1 Safety

Follow these safety instructions when using the accessory.

This product complies with the regulations for products that come into contact with food.

■ The cookware is not suitable for use in the microwave. ■ The cookware was developed for domestic use only. ■ The cookware is intended for cooking. ■ Do not store food in the cookware for an extended period of time. Food with high acidity may leave unwanted discolouration on the cookware. ■ Do not change the cookware in any way. ■ Never leave the cookware unattended when cooking. ■ Never leave children unattended near hot cookware.

WARNING – Risk of fire!

Hot oil or grease ignites very quickly.

▶ Never leave hot fat or oil unattended. - Do not use any native oils with a low smoke point for frying or deep-frying. ▶ Never extinguish burning oil or fat with water. ▶ Suffocate the flame with a lid or fire blanket.

WARNING – Risk of burns!

The handles may become very hot.

▶ Always use oven gloves.

WARNING – Risk of scalding!

Hot liquid, splashes and steam may cause scalding.

▶ Handle hot liquids carefully.

WARNING – Risk of injury!

If the cookware falls, it may cause injuries.

▶ Turn the handles so that they do not protrude over the work surface.

ATTENTION!

Improper use may damage the cookware or the hob.

▶ Never heat up the cookware for a long period of time when it is empty since it could quickly overheat and become deformed.

2 Cleaning the cookware before using it for the first time

1. Remove the packaging materials and all labels.
2. Carefully check the base for scratches, dents or other damage caused by handling, transportation or sale.
3. Clean the cookware with warm soapy water and a soft sponge.
4. Dry the cookware with a cloth.
5. Mix three parts water and one part lemon juice or vinegar together to form a mixture.
6. To protect the stainless steel surface against stains and oxidation, simmer the mixture in the non-coated stainless steel cookware for 15 minutes at a low setting.
7. Leave the cookware to cool down.

3 Using cookware

ATTENTION!

Improper use may cause damage and is not covered by the manufacturer's warranty.

• To prevent scratches on the hob, lift the cookware when you move it on the glass ceramic.
• Do not stack cookware without a protective layer in between. ▶ To ensure good stability of the cookware, never overheat the pan. ▶ To avoid scratching the surface, never cut food in the pan. Do not use a blender or whisk in the pan. ▶ Always use protective material when placing hot cookware on a table or worktop.

Requirement: Use a clean pan.

1. In order to achieve the best cooking results, place the cookware on a cooking surface that is an appropriate size.
2. Preheat at level 8 or 8.5 and then select the appropriate power level. The cookware heats up very quickly. Do not use the boost function or level 9.
3. We recommend turning the food using a stainless steel spatula and removing it from the cookware.

Notes

• Rectangular pans are never completely level, however this does not affect the cooking and has the correct hob function. ■ If you overheat the pan or burn food, stainless steel may become blue or even brown and traces of oxidation may occur. However, this does not affect the cooking result or the quality of the meal. ■ A scratched surface does not influence the cooking result or the quality of the food.

4 Using cookware in the oven

You will achieve the best cleaning results with cookware that is still warm. However, be careful not to burn yourself when cleaning. If food residue sticks to the cookware, cover the base of the pan with water and leave to soak while the pan is heating up carefully at a low temperature until steam is produced. The water must not boil.

1. Clean the cookware again by hand.
2. Rinse the cookware under warm water.
3. Dry the cookware immediately with a soft cloth.

Tip

Repeat the cleaning process described above.

■ You can remove stubborn stains with a steel wool sponge and/or a stainless steel cleaner.
