Cuisinart IB-15733C Stainless Cookware
INTRODUCTION
Cuisinart® Stainless Steel Cookware is an investment that will prove its worth every time you use it. Exclusively designed aluminum encapsulated base provides superior heat conductivity and even heat distribution to meet the demands of gourmet chefs everywhere. When properly cared for, your Cuisinart® Stainless Steel Cookware will give countless years of service and pleasure. Follow the use and care suggestions in this leaflet to preserve and maintain the cookware’s original beauty.
ESSENTIAL PRECAUTIONS
Never use Cuisinart® Stainless Steel Cookware on high heat. Food will burn. The aluminum encapsulated base makes this cookware highly conductive and efficient for quick, even heat distribution. 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. Never leave cookware on the stovetop unattended. Cookware that overheats or boils dry may begin to decompose and melt, resulting in damage to your stovetop or cookware and/or creating a risk of personal injury. If cookware overheats, do not remove from the stovetop immediately. Turn off the heat and allow the cookware to cool naturally before removing from the stovetop.
BEFORE USING
Wash your new cookware in hot water with a mild soap or dish detergent, or in a dishwasher, before using for the first time. Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry immediately with a soft dishtowel, or you may place your Cuisinart® Stainless Steel Cookware in a dishwasher.

EASY MAINTENANCE
Immediately after each use, fill the pan with hot water and liquid dish detergent; let stand until lukewarm. Use a sponge or soft cloth to remove any remaining food particles. Do not use steel wool or other metal pads
that can scratch cookware. Rinse thoroughly and dry immediately for a flawless finish. Cuisinart® Stainless Steel Cookware features oven-safe handles and glass lids that can withstand oven temperatures up to 350°F. Caution should be used when handling any cookware handles, and we recommend the use of potholders. -
WHAT ABOUT THE DISHWASHER?
Cuisinart® Stainless Steel Cookware is dishwasher safe, but remember that soil from other dishes may be abrasive. If the dishwasher is carelessly packed,debris from other dishes or flatware may mar the surface of the cookware. Over a long period, regular dishwasher cleaning will eventually scratch any cookware. We recommend using a non-lemon detergent. -
WHAT ABOUT METAL UTENSILS?
We recommend using plastic or wooden utensils with your Cuisinart® Stainless Steel Cookware. You may prefer using metal utensils. These may scratch the cooking surface, but will in no way impair the performance of your Cuisinart® Stainless Steel Cookware. You may use a hand mixer with metal beaters, which can scratch the interior surface but will not impair the cookware’s performance or its durability.
REMOVE STAINS
TO REMOVE STAINS
Calcium in your water may leave a multicolored stain. This is from a harmless
deposit and can be removed with a little warm vinegar. Certain foods such as
pasta or oatmeal may leave a light residue or cloudy appearance. This can be
easily removed with any non-abrasive cleaning products.
TO REMOVE STUBBORN RESIDUE
When food is burned in the pan, a stubborn black residue may remain. If
soaking does not loosen it, add water to a depth of one inch in the pan, then
add a tablespoon of dishwasher detergent (a non-lemon product). Bring to a
boil, reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Let cool in the pan, then drain
and rinse. Loosen the residue with a sponge or plastic spatula. Repeat if
necessary.
TO REMOVE BURNER STAINS
Stains on the outside bottom (not sides) of pans can be removed with an oven
cleaner. Follow the manufacturer’s directions and spray or brush the cleaner
on only the outside bottom of the pan. If the directions call for using the
cleaner in a warm oven, heat the pan before applying the cleaner. Rinse
thoroughly after cleaning. CAUTION: Detergent fumes can be irritating. Carry
out this procedure under a hood with an exhaust fan or in a well-ventilated
room.
COOKING
COOKING OVER A GAS BURNER
When cooking over a gas burner, make certain the flame touches only the pan
bottom. If the flame comes up the sides of the pan, energy is wasted and the
sides of the pan may become permanently discolored.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Cuisinart® Stainless Steel Cookware has exceptionally
high thermoconductivity, and even a low setting on some gas burners will
overheat or even burn foods such as thinly sliced onions. An inexpensive gas
“flame-tamer” placed between the burner and the bottom of the pot solves this
problem. Flame tamers are readily available at most hardware stores.
COOKING ON A GLASS STOVETOP
To avoid scratching a glass cooktop, do not slide cookware on the glass
surface. Please consult your glass cooktop manual for information and
recommendations on use.
COOKING TEMPERATURE IN OVEN
Cuisinart® Stainless Steel Cookware can be used in the oven without damage.
Naturally, the handle as well as the pan will become hot. Use potholders to
prevent burns. The cookware can be used in the oven at any baking temperature
up to 350°F and can go from burner to table when placed on a heat-resistant
trivet.
TO BREAK A VACUUM SEAL
The uniquely designed rims and covers form a perfect fit to reduce the
evaporation of liquids. If you leave the cover on when turning the heat down
or off, a partial vacuum may form that will seal the lid to the pan. To break
the seal, turn on the heat for a few moments and the cover will come off
easily. If you don’t want the lid to seal to the pan, remove the cover or set
it slightly ajar before turning off the heat.
CONVENIENT STORAGE
A cookware rack or pegboard for your Cuisinart® Stainless Steel Cookware
provides convenient, safe storage. Stacking and crowding in cabinets or
drawers may cause scratches.
CUISINART KITCHEN TOOLS
Kitchen tools are heat resistant up to 400°F and safe for all cookware
types. Hand-wash for best results.
LIFETIME WARRANTY (U.S. AND CANADA ONLY)
Your Cuisinart® Cookware is warranted to be free of defects in material and workmanship under normal home use from the date of original purchase throughout the original purchaser’s lifetime.
HASSLE-FREE REPLACEMENT WARRANTY

Cuisinart® Cookware should fail within the generous warranty period, we will
repair it or, if necessary, replace it at no cost to you. To obtain a return
shipping label, email us at www.cuisinart.com/customer-care/product-
return. Or call our
Consumer Service Center toll-free at

representative. This warranty excludes damage caused by accident, misuse or
abuse, i ncluding damage caused by overheating, and it does not apply to
scratches, stains, discoloration or other damage to external or internal
surfaces which does not impair the functional utility of the cookware. This
warranty also expressly excludes all incidental or consequential damages. Some
states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential
damages, so the foregoing limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other
rights which vary from state to state.
CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS ONLY
California law provides that for In-Warranty Service, California residents
have the option of returning a nonconforming product (a) to the store where it
was purchased or (b) to another retail store which sells Cuisinart® products
of the same type. The retail store shall then, according to its preference,
either repair the product, refer the consumer to an independent repair
facility, replace the product, or refund the purchase price less the amount
directly attributable to the consumer’s prior usage of the product. If the
above two options do not result in the appropriate relief to the consumer, the
consumer may then take the product to an independent repair facility, if
service or repair can be economically accomplished. Cuisinart, and not the
consumer, will be responsible for the reasonable cost of such service, repair,
replacement or refund for nonconforming products under warranty. California
residents may also, according to their preference, return nonconforming
products directly to Cuisinart for repair, or if necessary, replacement, by
calling our Consumer Service Center toll-free at
1-800-726-0190. To obtain a return
shipping label, email us at www.cuisinart.com/customer-care/product-
return. Cuisinart will
be responsible for the cost of the repair, replacement, and shipping and
handling for such nonconforming products under warranty.
