Before First Use

• Remove all packaging, labels and protective materials.
• Wash the cookware with mild dishwashing detergent and a soft, non-scratch sponge.
• Rinse thoroughly and dry completely.

During Cooking

• Use low to medium heat. The die-cast aluminium body conducts and retains heat efficiently.
• Avoid prolonged high heat and never leave empty cookware heating unattended.
• Select a cooking zone that closely matches the diameter of the cookware base.
• Use a small amount of oil or butter when required.
• Use wooden, silicone or nylon utensils to help protect the ceramic non-stick surface.
• Avoid metal utensils, knives or sharp objects that may scratch the coating.
• Handles, helper handles and lid knobs may become warm during prolonged cooking. Use suitable hand protection when necessary.
• Lift cookware when moving it across glass or ceramic stovetops; do not drag it.
• Glass lids are designed for stovetop cooking. Avoid direct flame, impact and sudden temperature changes.

Cleaning

• Allow the cookware and lid to cool naturally before washing.
• Do not place hot cookware into cold water, as sudden temperature changes may cause damage.
• Hand wash using mild detergent, warm water and a soft, non-scratch sponge.
• For stubborn residue, soak the cookware in warm soapy water before cleaning gently.
• Do not use steel wool, abrasive cleaning pads, harsh chemicals or oven cleaner.
• Clean the exterior after every use to prevent stains and residue from becoming baked onto the surface.
• Dry thoroughly before storage.

Protecting the Non-Stick Surface

• Avoid overheating, thermal shock and the use of sharp utensils.
• Do not cut food directly inside the cookware.
• Cooking sprays are not recommended, as repeated use may leave a difficult-to-remove residue.
• Slight changes in the appearance of the cooking surface may occur with regular use and do not necessarily affect performance.
• Replace the cookware if the coating becomes deeply scratched, blistered, peeling or otherwise severely damaged.

Storage

• Store only when completely clean and dry.
• Place a soft pan protector, cloth or paper towel between pieces when stacking.
• Avoid placing heavy or sharp objects directly against the cooking surface.
• Store glass lids carefully to protect them from impact.
