Troubleshooting
Food sticks to the pan
Ensure the pan is preheated appropriately before adding food. Use a small amount of cooking oil or fat. If the non-stick performance seems reduced, a thorough cleaning to remove any residue buildup might be necessary.
Pan is not heating evenly
Verify that the pan is centered on the stovetop burner and that the burner size is appropriate for the pan's diameter. Ensure the stovetop is functioning correctly.
Handle feels loose
Check if the handle's attachment point requires tightening. Contact customer support if the issue persists or if the handle appears damaged.
