Your Cuisinart® SmartNest®Nonstick Aluminum Nesting
Cookware is warranted to be free of defects in material and
workmanship under normal home use from the date of original
purchase throughout the original purchaser’s lifetime.
HASSLE-FREE REPLACEMENT WARRANTY
Your ultimate satisfaction in Cuisinart®products is our goal,
so if your Cuisinart® Cookware product should fail within the

This warranty excludes damage caused by accident, misuse or
abuse, including damage caused by overheating, and it does
not apply to scratches, stains, discoloration or other damage to
external or internal surfaces that does not impair the functional
utility of the cookware. This warranty also expressly excludes
all incidental or consequential damages. Some states do not
allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential
damages, so the foregoing limitation or exclusion may not
apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and
you may also have other rights, which vary from state to state.
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 that 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.
To obtain a return shipping label, email us at www.cuisinart.
com/customer-care/product-assistance/product-inquiry.
Cuisinart will be responsible for the cost of the repair,
replacement, and shipping and handling for such
nonconforming products under warranty.

water and wipe dry with a soft dish towel.
HEALTHIER COOKING, EASY CLEANING
When cooking with your Cuisinart® SmartNest®Nonstick
Aluminum Nesting 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 add only a
minimum amount to the non-stick surface of your cookware.
Use of cooking spray is not recommended, as it may cause
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 and
flames may permanently discolor the cookware exterior.
Please use caution or care when using this cookware
on smooth-top cooking surfaces to avoid scratching or
damage.
ESSENTIAL PRECAUTIONS
Never use Cuisinart® SmartNest®Nonstick Aluminum Nesting
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 sucient. Never leave Cuisinart® Cookware
or any pan empty over a hot burner. Doing so can ruin the
pan and cause damage to the stovetop.
OVEN COOKING TEMPERATURE
Cuisinart® Cookware can be used in the oven up to 350˚F
for short amounts of time, not to exceed 20 minutes. Using
Cuisinart® Cookware in the oven will cause the handles as
well as the pan to become hot. Use potholders or oven
mitts when removing the cookware from the oven. DO NOT
place Cuisinart® SmartNest®Nonstick Aluminum Nesting
Cookware under the broiler.
PROPER COOKING UTENSILS
We recommend using plastic or wooden utensils in your
Cuisinart® Cookware to maintain its appearance and
performance. Refrain from cutting foods or using sharp
utensils such as forks, knives, mashers or whisks that can
scratch the cooking surface.
EASY MAINTENANCE
Let your Cuisinart® SmartNest®Nonstick Aluminum Nesting
Cookware cool before cleaning. The reinforced nonstick
system and the smooth exterior ensure easy cleaning.
Cookware should be washed by hand with hot, sudsy
water and a sponge or soft dishcloth. Do not use steel
wool or other metal or abrasive pads that can scratch
your cookware. After washing, rinse thoroughly and
dry immediately to maintain your Cuisinart® Cookware’s
finish. You may place the Cuisinart® SmartNest®Nonstick
Aluminum Nesting Cookware in the dishwasher; be sure to
use a non-lemon detergent.
CONVENIENT STORAGE
Cuisinart® SmartNest®Nonstick Aluminum Nesting
Cookware provides convenient, safe storage by allowing you
to neatly stack your cookware (see front cover image).
