FAQs

Is this pan induction compatible?

No, the Tefal Titanium Essential Frying Pan is not compatible with induction cooktops. It is suitable for gas, electric, and ceramic hobs.

Can I use metal utensils with this pan?

Yes, the pan is metal spatula safe, meaning you can use metal utensils. However, avoid sharp or aggressive scraping to maximize the lifespan of the non-stick coating.

How do I know when the pan is hot enough to cook?

The pan features Tefal's Thermo-Signal technology. When the pan reaches the ideal cooking temperature, the red thermo-spot in the center will turn a solid red color.

How should I clean the pan?

For best results and to preserve the non-stick coating, hand wash the pan with warm, soapy water and a soft sponge after it has cooled. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

What is the benefit of the non-stick coating inside and out?

The non-stick coating on both surfaces ensures food releases easily during cooking and makes the pan very simple and quick to clean after use.

How durable is the non-stick coating?

The pan features Tefal's longest-lasting non-stick coating, engineered for durability and intensive everyday use. However, proper care and use of appropriate utensils will help maintain its performance.

Troubleshooting

Food is sticking to the pan.

Ensure the pan is adequately preheated using the Thermo-Signal indicator. Lightly oil the surface before adding food. Check if the non-stick coating is damaged or worn.

Non-stick coating appears to be damaged.

Inspect the pan for scratches from utensils or cleaning. If damage is significant, consider replacement. Avoid using metal utensils if you wish to preserve the coating.

Pan is not heating evenly.

Ensure the heat source is centered under the pan. For electric or ceramic hobs, check that the pan base is flat and making full contact. Ensure the hob's heat output is appropriate for the pan size.

Difficulty cleaning the exterior.

Use a non-abrasive sponge and warm, soapy water. For stubborn residue, a paste of baking soda and water can be gently applied and then washed off. Avoid harsh scouring pads.
