- Before using your pan for the first time, hand-wash with warm soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly, then season by lightly rubbing cooking oil onto the interior surface and heating the pan 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 pan. They will leave a residue, which may be difficult to remove, and will cause foods to stick to the pan.
- 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 pan and void the warranty.
- Keep the pan on the burner only during the necessary time for cooking or boiling. Do not overheat an
empty pan.
- Your pan 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 pan. Do not use under an oven broiler unit.
- Avoid sudden temperature changes such as immersing hot pan in cold water. Always let the pan cool before washing.
Understanding Tempered Glass Lids, Use & Care
- Industrial glass is tempered by a controlled thermal treatment process to increase its strength when compared with normal glass.
- The thermal treatment of glass creates balanced internal stresses which cause the glass, when broken, to crumble into small granular chunks instead of splintering into jagged shards.
- The granular chunks are less likely to cause injury, making tempered glass lids safer for use within household kitchens provided the instructions below are observed.
Cleaning And Caring For Your Tempered Glass Lid
- Extra caution must be used when handling glass lids.
- When cleaning a glass lid, do not use abrasive cleansers, steel wool or coarse scouring pads, as they may scratch the surface of the glass lid, which may cause breakage over time.
Thermal Shock
- Avoid sudden temperature changes such as placing a hot lid on a cold surface or immersing a hot lid in cold water.
- Always let the lid cool before washing, as sudden temperature changes can break the glass.
- Do not place a cold lid from the refrigerator directly in a heated oven or on a hot pan. Allow the lid to reach room temperature prior to use.
IMMEDIATELY DISCONTINUE THE USE of a lid that has been damaged during transportation, accidentally dropped or shows signs of damage or scratching. Continuing to use a damaged tempered glass lid may cause shattering without warning, leading to possible injuries to users or bystanders.
Contact the manufacturer for replacement information.
Caution
- Glass lid is oven-safe up to 350°f (176°C)
- Avoid sudden or severe temperature changes
- Do not immerse hot lid in cold water
- Thermal shock can damage a tempered glass lid
- Immediately discontinue use of a damaged lid
