FAQs
Is the Tefal Start Easy frypan truly non-stick?
Yes, it features a Titanium non-stick coating reinforced with Titanium particles, designed for durable non-stick cooking performance and easy food release.
What does the Thermo-Signal mean?
The Thermo-Signal is a heat indicator on the pan that turns solid red when the pan reaches the optimal cooking temperature, ensuring your food is cooked at the right time.
Can I use this pan on an induction hob?
Yes, the Tefal Start Easy frypan is suitable for all hob types, including induction, thanks to its Thermo-Fusion base.
What types of utensils should I use with this frypan?
To protect the non-stick coating, it is recommended to use utensils made of silicone, wood, or plastic. Avoid metal utensils.
How do I clean the frypan?
The frypan is dishwasher safe for easy cleaning. However, hand washing with a soft sponge and mild detergent is recommended to preserve the non-stick coating's longevity.
Is the non-stick coating safe?
Yes, the coating is 100% safe, containing no PFOA, lead, or cadmium, and is subject to stricter controls than current food contact regulations require.
Can I put this frypan in the oven?
Yes, the frypan is oven safe up to 175°C, allowing for versatility in cooking and finishing dishes.
Troubleshooting
Food sticking to the pan
Ensure the pan is adequately preheated using the Thermo-Signal. Use a small amount of cooking oil or butter. Avoid using metal utensils which can damage the coating.
Uneven cooking
Verify that the pan is centered on the hob burner. Ensure the hob is set to an appropriate heat level for even distribution. Clean the Thermo-Fusion base if it appears dirty.
Non-stick coating appears worn or damaged
Cease use if the non-stick surface is visibly scratched or peeling. This can occur from using metal utensils, abrasive cleaning, or excessive high heat. Hand washing and avoiding metal utensils are key to preventing this.
Thermo-Signal is not changing color
Ensure the pan is clean and dry. The indicator works best on medium heat; very low heat may not trigger the color change. If the issue persists after multiple attempts, the indicator may be malfunctioning.
