Enameled Cast Iron Cookware can be used with these heat sources:

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Very important to size match cookware base with stovetop burner to maximize
cooking efficiency. On gas stoves, flames must always be confined to the
cookware base area and NEVER extend up around the sidewalls. Doing so
can discolor the enamel.
Certain large size cookware will be wider than stovetop burner. If cookware
is larger than stovetop burner, slowly increase heat to ensure even heat
coverage. Never place large size cookware on an already heated burner.
Intense and uneven heating may cause large size cookware to warp or crack.
This is especially important when using a large Griddle or Dutch Oven.
A gradual low-to-medium heat setting yields the best results for most cooking
tastes, including frying and searing, and use of high heat is not necessary.
Once hot, most cooking tasks can be completed with lower heat settings.
Extensive use of high heat can permanently discolor and damage the enamel
coating, and void warranty.
When using cookware on ceramic glass stovetops, always lift (do not slide)
cookware to avoid scratching the cooktop.
Be careful to position long handles away from other stovetop heat zones while
not extending beyond the front of the stove.
For oven use, always place cookware on oven racks. Do not place cookware
on oven floor, as it will increase cooking temperarure inside the oven resulting
in overheating and drying out of baked food.
UTENSILS TO USE
As with all enameled cookware, any wooden, bamboo, nylon or silicone
utensils may be used. Do not knock utensils on the top rim of any pan when
removing foods. Using metal utensils or knives may damage the cooking
surface over time and void the warranty. Metal blades of mixers and beaters
will damage the cooking surface and void the warranty.

WARRANTY
CLEANING & CARE
Immersing hot cookware in cold water can cause cracks and surface warping.
Always allow cookware to cool down before immersing in water for cleaning
with standard dishwashing liquid.
For minimal food residue, rinse cookware with hot water and wipe surface
using a damp sponge or cloth. For more thorough washing; use a nylon pad
in hot soapy water; rinse and dry thoroughly. For stubborn or sticky residues,
fill pan with warm water and soak for 15 - 20 minutes. Then wash, rinse
and dry.
Residue on exterior surfaces can be lightly scrubbed using a nylon pad.
Do not use wire scouring pads or abrasive cleaners on any enamel surface
as it will cause scratches to occur.
Be careful when stacking and storing this cookware. Exterior and interior
enamel surfaces can be chipped when bumped or knocked against other
surfaces.
COOKWARE HANDLES
Cast iron handles and stainless steel knobs will become hot during stovetop
and oven use. Use an oven mitt or heat pad for moving cookware and lids
at all times during use. Maintain the tightness of all knobs by checking and
retightening. Be careful not to overtighten as this my damage the enamel.
