How does the Emeril by T-fal appliance work?

This is a versatile multi-function electric cooker which can be used like a small electric oven. The

stainless steel lid has an integrated enclosed electric element which provides the heat. A clear

viewing window in the lid allows you to check on the cooking process while the heat and mois-

ture remain inside. Any steam escapes through the steam vent in the viewing window.

The pan can also be used directly on the stove to brown food before cooking, which is ideal for

one-pot meals. The stand holds the removable pan, which has two carrying handles, ensuring

that no heat transfers to the work surface or table.

What can you cook in the Emeril by T-fal appliance?

Unlike a traditional oven, there is no need to worry about selecting different temperatures for

different recipes with this appliance. Just press the on/off switch and amazingly it can roast,

bake, grill, poach and saute all your favorite recipes.

In general, there is no need to adapt recipes when cooking in the appliance. Use the timings

in the recipe book as a guide. Do remember that the Emeril by T-fal appliance is not a slow

cooker.

What types of stove is the Emeril by T-fal appliance pan

suitable for?

The pan is suitable for use on gas, radiant electric, solid electric, ceramic and halogen stoves.

The pan is not suitable for use on an induction cook top.

Thank you for buying the Emeril by T-fal appliance. Before using it, please take a few

moments to read these instructions and look at the recipe book, so that you can famil-

iarize yourself with how it works. If you have any difficulties using your appliance, please

look at the section ‘A few tips in case of problems’ on page 14 for advice.

For your safety, this product conforms to all applicable standards and regulations (Low Voltage

Directive, Electromagnetic compatibility, Food Compliant Materials, …)

Using your Emeril by T-fal appliance

Before first use

• Before using for the first time, carefully

unpack the appliance and remove all pack-

aging, stickers, labels and tags - Fig 1.

• Remove the lid (4) and wash the cooking

pan (8) in warm water and dish soap.

Rinse and dry thoroughly.

• Wipe the lid with a damp cloth with a drop

of dish soap on it. Rinse off with a damp

sponge soaked in clean water and dry thor-

oughly - Fig 2.

• Before using the pan for the first time,

condition the non-stick coated interior by

spreading one teaspoon of cooking oil over

the interior with a paper kitchen towel. Wipe

off any excess. You should then condition

the pan regularly to maintain the perform-

ance of the non-stick coating.

Never use metal scouring pads, abrasive

wire wool or harsh scouring powder to

clean the pan or any part of the appliance

as they may damage it.

Never immerse the lid

in water or under

running water.

Never clean the lid

in a dishwasher.

Only use the pan provided

with the appliance or provided by the

manufacturer or its service center agent.

Only use the lid with the pan and the sup-

port stand provided with the appliance.

Emeril-2026102721 11/10/12 14:28 Page6

Assembling

• Place the support stand (9) on a flat, stable

heat-resistant surface. Place the pan (8) in-

side the support stand (9) aligning the han-

dles on the pan with the recesses (10) on the

support stand - Fig 3.

• Place the lid (4) on the pan with the long

pan handle (5) positioned at the front - Fig

• Always ensure that the lid is fitted correctly.

Close supervision is necessary when any

appliance is used by or near children.

Cooking with your Emeril by T-fal appliance

• Prepare your recipe and place the food in-

side the pan (8). You do not need to pre-

heat.

• To avoid spills do not fill the pan more than

two-thirds full.

• Place the lid (4) on the pan with the long lid

handle (5) positioned at the front.

• Plug the Emeril by T-fal appliance into the

wall outlet ensuring the cable is fully un-

wound - Fig 5. Press the On/Off switch (6),

the light comes on and the appliance heats

up - Fig 6. The light stays on constantly dur-

ing cooking.

• If the lid is fitted incorrectly, the safety sys-

tem does not allow cooking to start and the

light will not come on. Refit the lid.

• To avoid your appliance from overheating,

do not use aluminium foil to cook, cover or

wrap food.

• To avoid damaging your appliance, do not

cook flambé dishes in it.

• Always use plastic or wooden utensils to pre-

serve the pans non-stick coating. Avoid using

sharp edged utensils.

Never use the appliance when it is empty.

On first use, there may be a slight odor

and a little smoke during the first few min-

utes.

Do not use the pan in a conventional oven.

Do not:

- use aluminium foil between the pan and

the lid,

- use aluminium foil to protect food from

over browning,

- cook food wrapped in aluminium foil, for

example when roasting.

All these actions can result in the lid over-

heating causing the plastic parts on the lid

to become too hot and possibly melt.

Do not slice or cut food directly in the pan

- Fig 9.

Do not move the appliance when in use.

To prevent damage to the pan only use it

with the lid (4) and support stand (9) for

which it was designed to operate with.

The lid and pan get very hot during and

after cooking, never touch the lid or pan -

Fig 10. Always use the handles and oven

gloves.

Using your Emeril by T-fal appliance pan on the stove

• The pan can be used on all types of stove

tops except induction.

• For all types of stove, check your stove man-

ufacturer’s manual for the advice on a suit-

able size flame or ring to best match the pan

base diameter and maximum pan base di-

ameter.

• On a gas stove, the flame must not exceed

the pan’s base diameter - Fig 12. as this

risks damaging the pan handles.

• On an electric stove, use a plate whose diam-

eter is equal to or smaller than that of the

base of the pan.

• On glass top surfaces, such as ceramic and

halogen, take care that your stove and the

base of the pan are perfectly clean (to avoid

anything getting trapped between the pan

and the stove, thereby scratching the sur-

face). Always lift the pan and do not slide or

drag it across the glass stove surface.

Never leave your pan unattended when

cooking food on the stove.

Do not use the for deep fat frying as the

pan is too shallow in height.

Never cook on a high or maximum heat –

in excess of 375° F – as this may damage

the non-stick coating, burn food, produce

stains or damage the base of the product.

Never heat the pan empty, unless you are

heating oil in the pan ready for frying.

Never allow the pan to boil dry.

• At the end of cooking, carefully remove the

lid holding the long handle (5) and short

handle (1) to fully support the lid - Fig 7.

Important: the underside and top of the

lid are extremely hot during cooking and

remain so for a long while afterwards.

When removing the lid, turn it upside down

and place it on a heat resistant surface - Fig

• Allow the pan to cool completely first before

storing in a refrigerator.

• If you want to cook a second batch of food

in the appliance, the cooking times will be

slightly less if the appliance is already hot.

The hot lid must avoid contact with any

surfaces or materials affected by heat.

Do not use the Emeril by T-fal appliance as

a deep fat fryer.

Important: Never use the lid (4) when using the pan directly on the stove - Fig 11.

Emeril-2026102721 11/10/12 14:28 Page8

• Always dry the base of the pan before cook-

ing, especially if you use it on a ceramic or

halogen stove, otherwise the pan may stick

to the stove.

• Center your pan over the heat source (this

prevents damage to the handle and exterior

coating).

• If using sugar or course salt, wait for it to dis-

solve before stirring in the pan (if not, the

grains may scratch the surface).

• After prolonged usage some minor discol-

oration of the non-stick coating may occur.

This is quite normal and will not affect the

non-stick properties of your cookware.

Safety features

If the lid is incorrectly positioned the safety system does not allow cooking to start.

Refit the lid.

Care and cleaning

To clean the pan

• Turn off the appliance by pressing the

ON/Off switch (6), the light goes out - Fig 13.

• Unplug the appliance - Fig 14.

• Leave the pan to cool completely before

cleaning.

• After each use, wash the pan with a sponge

in warm water and dish soap. Rinse and dry

thoroughly.

• Alternatively, clean in a dishwasher but take

care that the pan does not obstruct the ro-

tating dishwasher blades - Fig 15. Do not

leave your pan in the dishwasher after the

cycle has finished. To maintain the perform-

ance of the non-stick coating, repeat the

‘conditioning’ after dishwashing is recom-

mend (see “Before First Use”).

• If you accidentally burn food in the pan fill

it with warm water and dish soap and leave

to soak for about an hour. Afterwards wash

as normal and use a non-abrasive sponge (a

non-stick scouring sponge) if necessary. The

non-stick coating should then be recondi-

tioned with a little cooking oil wiped over the

surface with a paper kitchen towel to restore

its non-stick properties.

Never use metal scouring pads, abrasive

wire wool or harsh scouring powder to

clean the pan or any part of the appliance

as they may damage it.

Never use bleach or any products contain-

ing chlorine to clean any part of the appli-

ance.

Never put cold water into a hot pan or

plunge a hot pan in cold water. Sudden

changes of temperature may cause metal

to warp, resulting in an uneven base.

Do not place a hot pan on a surface which

will be damaged by heat.

If the pan is cleaned in a dishwasher, the

outer coating may become dulled and dis-

colored due to the action of certain deter-

gents. Our guarantee does not cover this

type of wear, however the performance of

the pan will not be affected.

Emeril-2026102721 11/10/12 14:28 Page9

To clean the lid and support stand

• Turn off the appliance by pressing the

ON/Off switch (6), the light goes out - Fig

13.

• Unplug the appliance - Fig 14.

• Leave the lid to cool for at least 1 hour be-

fore cleaning, moving or storing - Fig 16.

• To clean the underside and top of the lid (4),

viewing window (3) and support stand (9)

wipe with a damp sponge and a drop of dish

soap. Rinse off with damp sponge soaked in

clean water and dry thoroughly - Fig 17.

• Clean any stains around the rim of the lid

before using the next time to avoid anything

from being baked on. Use a scourer suitable

for use on non-stick, never an abrasive

scourer, together with warm water and a

drop of dish soap. Use on the rim only. Do

not use a non-stick scourer on any other part

of the lid as it could damage the lustre of

the stainless steel.

Do not immerse the lid in water or under

running water.

Never clean the lid and support stand in a

dishwasher - Fig 18.

Never use metal scouring pads, abrasive

wire wool or harsh scouring powder to

clean the lid or any part of the appliance

as they may damage it.

Storing your Emeril by T-fal appliance

• Unplug the appliance - Fig 14.•Leave the lid to cool for at least 1 hour be-

fore storing - Fig 16.

Advice on how to get the best from your

Emeril by T-fal appliance

• Everything is cooked from cold in the appli-

ance. There is no need to preheat the appli-

ance.

• Remove the lid as little as possible to retain

heat. Look through the viewing window to

check on the cooking progress or to see if

the food is sufficiently brown.

• There may be a few minutes variation in the

cooking or slight difference in the degree of

browning, even when cooking the same

recipe. This is because this appliance is more

sensitive to the variation in the initial tem-

perature of the food than a conventional

oven. Therefore, we advise you regularly

check on the cooking progress through the

viewing window near the end of the cooking

time.

• Aluminium foil must never be used in this

appliance as it can result in overheating

which could cause the plastic parts on the

lid to melt.

Use parchment paper as an alternative for

aluminium foil.

• This appliance cooks at a temperature of

375° F. When using existing recipes, take

this temperature into consideration and

alter your total cooking time accordingly.

• When roasting, use roasting bags or multi-

purpose cooking bags, available in large su-

permarkets, as they help prevent fat

splashing and make cleaning easier.

• Puddings and sponge cakes can be cooked

in either an ovenproof dish, silicone mould

or baking tin. If you are entertaining you can

cook puddings or cakes directly in the pan.

• When baking sponge cakes and puddings,

the edges often cook quicker than the cen-

ter. Instead of cooking one large cake or

pudding you may prefer to cook the recipe

in individual ovenproof ramekins, pudding

tins or silicone moulds. These can be

arranged in a ring around the outer edge of

the pan so that they cook and brown evenly.

• Test sponge cakes to check they are cooked

in the center before removing from the ap-

pliance. Insert a metal skewer or wooden

toothpick into the center and if any un-

cooked mixture is attached cook for a few

minutes longer. The cake should also be firm

to the touch.
