cooking by requiring less saturated fats and oils while cooking.
T-fal INDUCTION COMPATIBLE COOKWARE
Some T-fal cookware is induction compatible. If you are unsure about the induction compatibility of your T-fal cookware, please refer to
cookware outer packaging to determine. Some T-fal hard anodized sets with stainless steel bases may include smaller capacity pots and
pans that may not properly heat on all induction cooktops. Please refer to the Use & Care document supplied by the induction cooktop
manufacturer for more information.
