Troubleshooting

Food sticking to the pan

Ensure the pan is adequately preheated before adding food. Use a small amount of cooking oil or fat. Verify that the ceramic coating is not scratched or damaged. Avoid using metal utensils.

Pan is not heating evenly

Check that the pan is centered on the hob burner. Ensure the hob is at the correct setting for the pan size. For induction hobs, confirm the pan is properly magnetized and suitable for induction.

Handle feels loose

Most handles are securely riveted. If a handle feels loose, check for any debris. Do not attempt to tighten rivets yourself; contact customer support if the issue persists.

Stains on the ceramic surface

Light stains can often be removed with a paste of baking soda and water, applied gently. Avoid harsh scrubbing. Ensure food is not burnt on, as this can cause discoloration.
