USER MANUAL Ingenio L3209502 TEFAL

All the advantages of a removable handle

More elegant and practical, the new Ingenio handle can be removed making Ingenio saucepans, frying pans, sautepans and stirfry pans easy to stack and store in a minimum space. In addition you can switch from one pan to another and move it from the hob, into the oven (max 250^ , do not leave the handle on the pan in the oven), or onto the table for serving, to the fridge, into the dishwasher in a click.

CAUTION

Ingenio cookware cannot be used in the microwave oven.

Remove the handle and the lid after you have placed the pan in the oven.

For a long-lasting Ingenio handle:

• it is recommended to remove the handle during cooking when it is not required to prevent it from overheating and ensure its durability.
• to do not wash the handle in the dishwasher.

Overheating the handle can damage or break it. The handle may therefore no longer function correctly and there is the risk that the pan could fall and you could burn yourself. If you notice any heat damage to the handle it is advised that you do not use it and you should replace it with a new one.

If your pan becomes misshapen after a knock or a fall, it should no longer be used and we recommend that you replace it with a new one. If you continue to use the pan ensure that you can still fit the handle securely on the pan and be aware that you will be using the pan at your own risk.

There are five types of lids in the Ingenio range:

stackable see-through lids with silicone and foldable knobs for all Ingenio saucepans, (Fig.5)
- plastic lids and silicone lids for food conservation,* (Fig.9)
- a stainless steel multi diameter and draining lid (14/16/18/20) for Ingenio saucepans up to 20cm, (Fig.6)
- a stainless steel multi diameter and anti-spattering lid (24/26/28cm) for Ingenio frying pans and saute pans up to 28cm, (Fig.7)

• cast Aluminium lids (18/20/22/24cm) to cook on hobs or into the oven (up to 260^ ). (Fig.8) The lid and its knob can be hot after a prolonged use. For more safety, we encourage to use an oven glove.

Extepted cast Aluminium lids, Ingenio lids are not oven safe.

• Caution: do not store your pans for more than 1 day in the refrigerator. The silicone lid allows the preservation of food preparations. It is not appropriate to preserve fatty or oily food.

Handle instructions

Before attaching the handle

1. Opening the handle. Using your thumb and index finger press simultaneously on the two side opening unlocking buttons. Let free the lower lever. (Fig. 1)
2. Fixing the handle. Place the open handle on the rim of the Ingenio pan. Squeeze on the underside lever to lock the handle in position (to fit it inside) so that the handle grips the edge of the pan. The handle is now locked in position and you can use your Ingenio pan. (Fig.2)

Caution: Never press on the opening unlocking buttons while handling the pan.

Removing the handle

1. To remove the handle, place the Ingenio pan on a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface. Press the lateral unlocking buttons using your the index finger and thumb, by positioning your hand to free the lower lever. (Fig.3)

2. When the lever moves down automatically, the handle is open. It can now be removed from the pan. (Fig.4)

Caution:

never use the handle on makes or types of cookware other than Tefal Ingenio cookware. The Ingenio handle has been designed exclusively for the Tefal Ingenio range.

Warning: To avoid small diameter saucepans (14 to 16 cm) overturning, use the handle for carrying only.

Care instructions

Before using your pan remove all packaging and stickers and wash in warm, soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly. Before using non-stick interiors for the first time, condition the pan by spreading one teaspoon of cooking oil over the interior with a clean cloth. Wipe off any excess. You should then condition the pan regularly to maintain the performance of the non-stick coating. To preserve the non-stick coating:

• In order to avoid overheating your empty pan, follow the Temo-Sro® heat indicator instructions. The spot turns solid red when the pan is perfectly preheated (approximately 190^ ) and ready to cook. When the spot turns solid red, reduce the heat to maintain the temperature.
• never heat fat or oil to the extent that it burns and turns black.
• do not use knives and whisks. Slight surface marks or abrasions are normal and will not affect the performance of the non-stick coating.
• never put cold water directly into a hot pan. Sudden changes of temperature may cause metal to warp, resulting in an uneven base,
• for stainless steel pans, acid salt to water only after it has come to the boil (to avoid salt grains damaging the stainless steel).

CAUTION

To prolong the life of your pan, we recommend hand washing.

We recommend not to put your pots and pans in the dishwasher since washing detergents (especially tablets) contain very aggressive and corrosive ingredients for aluminum parts.

a) For Interior and exterior coated pans:
clean the inner and outer coatings of your pan with hot water, washing up liquid and a sponge, (scouring powder and scouring pads are not suitable for use for cleaning pans).
b) For enamel pans:
clean the enamelled outside of the pans regularly; abrasive pads can be used,
- In the dishwasher, the outer coating may become dulled and discoloured due to the action of certain detergents. Our guarantee does not cover this type of wear.

c) For stainless steel pans:

clean pans thoroughly with a special cleaning agent for stainless steel equipment,

• a blue or yellow discoloration may appear on your products. This is a natural occurrence with stainless steel, due to overheating and is in no way harmful.

• if you burn food in pans, which have a stainless steel interior, fill them with warm water and leave to soak for about an hour. Afterwards, wash them with washing up liquid and a sponge.

Induction hobs:

Never heat your pan when it is empty because this could damage the non-stick coating and warp the base. For the base of your induction pan: dry it after each cleaning. A light blue or yellow colour can appear. It is natural, not dangerous and can be eliminated with a commercial cleaning product for stainless steel utensils, or with lemon juice or white vinegar. We recommend that you use an abrasive sponge only for the base.

For safety purposes:

Never leave the handle of your pan sticking out over the edge of the cooker. Never put a hot pan on the floor or near the edge of a kitchen surface. Let it cool down and keep out of reach of children, and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities. Use a lid to prevent burns caused by splashing.

Do not overheat your pan to avoid fumes that could be dangerous for small animals with particularly sensitive respiratory systems, like birds. We recommend that birds should not be kept in the kitchen.
