Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Before first use, wash the pan with warm, soapy water.
- Dry the pan thoroughly before use.
- Season the pan lightly with oil before the first use and after cleaning to maintain the non-stick surface.
Compatibility
The Le Creuset Toughened Non-Stick Deep Frying Pan is compatible with:
- Gas, electric, ceramic, and induction cooktops.
- Ovens up to 260°C.
- Grills (provided the pan is at least 5cm from the heat source).
Care
- Cleaning: Allow the pan to cool before cleaning. It's dishwasher safe, but hand washing is recommended to extend the non-stick coating's life.
- Use: Avoid using metal utensils aggressively. Nylon, silicone, or wooden utensils are recommended to prevent scratching.
- Storage: Store the pan carefully to avoid scratches. Consider using pan protectors if stacking.
- Heat: Avoid high heat for extended periods, as it can damage the non-stick coating. Use medium heat for most cooking tasks.
