with continuous use. This condition will not in any way
affect the superior cooking performance of your cookware.

Careless stacking and crowding may cause scratches.
LimitEd LifEtimE Warranty
Your Cuisinart®Hard Anodized Non-Stick Cookware is warranted to be free of defects
in material and workmanship with normal home use from the date of original purchase
throughout the original purchaser’s lifetime. If your cookware should prove to be defective
within your lifetime, we will repair it (or, if we think it necessary, replace it) without
charge to you, except for shipping and handling. To obtain warranty service, please call
our Consumer Service Center toll-free at 1-800-726-0190. Or write to Consumer Service
Center, Cuisinart, 150 Milford Road, East Windsor, NJ 08520.
To facilitate the speed and accuracy of your return, please enclose $7.00 for shipping
and handling of the product. (California residents need only supply proof of purchase and
should call 1-800-726-0190 for shipping instructions.) Be sure to include a return address,
description of the product problem, phone number, and any other
information pertinent to the product's return. Please pay by check or money order.
NOTE: For added protection and secure handling of any Cuisinart product that is
being returned, we recommend you use a traceable, insured delivery service. Cuisinart
cannot be held responsible for in-transit damage or for packages that are not delivered
to us. Lost and/or damaged products are not covered under warranty.
California law provides that for In-Warranty Service, California residents have the option
of returning a nonconforming product either to the store where purchased or to another
retail store that sells similar Cuisinart products. The retailer then has the option to repair
or replace the product, refer to an independent repair facility, or refund the purchase price
(deducting for depreciation attributable to consumer’s use of the
product). If none of these options results in appropriate relief to the consumer, the
consumer may then take the product to an independent repair facility, provided service
is economically feasible. 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, at their preference, return nonconforming products directly
to Cuisinart for repair, or if necessary, replacement, by calling our Consumer Service
Center. Cuisinart will be responsible for the cost of repair, replacement, and shipping and
handling for such nonconforming products under warranty.
This warranty excludes damage caused by accident, misuse or abuse, including damage
caused by overheating, and it does not apply to scratches, stains, discoloration, minor
imperfections, slight color variations 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.

When cooking with your Cuisinart®Chef’s Classic
™
Non-Stick Hard 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.
■
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®Chef’s Classic
™
Non-Stick Hard 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.

Non-Stick Hard 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 pot holders or oven mitts when removing the
cookware from the oven.

propEr CooKing utEnSiLS
We recommend using plastic or wooden utensils in your
Cuisinart Cookware to maintain its appearance and
performance. However, our Chef’s Classic
™
Non-Stick Hard
Anodized line is metal-utensil safe. 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®Chef’s Classic
™
Non-Stick Hard Anodized
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 Cuisinart Cookware’s flawless finish. Do not put in
the dishwasher since harsh detergents will harm exterior finish.
