Can I use metal utensils with this pan?
It is strongly recommended to use only silicone, wood, or plastic utensils to protect the non-stick coating from scratches and maintain its longevity.
How do I maintain the non-stick properties?
Avoid overheating, use appropriate utensils, and clean gently. Hand washing with a soft sponge is the best way to preserve the coating.
Is the non-stick coating safe?

Troubleshooting
Food sticking to the surface
Ensure the pan is adequately preheated before adding food. Use a small amount of oil or butter, and avoid overcrowding the pan. Check that you are not using metal utensils that could have scratched the coating.
Uneven cooking or hot spots
Ensure the griddle pan is centered on the hob burner and that the heat is set appropriately. Heavy-duty construction means even heat distribution, so verify hob settings are not too high or unevenly applied.
Coating appears damaged
Inspect the surface for deep scratches or chipping. If damage is visible, cease using the pan to prevent coating particles from entering food. Minor cosmetic blemishes from normal use are typically not detrimental.
Pan is difficult to clean after use
Allow the pan to cool down before cleaning. Soak in warm, soapy water if food residue is stubborn. Use a non-abrasive sponge. If using the dishwasher, ensure it is loaded correctly and run a standard cycle.
