Before using, rinse in warm water using dish detergent and a soft sponge, then wipe dry. Use a low heat setting when cooking to avoid burning food and tarnishing the cookware. Allow cookware to cool before washing. Hand wash only. Do not clean in dishwasher. Do not use abrasive cleaners as this may mar the finish. We recommend using cleansers expressly meant for cleaning stainless steel and copper. To prevent water spots, wipe cookware dry after washing. Overheating and food residue may result in discoloration. Undissolved salt may cause pitting of stainless steel, therefore it is best to heat foods and liquids before adding salt and stir until salt is dissolved.
Important Information. Do not leave food that is cooking unattended. To avoid injury always use caution when handling hot cookware. Never leave empty cookware on a hot burner. This will ruin your cookware, may cause household damage and will void your warranty. Do not put hot cookware directly on a cool surface as this may damage the integrity of the cookware. Use pan on burner of same size. When using gas range, adjust flame so that it does not extend up sides of pan.
