Non-stick coating on basket or pan is peeling or flaking.

Safety first: Discontinue use of heavily flaking non-stick surfaces to avoid ingestion of coating particles.

Inspection and care:

• Inspect the basket and pan for areas of peeling or deep scratches.
• Switch to silicone, wooden, or plastic utensils to prevent further damage.
• Use only soft sponges and mild detergents for cleaning.

Repair:

• Replace the damaged basket and/or pan assembly with genuine T-fal non-stick parts.
