OVEN SAFETY AND STOVETOPS: - Tri-ply stainless steel cookware is oven-safe up to 500°F (350°F if using a glass lid) and can be used on all cooktops and heat sources. Remember to lift, not drag, the cookware off the stovetop to prevent scratching. - Do not use tri-ply stainless steel cookware in the microwave or broiler.

USE: - Before first use, hand-wash the cookware with warm, soapy water. - Preheat your pan on low to medium heat for a couple of minutes. Once heated, pour enough cold oil into the pan to cover the cooking surface. - To avoid food sticking, do not disturb the food and allow the natural sugars to caramelize in the pan and release naturally. If the heat is too high, sticking may occur, so use low to medium heat, except when boiling. - Use oven mitts when removing cookware from the oven, as the handles will be hot. - Metal, wood, plastic, and heat-resistant nylon tools are safe to use with stainless steel cookware. Avoid using knives, sharp kitchen tools, or an electric hand mixer, as they may scratch the lining.

CLEANING: - Tri-ply cookware is dishwasher-safe, but hand-washing with warm, soapy water is recommended. Allow the pan to cool before washing. - To remove stuck-on foods, fill the cookware with a small amount of water and place it over low heat until the food softens and becomes easy to remove. - Use a specialist stainless steel cookware cleaning product and follow the instructions on the label. - Discoloration may occur from using too high of heat. To remove it, rub the cookware with a cloth dampened with lemon juice or white vinegar, or use a specialist stainless steel cookware cleaning product and follow the instructions on the label.
