• Consistent heat distribution prevents hot spots

Handles

• Stainless steel construction for long-lasting durability

Lid Handle

• Designed to conveniently support the glass lid on edge to save countertop space while cooking

TO ASSEMBLY THE LID

1. Locate the lid handle. The screw needed to assemble the lid handle to the lid has been screwed into the lid handle at factory.
2. Using a Phillips type or Slotted type screwdriver, unscrew the screw from the lid handle.
3. Place the lid handle and handle cover on top of the lid, so it lines up correctly with the lid’s hole.
4. Place the screw and washer beneath the lid so that it fits correctly through the hole in the lid and into the lid handle.
5. Using a Phillips-head screwdriver, tighten the screw until the lid handle is securely attached to the lid. Be careful not to overtighten it.

BEFORE FIRST USE

1. Read all instructions and important safeguards.
2. Tear up all plastic bags and dispose of them properly as they can pose a risk to children.
3. Wash the wok and glass lid in warm, soapy water using a soft sponge. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
4. Season the wok by applying a thin layer of vegetable oil to the nonstick interior, ensuring the entire area is coated.
5. Once the wok is thoroughly coated, place it ona burner for 2-3 minutes over medium heat. Then, remove the wok and let it cool.
6. Once completely cool, wipe the wok interior with a dry paper towel to remove excess oil.

TO CLEAN

• Allow the wok to cool completely, then wash using warm, soapy water and a soft sponge.

• Stubborn stains can also be removed with a little soap or by boiling some water in the cookware.

• This wok is intended for cooking—not storing food.
  Therefore, always be sure to clean it immediately after use.

• Never place a hot wok in cold water. To avoid damage and distortion, always allow the wok to cool thoroughly before washing.

HEATING THE WOK

1. Adda small amount of cooking oil to the wok, and preheat on low for at least 20 seconds.
2. Increase heat to medium-high.
3. Once hot, add food to the wok and stir. To test whether the oil is hot enough for cooking, place a dry wooden spoon into the oil or fat. If  bubbles form, the wok is ready for adding food.
4. Never allow the wok to get hot enough to produce smoke or burn oil/fat.

Helpful Hints:

• We recommend cooking at a lower temperature to start, and increasing the temperature later if alex-ro[cxon
• The temperature at which fat begins to burn and visible smoke forms is the “Smoke Point” Refer to the table on page 6 for the smoke points  of various cooking oils.
  For best results, use this information to ensure that you are choosing the right oil for your cooking temperature.

Note:

• Although this wok is dishwasher safe, we recommend hand washing, as dishwasher detergent may reduce the nonstick performance with prolonged use.
• Never drag cookware across a stovetop. Residue atop the stovetop surface (such as sugar or salt) can easily cause damage. Instead, lift all cookware by the handles to move.

USING ON CERAMIC STOVETOPS

Ceramic stovetops may scratch easily, as they are subject to low manufacturer tolerances. If cookware is dragged across the surface, particles such as salt or sugar may cause damage. To prevent scratching, always lift cookware by the handles to move.
