Troubleshooting
Food sticks to the pan.
Ensure the pan is adequately preheated on low to medium heat before adding food. Lightly oil the surface before cooking. Check that you are using non-metal utensils and that the non-stick coating has not been damaged by abrasive cleaning or utensils.
Pan is not heating evenly.
Verify that the hob is set to the correct size and that the pan is centered on the heat source. Ensure the forged aluminium base is not warped. Clean any debris from the base of the pan.
Non-stick coating appears to be degrading.
Avoid using high heat, abrasive cleaners, and metal utensils. Hand wash the pan gently. If the coating is significantly damaged, it may be time to replace the pan.
Pan wobbles on the hob.
Check that the hob surface is clean and level. Ensure the base of the pan is flat and free from debris. Minor wobbling on some induction cooktops can occur if the pan's magnetic properties are not perfectly uniform, but it should still function correctly.
