Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Before first use, wash all pans and lids in warm, soapy water with a soft cloth or sponge. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Compatibility: This set is suitable for all hob types, including induction, radiant ring, gas, and solid hot plates. Ensure the pan base is clean and makes full contact with the hob surface for optimal performance, especially on induction hobs.
Care:
- Washing: Hand wash with warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge or cloth. Avoid using steel wool, abrasive cleaners, or harsh scouring pads, as these can scratch the stainless steel surface.
- Drying: Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth immediately after washing to prevent water spots and maintain the finish.
- Sticking: To minimize food sticking, preheat the pan gently before adding oil or food. Ensure adequate cooking oil or fat is used.
- Discoloration: If discoloration occurs on the interior (often a rainbow effect), this is normal for stainless steel and can be removed by gently cleaning with a mixture of water and white vinegar, followed by thorough rinsing and drying.
- Handles: The handles are designed to stay cool but may become warm during prolonged high-heat cooking. Use oven mitts if necessary.
