BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

Remove all labels. Wash cookware in warm water with a mild dish soap. Rinse thoroughly in warm water and wipe dry with a soft dish towel.

HEALTHIER COOKING, EASY CLEANING

When cooking with your Cuisinart® Preferred Pan 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 to add only a minimum, amount to the nonstick surface of your cookware.

ENERGY-EFFICIENT COOKING

Select a burner size that matches the diameter of the bottom of the pan. 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.

ESSENTIAL PRECAUTIONS

Never use Cuisinart® Preferred Pan Cookware on high heat or food will burn. The aluminum core of this cookware heats quickly and its even heat distribution prevents hotspots. 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 void the warranty, and cause damage to the stovetop.

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.

FOR USE ON INDUCTION STOVETOPS

Please consult your induction stovetop manual for information on use. Please always center the cooking vessel on the burner for optimal performance. For the best results, it is recommended to use induction at lower temperatures when cooking with the pan.

OVEN COOKING TEMPERATURE

Cuisinart® Preferred Pan Cookware can be used in the oven up to 350°F [180°C] for short amounts of time, not to exceed 20 minutes. Using Cuisinart® Cookware in the oven will cause the handles as well as the pan to become hot. Use oven mitts when removing the cookware from the oven. DO NOT place Cuisinart® Preferred Pan Cookware under the broiler.

PROPER COOKING UTENSILS

We recommend using plastic or wooden utensils in your Cuisinart® Preferred Pan Cookware to maintain its appearance and performance. Refrain from cutting foods or using sharp utensils such as forks, knives,mashers, or whisks that can scratch the cooking surface. Slight surface marks and abrasions are normal and will not affect the performance of the PurelyCeramic™ Nonstick Advanced Release System coating.

EASY MAINTENANCE

Let your Cuisinart® Preferred Pan Cookware cool before cleaning. Cookware should be washed by hand with hot, sudsy water and a soft mesh-wrapped sponge or soft dishcloth. Do not use steel wool or other metal or abrasive pads that can scratch your cookware. Do not soak cookware in water for an extended period of time as this can affect the nonstick performance. After washing, rinse thoroughly and dry immediately.

NOTE: Do not put in the dishwasher, since harsh detergents will harm the exterior and interior finish.

CUISINART® KITCHEN TOOLS

Kitchen tools are heat resistant up to 400°F [200°C] and safe for nonstick cookware. Dishwasher safe for top rack only. Hand-wash for best results.

CLEANING THE EXTERIOR

Cuisinart® Preferred Pan 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 hot, soapy water and a scrub pad. The exterior of Cuisinart® Cookware, like other brands, may show wear with continuous use. This condition will not in any way affect the superior cooking performance of your cookware.

CONVENIENT STORAGE

Hanging pans by their handles on a Cuisinart® Cookware rack provides convenient, safe storage for your Cuisinart® Cookware. Do not store cookware in direct sunlight.
