GETTING STARTED
We’re committed to helping you create a lifetime of delicious meals for family and friends. To help ensure the longevity and performance of your cookware, keep this guide handy. It will empower you with the best way to use and care for your product. Your satisfaction is our #1 goal.
IMPORTANT
- Use potholders or oven mitts when handling hot cookware.
- Never leave cookware unattended while in use.
- KitchenAid cookware is oven safe up to 160°C, glass lid included.
- To avoid damage to the cookware, do not use under the grill.
- To avoid damage, do not use in the microwave.
USING YOUR COOKWARE
Before First Use
- Remove all packaging materials and labels. Please recycle properly.
- Wash in warm soapy water; rinse and dry thoroughly with a soft cloth
Heat Sources
Safe for use on all cooking surfaces, including induction.
Innovative Induction Technology
Our non-stick cookware is equipped with an innovative induction technology, which provides quick and even heat distribution regardless of the type of cooking surface. Even when cooking on a non-induction cooktop, this cookware will provide quick and even heat distribution, which is different from traditional aluminium cookware suitable for induction.
Recommendations for use of induction equipped cookware
- Induction cooktops develop a very intense heat in a very short time. Cookware equipped with our innovative induction technology will heat up very quickly on induction cooktops.
- The diameter of the pan’s base should be equal to the size of the induction element. If the pan is too small, the element may not sense the pan and will not activate.
Using the Glass Lid
- Avoid extreme temperature changes when using glass lids.
- Do not submerge a hot lid in cold water.
- If a lid vacuum occurs, do not attempt to remove the lid. First, turn off the heat source and move the entire pan away from the burner. Then, slowly release the lid.
- Do not use glass lids that have cracks or scratches. If your lid is cracked or has deep scratches, breakage can occur spontaneously. Please contact the Customer Service to order a new lid.
- Do not place glass lids directly on top of or directly under heating elements.
Handles and Knobs
- Loose handles – periodically check handles and knobs to be sure they are not loose. If the handles become loose, do not try to repair them. Please contact Customer Service for a replacement.
- Handle position when cooking: position pans so that handles are not over other hot burners and do not allow handles to extend beyond the edge of the stove where they can be knocked off.
- Attention: Metal connection that joins the cookware handle to the body of the pan will become hot during use. Be sure to hold the cookware on the stay-cool phenolic textured portion of the handle. We recommend using dry oven mitts or cold potholders when holding or moving the cookware.
COOKING
- Cook on a burner that is similar in base diameter to the cookware you have selected.
- When cooking on a gas stove, adjust the flame so it does not flare up the sides of the cookware.
- Use of a lid when cooking considerably reduces energy consumption.
- Use your cookware at low to medium settings. High heat can damage the cookware finish – high heat settings are only suggested for boiling water.
- We recommend using oil or butter when cooking. Remember, some oils and fats burn at lower temperatures. Use oils and fats that have a high smoke point. If cooking with oil, add room temperature oil to preheated cookware.
- Do not use any type of oil sprays, including aerosols, mist and pump sprays. These sprays can cause residue build up that is difficult to remove from all types of cookware.
- Do not rush the preheating process by using high heat.
- Allow the oil/butter to heat up in the cookware before adding food.
- Never use metal utensils on any non-stick surface. Plastic, rubber or wooden utensils are recommended to protect your cookware’s non-stick finish.
- Do not cut inside the cookware.
- When using halogen, ceramic and induction hobs, ensure that your hob and cookware are free from debris so as not to scratch the hob’s surface.
- Never shuffle or drag pans across the stove top during cooking as this may cause scratching. Always lift the pan.
CARING FOR YOUR COOKWARE
Cleaning cookware
- Allow cookware to air cool, and clean thoroughly after every use.
- Do not put hot cookware under cold water. Allow the cookware to cool completely.
- This KitchenAid cookware is dishwasher safe. For best results in the dishwasher, use the manufacturer’s recommended dishwasher detergents and cycles. To extend the life of non-stick cookware, hand washing with hot, soapy water is recommended.
- Use a sponge or dishcloth when hand cleaning cookware; do not use oven cleaners, harsh detergents, chlorine bleach, steel wool or nylon scrubbing pads. Hand dry with a soft towel.
- Do not gouge the non-stick coating.
- Do not soak your cookware for long periods of time.
- Always ensure the cookware is clean before storing.
Cleaning the Glass Lid
- Never use metal utensils, sharp instruments, oven cleaners, or other harsh abrasives that may damage or weaken the glass.
- Glass lids may be washed in the dishwasher. You can also wash lids in hot, soapy water; then dry immediately to avoid water spots.
Storing cookware Properly
- Storing cookware along with other metal implements can cause scratches or chipping in the surface of the non-stick coating.
- Always nest your KitchenAid cookware carefully. The usage of pan protectors is recommended.
