FAQs

Is this pan safe for high-heat cooking?

It is best used on low to medium heat settings to maintain the integrity of the non-stick ceramic coating.

Can I use metal spatulas with this pan?

No, it is recommended to use silicone or wooden utensils to prevent scratching the Swiss Crystal surface.

Does it contain PFOA or PFAS?

No, the Swiss Crystal collection is manufactured without the use of harmful PFOA or PFAS chemicals.

Is the handle oven-safe?

Yes, the stainless steel handle is designed for durability and is safe for use in the oven.

How do I clean the pan if food is burnt on?

Soak the pan in warm, soapy water for 15-20 minutes, then gently wipe away residue with a soft sponge.

Is the 16 cm size suitable for a standard family meal?

The 16 cm size is designed for single-serving meals or small side dishes, rather than large family-sized portions.

Troubleshooting

Food is sticking to the pan surface

Ensure you are using a small amount of oil or butter and cooking at medium-low heat; high heat can damage the non-stick coating over time.

Pan wobbles on the induction hob

Check that the induction hob surface is clean and that the pan base is perfectly flat; if the issue persists, the base may have been warped by rapid cooling.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Eco-friendly non-stick coating free from PFAS and PFOA
  • Suitable for all cooktops, including induction
  • Dishwasher safe for effortless maintenance
  • Compact design ideal for single-serving meals
  • Oven-safe for versatile cooking applications

  • Small 16 cm size limits the volume of food it can cook

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before first use, wash the pan with warm, soapy water and a soft sponge to remove any manufacturing residue. The pan is compatible with all hob types, including induction; however, it is recommended to match the pan size to the smallest burner on your hob to prevent energy loss and overheating of the handle. To preserve the longevity of the non-stick coating, avoid using metal utensils, opting for silicone or wooden tools instead. While the pan is dishwasher safe, hand washing with mild detergent is recommended to keep the ceramic coating in peak condition for longer. Always allow the pan to cool completely before submerging it in water to prevent thermal shock.
