T-fal 99LITUC1 Pure Cook Non-Stick 4.7 Inch One Egg Wonder
Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to the world of T-fal® cookware! T-fal cookware is designed to provide many years of cooking enjoyment, superior performance and maintenance-free service.
Product Information
The T-fal cookware is designed with various features to enhance your cooking experience. The cookware comes with a non-stick coating that is formulated not to chip or peel under normal household use. The hard enamel exterior finishes are prone to discoloration and becoming dull due to dishwasher detergents, while the polished or brushed aluminum exteriors should not be cleaned in the dishwasher to avoid discoloration. Some T-fal cookware with a hard anodized exterior is not dishwasher safe, so please refer to the cookware’s outer packaging for dishwasher compatibility. The cookware also features handles and knobs for easy handling and sets with attachable strainers for added convenience.
Product Usage Instructions
- Before using the cookware, be sure to read and understand all the use and care instructions provided in the user manual.
- For sets that come with a strainer, only use the strainer on 2qt (18cm) and 3qt (20cm) saucepans. Do not leave the strainer attached during cooking.
- Ensure that the strainer is firmly engaged and there is no movement.
- When cooking on a stovetop, use the T-fal cookware as directed in your recipe or according to your desired cooking method.
- Avoid overheating the cookware, as it can cause brown or blue stains. Use a heat setting appropriate for your cooking needs and avoid using high heat settings in an empty or minimally filled pan.
- Discoloration may also occur if food films from past cooking are not properly or fully removed when reheating. Additionally, large amounts of iron in your water can cause discoloration, resulting in the pot looking slightly rusty.
- Use appropriate utensils that are safe for non-stick cookware to prevent scratching or damaging the non-stick coating.
- If using the cookware in the oven or broiler, follow the manufacturer’s instructions and guidelines for temperature and usage.
- Clean the cookware according to the provided cleaning instructions. Be aware that hard enamel exterior finishes may discolor and become dull due to dishwasher detergents, and polished or brushed aluminum exteriors should not be cleaned in the dishwasher to avoid discoloration.
- For any questions or concerns related to the product, contact the T-fal Consumer Relations Helpline or visit their website for additional information, recipes, and special offers.
QUICK START TIPS
- Remove all labels and packaging materials
- Before first use on nonstick cookware, wash then wipe the coating with cooking oil.
GENERAL COOKING TIPS
- Never leave cookware unattended while cooking.
- Use low to medium heat with your T-fal cookware. Aluminum cookware conducts heat extremely quickly and evenly. High heat may damage your T-fal non-stick cookware, and this type of damage is not covered under the warranty.
- Never let cookware boil dry or leave an empty piece of cookware on a heated burner.
- Select the proper burner size so that the heat touches only the bottom of the cookware and does not climb up the side walls.
- Do not use pans to flambé.
- Let pans cool before cleaning to prevent warping caused by extreme temperature shocks. Avoid any extreme temperature changes.
- Do not slide or drag cookware across the stovetop, as this may cause damage to both the cookware and the stove top.
HELPFUL HINTS ON LID USE
- When removing lids during cooking, tilt lid to direct steam away from you and keep hands and face away from steam vents.
- Do not use glass lids that have cracks, chips or scratches and do not attempt to make repairs to damaged cookware. Using damaged lids or cookware could lead to explosions or injuries to users or bystanders.
- Do not place hot glass lids under cold water, as the temperature change can break the glass. This is not covered under the warranty.
- Tempered glass lids are oven-safe to 350°F/175°C.
- Use potholders when handling hot pot with straining lid.
- When leaving a covered pan on the burner after the heat is turned down, be sure to leave the cover ajar or the steam vent open or else a vacuum seal may form. If a vacuum seal does form, do not attempt to remove the cover from the pan, and call the T-fal Consumer Relations Helpline.
HANDLES AND KNOBS
- Handles and knobs can get very hot under certain conditions. Always have pot holders available for use.
- When cooking, make sure handles are not positioned over other hot burners.
- Some handles and knobs that are attached with screws may loosen over time. If this occurs, they should be retightened. Do not overtighten, as this could result in damage to the lid or knob. If the screw cannot be tightened or handles are riveted or welded, call the T-fal Consumer Relations Helpline for assistance.
- Oven safe to 500°F/260°C if handles are all stainless steel. Oven safe to 350°F/175°C if handles have any phenolic, plastic parts. Oven safe to 400°F/204°C if handles have any silicone parts.
SETS WITH ATTACHABLE STRAINER
- For use only on 2qt( 18cm) and 3 qt (20cm) saucepans in sets that come with a strainer
- Do not leave the strainer attached during cooking
- Be sure the strainer is firmly engaged and there is no movement
COOKING WITH T-FAL ON A STOVETOP
T-fal NON-STICK
T-fal is a pioneer and innovator in the world of non-stick cookware. If
properly maintained, T-fal’s unique non-stick finish will provide years of
great cooking performance and easy cleaning. Preventing damage to the non-
stick finish will help to maximize product performance. By following these
care instructions, you can protect and get the most out of your investment in
T-fal cookware.
- NEVER cut food directly in the pan or gouge the non-stick surface in any way.
- With use, the non-stick surface may become slightly darker. This will not impair its performance. Slight surface marks or abrasions are normal and will NOT affect the performance of the non-stick coating.
- Non-stick cooking sprays are not necessary with non-stick cookware. The use of such sprays may create an invisible buildup on the surface of the pan that will affect the pan’s non-stick properties.
- If your T-fal product includes Thermo-Spot, this unique heat indicator will show when the pan is perfectly preheated to seal in the flavor of your food. When the design changes to a solid red “spot,” the pan is preheated to optimal temperature. Thermo-Spot is built into the non-stick surface of your pan, requires no special maintenance and should be treated just like the other non-stick surfaces on the pan. With normal use, Thermo-Spot will not wear off or lose effectiveness over time.
- Do not overheat cookware
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 stainless steel.
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. The ceramic surface provides easy release
while cooking and quick cleanup.
- 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.
- Highly resistant to heat. Ceramic coatings are perfect for searing and crisping with a drop of oil.
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 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.
Products with an induction base equal to 4.5 – 5 inches should not be used on
induction hobs over 5.5 inches.
UTENSILS
T-fal NON-STICK & CERAMIC COOKWARE
- Wooden or plastic utensils are recommended for most non-stick surfaces.
T-fal STAINLESS STEEL and TRI-PLY COOKWARE
- Use plastic, silicone or wooden utensils for best long-term results.
- Most metal utensils may be used with the exception of knives and whisks, but they may leave small scratch marks on the pan’s surface.
- Slight surface markings or abrasions are normal and will not diminish the performance of your cookware.
OVEN AND BROILER USE
- Always use potholders when moving cookware in to and out of the oven.
- T-fal cookware with phenolic (plastic) handles, with or without metal inserts is oven safe to 350°F/175°C. T-fal cookware with stainless steel handles with silicone inserts is oven safe to 400°F/204°C.
- T-fal cookware with handles made completely out of aluminum or stainless steel is oven-safe to 500°F/260°C.
- Do not use non-stick aluminum cookware under the broiler. This includes cookware with a ceramic interior surface.
- Stainless steel cookware without a non-stick interior, but with stainless steel handles, that do not include silicone inserts, is broiler safe.
- Be certain to place food at least 2 inches / 5 cm from broiler coils to avoid burning or overheating.
- T-fal cookware with handles that have soft-touch translucent portions is not oven safe. The handles may also discolor over time if
- placed in the dishwasher in contact with substances having strong food color, such as tomato sauce.
- Refer to product packaging for further details on oven use.

CLEANING
T-fal NON-STICK COOKWARE
Hand-washing is recommended.
- Hand-washing: Always wait for your cookware to cool before cleaning. T-fal cookware is easy to clean in warm, soapy water using a cloth or sponge. Never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads such as steel wool, scouring powder or oven cleaner. Stubborn spots can be removed with cleaners that specify “safe for non-stick surfaces.” When cleaning glass lids, do not use metal scouring pads or harsh abrasives, as they may scratch and weaken the glass.
- Dishwashing: Most T-fal non-stick cookware can be cleaned in a dishwasher, but be advised that hard enamel, brushed aluminum and stainless steel EXTERIOR finishes may discolor and become dull due to the abrasive nature of dishwasher detergents. These effects are not covered under the warranty. Some T-fal hard anodized non-stick cookware is NOT dishwasher safe. Please also refer to cookware outer packaging to determine if cookware is dishwasher safe. When placing non-stick cookware in the dishwasher, position the items vertically between the spikes of the dishwasher rack to minimize friction between the non-stick surface and the spikes during the washing cycle.
T-fal STAINLESS STEEL and TRI-PLY COOKWARE
Immerse in hot water. Use a fine powder cleanser with water to form a paste.
Apply paste using a soft cloth. Rub in a circular motion from the center
outward. Wash in hot soapy water, dry immediately. For T-fal Stainless Steel
Cookware with a copper band or bottom use any over-the-counter copper cleaner
to restore it to its natural luster. DO NOT USE oven cleaners or cleansers
with chlorine bleach. DO NOT USE steel wool, steel scouring pads or harsh
detergents. Nylon scrubbing pads are safe to use. Be advised that Stainless
Steel EXTERIOR finishes may discolor and become dull due to the abrasive
nature of dishwasher detergents. These effects are not covered under warranty.
Although T-fal Stainless Steel and Tri-Ply cookware is dishwasher safe,
handwashing is recommended. With Stainless Steel cookware, blue or yellow
discoloration may appear over time. This is a natural occurrence that may
result from overheating and does not indicate any problem with the cookware.
The discoloration can be removed with a special cleaner for stainless steel
cookware, or by adding lemon juice or vinegar to your regular cleaning
solution.
T-fal HARD ENAMEL COOKWARE
Be advised that Hard Enamel EXTERIOR finishes may discolor and become dull due
to the abrasive nature of dishwasher detergents. These effects are not covered
under warranty.
T-fal COOKWARE WITH POLISHED OR BRUSHED ALUMINUM EXTERIORS
To avoid discoloration, T-fal cookware with polished aluminum or brushed
aluminum exteriors should not be cleaned in the dishwasher.
T-fal HARD ANODIZED COOKWARE
Some T-fal cookware with hard anodized exterior is not dishwasher safe. Please
refer to cookware outer packaging to determine if your
T-fal hard anodized cookware is dishwasher safe.
T-fal CERAMIC COOKWARE
Dishwasher Safe; however, handwashing is recommended.
DO NOT USE DISHWASHER DETERGENT TABS, AS THE CONCENTRATED CLEANING AGENTS WILL
DAMAGE THE COOKWARE’S FINISH.
- For best results, use only those products which clearly state “safe for cleaning non-stick surfaces.”
- Expert tip: Ceramic coating is easy to clean and offers strong release. However, you may want to add butter or oils to enhance performance and flavor. Cooking sprays are also safe. Minor surface marring, scratches, or chipping is normal and will not affect the performance of the coating. Handle the cookware gently to avoid chipping the ceramic surface.
GENERAL SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
- Keep children away from the stove while you are cooking. Be careful around the stove, as heat, steam and splatter can cause injury.
- Do not touch hot cookware with a wet cloth or potholder or put it on a wet surface.
- Hot cookware should be placed on heat-resistant surfaces only. For surfaces that are not heat-resistant, it is recommended to place cookware on a trivet or potholder to protect surface from the heat.
- Do not add cold water, ice or fully frozen food items directly to a hot pan, as a steam eruption could occur that could cause burns or other injury to users or bystanders. Be especially cautious in this regard when the pan contains hot oils used during cooking, as steam eruptions are possible when elements containing water are brought into contact with hot oil.
- When boiling water, add salt to water only after it has come to a boil to keep salt grains from damaging the steel components of the cookware.
- Do not combine cookware to make a double boiler. These pieces are not designed for that purpose, and such use could result in steam-related burns or another injury to users or bystanders.
- T-fal cookware cannot be used in a microwave, over a campfire or on any type of grill, and should not be placed in the oven during the self-clean cycle. Only T-fal stainless steel cookware with all stainless steel handles can be used in a broiler.
- T-fal cookware is compatible with gas, spiral or solid electric, ceramic (radiant) and halogen range tops. See packaging for further details. T-fal stainless steel products are suitable for use on all types of rangetops, including induction.
