USING YOUR COOKWARE - Before using your cookware for the first time, hand-wash with warm soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. - Cook 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. - Keep the cookware on the burner only during the necessary time for cooking. Do not overheat empty cookware or allow gas flames to extend up sides of pans and overheat handles. Caution: Do not allow cookware to boil for prolonged periods of time, as all liquids may evaporate, resulting in overheated cookware. Should this inadvertently occur, never submerge overheated cookware into cool or tepid water, as this will permanently damage the cookware''s construction and may void the warranty. Instead, allow pan to remain on stovetop until it cools completely. If cookware is allowed to boil dry, we recommend discontinuing use. - Your cookware is oven-safe up to 350°F (176°C). Even though the handles and lids are oven-safe, they will get hot in the oven and on the stovetop, particularly gas stoves where an open flame is used. Therefore, please use protective mitts to safely handle hot cookware. - Do not leave or store food remains in the cookware for long periods of time. Superficial pitting may occur if very salty or acidic foods (such as tomatoes) 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 BASE COOKWARE - Stainless steel cookware is dishwasher safe. However, we recommend 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®. IMPORTANT - OVEN-SAFE UP TO 350ºF (176ºC). - TO AVOID INJURY, ALWAYS USE PROTECTIVE MITTS WHEN HANDLING HOT COOKWARE - USE ONLY LOW TO MEDIUM HEAT
