IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

  • When in use, do not leave cookware unattended. Keep children away from the stove and hot surfaces.

  • Do not allow the cookware to boil or cook dry.

  • Use the handles when lifting cookware. Refrain from sliding and dragging off from stovetops to help prevent scratches and surface damage. If necessary, always use dry potholders or oven mitts when touching the handles of the cookware and their respective lids.

USE

  • Pre-heat your pan on low to medium heat for a couple of minutes.

  • Once heated, add a little oil or butter to cover the interior.

  • Avoid overheating to prevent food or oil from burning onto the cookware. Do not let your oil smoke or burn.

  • To prevent sticking and discoloration, make sure to use low to medium heat only except when boiling.

  • Always place the cookware on an appropriately sized burner. Do not use a burner larger in diameter than the base of the pan.

  • Use metal, wood, silicone, and heat-resistant nylon tools on stainless steel cookware.

  • Do not use knives, sharp kitchen tools, or electric hand mixers in the cookware to avoid scratches in the interior.
