Using Your Tri-Ply Clad 18/10 Stainless Steel Cookware: Before using your cookware for the first time, hand-wash with warm, soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly. Cook or boil using low to medium heat only. Cookware with tri-ply base construction requires only low to medium heat to sauté, fry or cook most foods. Using a high heat setting causes the tri-ply base to become very hot, which may cause foods to stick, burn or scorch if added to very hot cookware. The use of high heat can permanently discolor and damage your cookware and void the warranty. Do not overheat empty cookware or allow gas flames to extend up the sides of pans and overheat handles. Do not allow cookware to boil for prolonged periods of time, as all liquids may evaporate, resulting in overheated cookware. Allow cookware to remain on stovetop until it cools completely. If cookware is allowed to boil dry, we recommend discontinuing use. Superficial pitting may occur if very salty or acidic foods are left in the cookware. Avoid sudden temperature changes such as immersing hot cookware in cold water. Always let the cookware cool before washing. Cleaning and Caring For Your Tri-Ply Clad 18/10 Stainless Steel Cookware: We recommend hand-drying the cookware immediately after the rinse cycle or hand-washing and drying to preserve the original finish. Prolonged exposure to high heat settings may cause your cookware to discolor. To recondition your cookware or to remove stubborn spots or stains, use a nonabrasive pad and quality stainless steel cleanser such as Bar Keepers Friend®. Thermal Shock: 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.
