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 nonstick cooking surface and heating 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 cookware, 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. - Be careful when stacking or nesting your cookware. Although it won''t affect the cookware''s performance, bumping or knocking against other pieces will scratch or blemish the exterior and interior surfaces. - Cook using low to medium heat only. Since hard anodized cookware 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). - Avoid sudden temperature changes such as immersing hot cookware in cold water. - Handwashing recommended.
