The Tefal Multicook & Grains appliance is a versatile multicooker designed for various cooking tasks, particularly for grains and multicooking functions. It features a user-friendly control panel with an LCD screen and multiple keys for menu selection, temperature/timer adjustments, and program control.
The multicooker offers a wide range of pre-set programs for both grain-based dishes and general multicooking. The "Nutrition Menu" is an automatic cooking mode specifically tailored for grains, allowing users to adapt the cooking mode for different food textures and serving sizes. This menu includes programs for white rice, brown rice, buckwheat, quinoa, lentils, beans, baby porridge, and a brown rice + green lentils combination. Each program offers options for different textures (Nutri+, Quick, Normal, Soft) and indicates approximate soaking and cooking times, as well as the number of persons it serves.
The "Multicook Menu" provides additional cooking functions such as Pilaf/Risotto, Steam, Slow Cook, Browning, Pasta, Bake, Soup, Bread Rising, Dessert, Cream Cheese, Yogurt, and Jam. These programs also offer automatic or manual settings for temperature and cooking time, with some functions allowing for delayed start.
Key features include:
The appliance comes with several accessories:
The control panel features:
The temperature range for manual multicooking programs varies, with some programs like "Browning" reaching up to 160°C and "Bread Rising" operating at lower temperatures like 40°C. Cooking times also vary significantly depending on the program, from a few minutes for "Pasta" to several hours for "Yogurt."
Before first use, the appliance and its accessories should be unpacked and cleaned thoroughly. The inner lid and pressure valve are removable for cleaning. All elements must be correctly reassembled, and the power cord connected before use.
When operating, ensure the cooking bowl is correctly placed inside the appliance and the inner lid is properly positioned and closed with a "click." The appliance is intended for indoor use only. Users should avoid touching the heating element when the product is plugged in or after cooking, and gloves are recommended when handling the hot bowl and baskets.
The maximum quantity of water and ingredients should not exceed the "MAX" mark inside the bowl. The steam vents should not be blocked during cooking. Metal utensils should not be used in the bowl to avoid damaging its surface. The dew collector must be emptied after each cooking. Deep frying is prohibited with this appliance.
For grain cooking, the appliance guides the user through steps such as selecting the program, desired texture, number of servings, adding grains, and adding water. Pictograms on the LCD screen indicate each step. For some programs like "Beans," a soaking phase is included, and users are prompted to drain the soaking water before proceeding to cooking.
For multicooking programs, users can adjust time and, for some functions, temperature. The appliance provides visual and auditory signals to indicate the start and end of cooking, as well as transitions between phases (e.g., water boiling for pasta).
Regular cleaning and maintenance are crucial for the longevity and safe operation of the multicooker.
The manual includes a technical troubleshooting guide for common issues such as:
If the inner bowl is deformed, it should be replaced by an authorized service center. The appliance contains recyclable materials and should be disposed of at a local civic waste collection point.
