Product Usage Instructions
Before Using for the First Time:
- Remove all labels from the cookware and covers.
- Wash the cookware and cover in warm water with mild dish soap.
- Rinse thoroughly in warm water and wipe dry with a soft dishtowel.
Stovetop Cooking:
Select a burner size that matches the diameter of the pan bottom. When
cooking over a gas burner, ensure that the flame only touches the bottom of
the pan to avoid wasting energy. If the flame extends up the sides of the pan,
adjust the burner accordingly.
Cooking on a Glass Stovetop:
To prevent scratching the glass surface, avoid sliding the cookware on the
glass cooktop. Please refer to your glass cooktop manual for specific
instructions and recommendations.
Proper Cooking Utensils:
We recommend using plastic or wooden utensils to maintain the appearance
and performance of your Cuisinart Cookware. However, the Chef’s ClassicTM
Nonstick Hard Anodized line is metal-utensil safe. Avoid using sharp utensils
like forks, knives, mashers, or whisks that can scratch the cooking surface.
Convenient Storage:
Hanging pans by their handles on a cookware rack provides convenient and
safe storage for your Cuisinart Cookware. If you choose to store your cookware
in cabinets or drawers, take care to avoid careless stacking and crowding, as
it may cause scratches.
Note : The warranty excludes damage caused by accident, misuse or abuse, including overheating. It also does not cover scratches, stains, discoloration, or other damage that does not impair the functional utility of the cookware. The warranty may vary for California residents.
If you are a California resident and have nonconforming products, you can return them directly to Cuisinart for repair or replacement by calling the Consumer Service Center at 1-800-726-0190. Cuisinart will be responsible for the cost of the repair, replacement, and shipping and handling for such nonconforming products under warranty.

The aluminum core of this cookware heats quickly and its even heat distribution prevents hot spots. The dark interior color also allows food to cook more quickly with less heat. We recommend using a low to medium setting for most cooking. To boil water, medium-high is sufficient. Never leave Cuisinart Cookware or any pan empty over a hot burner. Doing so can ruin the pan and cause damage to the stovetop.
