Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your pot, it is recommended to hand wash it with non-abrasive sponges, though it is dishwasher safe.

While compatible with all heat sources, always ensure the magnetic base is centered on the heating element to maximize thermal efficiency and protect the handle attachments.
