Swan Retro 5 Piece Pan Set Grey - Swan

While some non-stick pans might be marketed as dishwasher safe, we highly recommend hand washing this Swan Retro pan set. Dishwasher detergents and high heat can degrade the ceramic non-stick coating and exterior finish over time, reducing the pan's lifespan.

The Bakelite soft-touch stay-cool handles are typically not oven-safe above low temperatures (e.g., 180°C/350°F for a short period), if at all. To avoid damage, it's generally best to avoid placing these pans in the oven unless explicitly stated otherwise by the manufacturer. Info needed: [Maximum oven-safe temperature for pans and handles if applicable].

To protect the ceramic ivory non-stick inner coating, always use wooden, silicone, or heat-resistant plastic utensils. Metal utensils can scratch and damage the non-stick surface, impairing its performance.

Always use a small amount of cooking oil or butter, even with non-stick, especially for first few uses. Avoid overheating the pan, and ensure the surface is clean before cooking. Do not use aerosol cooking sprays, as they can build up residue and cause sticking over time.

Info needed: [Availability of replacement parts]. For specific inquiries about replacement parts, please contact Swan customer support directly, providing your product model number.

Minor scratches generally do not affect the safety or performance of the pan significantly. However, deep scratches can compromise the non-stick properties. Continue to use appropriate utensils and care techniques to prevent further damage. If performance is severely impacted, consider replacing the pan.

Yes, this Swan Retro 5 Piece Pan Set is fully compatible with all hob types, including induction, gas, electric, and ceramic hobs.

Ensure you're using a small amount of oil or butter, even with non-stick. Avoid high heat for extended periods. Do not use metal utensils, which can damage the coating. Re-season the pan lightly if the issue persists.

While Bakelite handles are designed to stay cool, excessive heat, especially from gas flames extending up the sides of the pan, can cause them to heat up. Ensure the flame size matches the pan's base. Use oven mitts if necessary.

Check that you are using the correct lid for the corresponding saucepan size (16cm, 18cm, 20cm). Ensure the pan rim is clean and free from food debris that might prevent a tight seal. Slight movement is normal during boiling.

This can occur due to prolonged exposure to high heat, especially if food spills are burnt onto the exterior. Clean immediately after use with a soft cloth and mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Ensure your hob surface is flat and clean. Pans can warp slightly if subjected to extreme temperature changes (e.g., running cold water into a hot pan). Always allow pans to cool down gradually.
