Use and Care Manual

Use & Care Instructions
USING YOUR COOKWARE
• Before using your cookware for the first time, hand-wash with warm, soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly. Then season by lightly
rubbing cooking oil onto the cooking surface and heating the cookware over medium heat for two to three minutes. When cool, hand-
wash in warm, soapy water then rinse and dry thoroughly.
• Do not use nonstick aerosol cooking sprays in your cookware. They will leave a residue, which may be difficult to remove, and will
cause foods to stick to the cookware.
• To preserve the look and performance of your pan, we recommend using silicone, nylon, bamboo or wood utensils when cooking.
Regardless of how hard the cooking surface is, using metal utensils or sharp objects may damage the cooking surface over time and
void the warranty.
• Cook or boil using low to medium heat only. Since aluminum yields excellent conductivity and delivers even heat distribution, the
usage of high heat is not necessary. In fact, the use of high heat can permanently discolor and damage your cookware and void the
warranty.
• Keep the cookware on the burner only during the necessary time for cooking. Do not overheat empty cookware.
• Your cookware is oven-safe up to 350ºF (176ºC). Even though the handles are oven-safe, they will get hot in the oven and on the
stove top, particularly gas stoves where an open flame is used. Therefore, please use protective mitts to safely handle the cookware.
Do not use under an oven broiler unit.
• Avoid sudden temperature changes such as immersing hot cookware in cold water. Always let the cookware cool before washing.
Cleaning and Caring For Your Cookware
• Interior Cleaning: The nonstick cooking surface on your cookware ensures easy cleanup with just soap and water. Should burnt
grease or food residue collect on the surface, it can usually be removed with warm water and a mild detergent. For extreme cases,
residue can be removed with a thorough cleaning using Soft Scrub®. Do not use abrasive cleansers, steel wool or coarse scouring
pads.
• Your cookware is dishwasher-safe. However, we recommend hand-washing and drying to optimize the life and performance of the
interior and exterior finishes.
Using Your Deep Fryer
• Fry basket is designed to be used with 4 Qt vessel only.
• To avoid overflow, do not fill fryer with more than 1.12 quarts/1.06 liters of oil. It is recommended to only fry half a basket of food at a
time, as placing too much food in the fry basket may cause hot oil to overflow. Additionally, the items will not get crisp if too much food
is fried at the same time.
• Prior to deep frying, it is important to remove excess moisture and ice crystals from food by blotting with a paper towel. If not removed,
the excess moisture will cause foaming, splattering and possible oil overflow.
• Use caution when slowly lowering the wire basket into the pan to avoid oil overflow and splattering. The stainless steel lid should be
placed on the deep fryer during use to reduce oil splattering.
• Occasionally stir food gently while frying to prevent foods from sticking together.
• Keep the deep fryer on burner only during necessary time for cooking. Overheating may cause pan discoloration and loss of nonstick
performance.
• Always let oil cool before dispensing into a container.
Please note:
The use of high heat combined with oil residue can permanently discolor your deep fryer. Browning and scratches may appear after
extended use. This is the nature of the item and is not harmful in any way.
