Before First Use

Remove all labels and hang tags. Wash cookware with a mild dish

soap and warm water. Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry immediately

Pans with nonstick surfaces should be wiped with cooking oil

to condition them.

Stovetop Use

Cookware is suitable for all range tops: gas, electric, ceramic or

induction. Always use a low-medium heat setting. To boil water,

surfaces must be treated and are not suitable for dry cooking: select

either oil, butter or a cooking spray to use and completely cover

the pan’s inside base before heating begins. Nonstick surfaces can

be used dry, but pay careful attention not to overheat any surface.

Always use potholders to grip side handles or cover knobs, as they

will become hot. Never leave pans unattended at any time while

cooking. Never leave an empty pan over a hot burner; doing so

could ruin the cookware and cause damage to the stovetop.

Oven Use

Pans are oven safe to 500°F. Caution should be used when

handling any cookware handles. Always use potholders to grip

side handles or cover knobs, as they will become hot.

Serving

Place hot pans on trivet or wooden board when serving. Never

place a hot pan directly on an unprotected surface.

Cooking Utensils

To protect and preserve the surface of the pans, use only wooden,

plastic or heat-resistant nylon kitchen tools to avoid scratching

the enamel interior. We do not recommend using metal utensils,

as they may scratch pan’s surface (but will not impair its

performance). Do not cut food directly in the cookware. You may

use hand blenders or mixers directly in the cookware; this may

other metal pads that make coarse scratches. Rinse thoroughly

and dry immediately. If preferred, cookware may be cleaned

in the dishwasher. Scrub pan edges gently to clean if there is any

discoloration or residue. To remove tough stains, cleaning products

such as Bon Ami® or a little warm vinegar may be used. Cover

knobs may become loose over a period of time. We recommend

checking them occasionally and tightening knobs as needed.

Storage

Do not store pans when they are still damp and always store

carefully in a dry cupboard area. Avoid stacking and overcrowding

when storing cookware to prevent scratching and chipping of cast

iron surface.
