HEALTHIER COOKING, EASY CLEANING

When cooking with your Cuisinart® DS Anodized Cookware, you do not need to add oil or butter to prevent foods from sticking. If you wish to enhance the flavor and appearance of foods, you need only add a minimum amount to the nonstick surface of your cookware. We do not recommend using spray oils as it may cause a buildup of residue on the cooking surface.

STOVETOP COOKING

Select a burner size that matches the diameter of the pan bottom. When cooking over a gas burner, make certain that the flame touches only the bottom of the pan. If the flame extends up the sides of the pan, energy is wasted.

ESSENTIAL PRECAUTIONS

Never use Cuisinart® DS Anodized Cookware on high heat or food will burn. The aluminum core of this cookware heats quickly and its even heat distribution prevents hot spots. The dark interior color also allows food to cook more quickly with less heat. We recommend using a low to medium setting for most cooking. To boil water, medium-high is sufficient. Never leave Cuisinart® Cookware or any pan empty over a hot burner. Doing so can ruin the pan and cause damage to the stovetop.

■ COOKING ON A GLASS STOVETOP

To avoid scratching a glass cooktop, do not slide cookware on the glass surface. Please consult your glass cooktop manual for information and recommendations on use.

Cuisinart® DS Anodized Cookware can be used in the oven up to 500°F. Using Cuisinart® Cookware in the oven will cause the handles as well as the pan to become hot. Use Cuisinart® kitchen textiles pot holders or oven mitts when removing the cookware from the oven.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Tempered glass covers are oven safe to 350°F only.

■ PROPER COOKING UTENSILS

We recommend using plastic or wooden utensils in your Cuisinart® Cookware to maintain its appearance and performance. Our Cuisinart® DS Anodized Cookware is metal utensil safe. However, refrain from cutting foods or using sharp utensils such as forks, knives, mashers or whisks that can scratch the cooking surface.

WHAT ABOUT THE DISHWASHER?

Let your Cuisinart ^® DS Anodized Cookware cool before cleaning. Cuisinart ^® DS Anodized is dishwasher safe, but remember that soil from other dishes may be abrasive. If the dishwasher is carelessly packed, other dishes or flatware may mar the surface of the cookware. Over a long period, regular dishwasher cleaning will eventually scratch any pan. We recommend using a non-lemon detergent.

■ CLEANING THE EXTERIOR

Cuisinart® DS Anodized Cookware has a smooth exterior finish, making it easier to clean and maintain. Food residue or buildup on the exterior of your cookware can easily be removed with any non-abrasive cleaning product. The exterior of Cuisinart® Cookware, like other brands, will show wear with continuous use. This condition will not in any way affect the superior cooking performance of your cookware.

CONVENIENT STORAGE

Hanging pans by their handles on a cookware rack provides convenient, safe storage for your Cuisinart® Cookware. Use care if you store your cookware in cabinets or drawers. Careless stacking and crowding may cause scratches.

CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS ONLY

California law provides that for In-Warranty Service, California residents have the option of returning a nonconforming product (a) to the store where it was purchased or (b) to another retail store which sells Cuisinart® products of the same type. The retail store shall then, according to its preference, either repair the product, refer the consumer to an independent repair facility, replace the product, or refund the purchase price less the amount directly attributable to the consumer's prior usage of the product. If the above two options do not result in the appropriate relief to the consumer, the consumer may then take the product to an independent repair facility, if service or repair can be economically accomplished. Cuisinart, and not the consumer, will be responsible for the reasonable cost of such service, repair, replacement or refund for nonconforming products under warranty.

California residents may also, according to their preference, return nonconforming products directly to Cuisinart for repair, or if necessary, replacement, by calling our Consumer Service Center toll-free at 1-800-726-0190.
