FAQs
Is this saucepan dishwasher safe?
While the materials are durable, we recommend hand washing with warm, soapy water to ensure the Megastone coating lasts as long as possible.
Can I use this pan on an induction hob?
Yes, the Salter Megastone range is fully compatible with induction hobs as well as gas, electric, and ceramic stovetops.
Is the handle oven-safe?
The pan is primarily designed for stovetop use; please refer to the specific product packaging regarding oven temperature limits if applicable.
Does the pan contain PFOA?
No, the Megastone range is completely PFOA-free, making it a safer choice for daily cooking.
Can I use metal utensils with this pan?
Yes, the coating is scratch-resistant and specifically tested to be safe for use with metal kitchen utensils.
What is the benefit of the steam vent in the lid?
The steam vent allows excess pressure to escape during cooking, which helps prevent the lid from rattling and reduces the chance of boil-overs.
Troubleshooting
Food is sticking to the pan
Ensure you are using the heat indicator to reach the correct temperature before adding food, and use a small amount of oil or butter.
The heat indicator is not changing color
Ensure the pan is placed correctly over the center of the heat source and that the burner is set to at least medium heat.
Steam is escaping from under the lid
The lid is designed with a vent; ensure the vent is clear of debris to allow steam to escape safely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before using your saucepan for the first time, wash it thoroughly with warm, soapy water to remove any manufacturing residue. While the pan is compatible with all hobs, ensure the base matches the size of your induction ring for maximum energy efficiency. To maintain the life of the Megastone coating, avoid using high heat settings for extended periods, as medium heat is sufficient for most cooking tasks. Always allow the pan to cool completely before placing it in water to prevent thermal shock. While the coating is scratch-resistant, hand washing with a non-abrasive sponge is highly recommended to preserve the surface quality for as long as possible.
