Before the First Use

• First of all, remove all the packaging included with your kitchenware.
• Before using your kitchenware for the first time, wash it with warm water and liquid dish detergent, rinse, and dry with a soft cloth or kitchen roll.

Cooking Tips

• Allow your food to reach room temperature before cooking.
• Make sure to dry the base of the kitchenware before placing it on the oven hob as it may get stuck onto it, especially if you are going to use it in a ceramic, halogen, or induction hob.
• Preheat your kitchenware for a few seconds on low to medium heat and then add a little cooking oil or butter. For best performance, use cooking oil or butter suitable for baking and frying (e.g., oils with a high smoke point).
• For best cooking performance, use a low or medium temperature. High temperatures can damage your kitchenware.
• In order to avoid possible burns or other accidents, make sure you do not overfill your kitchenware with more than 2/3 of its capacity.
• During cooking, use kitchen tools made of wood or silicone. Sharp or metallic kitchen tools may cause scratches or harm the non-stick coating.
• During cooking, the kitchenware develops high temperatures. Use the heat-resistant Bakelite handle on the kitchenware or lid to carry it.

Instructions for Use

• Earth Series kitchenware, thanks to their durable construction materials, can withstand sudden changes in temperature. However, it is advisable to avoid extreme changes in temperature as it may cause heat shock and consequently damage to your kitchenware.
• Avoid dragging kitchenware on the hob when cooking as it may damage the kitchenware as well as your hob.
• Using high temperatures when the kitchenware is empty or slightly full, as well as the heat shock that could be caused, may stain the inside of the kitchenware.
• The kitchenware should not be used to store acidic, fatty, or salty foods.
• To avoid potential damage to your kitchenware, it is important not to store them stacked or crammed into cabinets or drawers.

Cleaning & Care

• Wait until your kitchenware cools down before you wash it. The contact of the hot kitchenware with cold water may cause heat shock and possible damages.
• Rub the surface of the kitchenware with the soft side of the sponge. The rough side of the sponge, cleaning steel wires, and metal sponges could injure the kitchenware, damaging the non-stick coating.
• In the same way, you can rub the handle and the outer surface of the kitchenware. In case there are any fat residues left on the outside surface, use a solution of baking soda and vinegar.
• Choose mild dishwashing detergents and avoid harsh chemicals such as oven cleaners, bleach, etc. Rinse with warm water until all food residues are removed.
• If you see stubborn stains, add a little salt to the affected area. Then, add a little water to form a paste and rub gently with the sponge.
• For the maintenance of the utensil and the non-stick coating, it is recommended to smear the inside regularly while it is dry with a little vegetable oil and a towel, wiping at the end with a dry cloth.
• Even if your kitchenware is suitable for the dishwasher, it is recommended that you wash it by hand and dry it thoroughly in order to prevent blurring.
• Always dry the kitchenware well with a towel or a cloth.
