COOKING, EASY CLEANING
When cooking with your Cuisinart® SmartNest® Nonstick Hard Anodized Cookware,
you do not need to add oil or butter to prevent foods from sticking. If you
wish to enhance the flavor and appearance of foods, you need only add a
minimum amount to the nonstick surface of your cookware.
STOVETOP COOKING
Select a burner size that matches the diameter of the pan bottom. When cooking
over a gas burner, make certain that the flame touches only the bottom of the
pan. If the flame extends up the sides of the pan, energy is wasted.
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.
ESSENTIAL PRECAUTIONS
Never use Cuisinart® SmartNest® Nonstick Hard Anodized Cookware on high heat
or food will burn. 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. Any material, if heated
continuously at a high enough temperature, will begin to decompose, damaging
your stovetop or cookware and/or causing personal injury. Never leave cookware
on the stovetop unattended. Do not allow cookware to boil dry. If cookware
boils dry, do not remove it from the stovetop immediately. Turn off the heat
and allow to cool naturally.
OVEN COOKING TEMPERATURE
Cuisinart® SmartNest® Nonstick Hard Anodized Cookware can be used in the oven
up to 500˚F. Glass lids are oven safe up to 350˚F. Using Cuisinart® Cookware
in the oven will cause the handles, as well as the pan, to become hot. Use
pot-holders or oven mitts when removing the cookware from the oven. Please DO
NOT place Cuisinart® Nonstick Cookware under the broiler.
PROPER COOKING UTENSILS
We recommend using plastic or wooden utensils in your Cuisinart® Cookware to
maintain its appearance and performance. However, our SmartNest® Nonstick Hard
Anodized line is metal-utensil safe. Refrain from cutting foods or using sharp
utensils such as forks, knives, mashers or whisks that can scratch the cooking
surface.
EASY MAINTENANCE
Let your Cuisinart® SmartNest® Nonstick Hard Anodized Cookware cool before
cleaning. The reinforced nonstick system and the smooth exterior ensure easy
cleaning. Cookware should be washed by hand with hot, sudsy water and a sponge
or soft dishcloth. Do not use steel wool or other metal or abrasive pads that
can scratch your cookware. After washing, rinse thoroughly and dry immediately
to maintain Cuisinart® Cookware’s flawless finish. Do not put in the
dishwasher since harsh detergents will harm the exterior finish.
CLEANING THE EXTERIOR
Cuisinart® SmartNest® Nonstick Hard Anodized Cookware has a smooth exterior
finish, making it easier to clean and maintain. Food residue or buildup on the
exterior of your cookware can easily be removed with any nonabrasive cleaning
product. The exterior of Cuisinart® Cookware, like other brands, will show
wear with continuous use. This condition will not in any way affect the
superior cooking performance of your cookware.
CONVENIENT STORAGE
SmartNest ™ Nonstick Hard Anodized Nesting Cookware provides convenient, safe
storage by allowing you to neatly stack your cookware (see front cover image).

discoloration or other damage to external or internal surfaces which does not
impair the functional utility of the cookware.

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 that 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, shipping, and handling
of such nonconforming products under warranty.
