ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION The packaging of your product is recyclable. Do not dispose of it with the rest of your waste but rather recycle the packaging or bring it to your nearest recycling facility. Your appliance has been designed to work for many years. However, when you finally decide to replace your old product, remember to think of what you can do to help to protect the environment by disposing of it at your local waste disposal centre.
INTRODUCTION Now you can make a great tasting, healthy meal in minutes with your new Emerilware™ Steamer by T-fal®. Because it’s designed to steam faster and lock in flavors, foods taste better. At the same time, more vitamins and minerals are preserved. Because Emeril knows you’re always in a hurry for something good, he’s given you three separate steaming compartments, so you can cook three different things at the same time. Two compartments are sized at 10 1⁄2 cups each.
