GreenPan OVENWARE Manual

GREENPAN™ OVENWARE CARE AND USE INSTRUCTIONS
1) Important Safeguards
Read all safety information carefully and thoroughly before using this product!
•Do not allow children near the oven while it is in use.
•To avoid injury always use caution when handling hot ovenware.
•For safety reasons, never leave hot ovenware unattended.
•Always use oven mitts or potholders when removing ovenware from a hot oven.
2) Usage Guide
Before First Use:
•Remove all packaging materials and labels (please recycle rubbish properly)
•Wash in warm soapy water; rinse and dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
Recommendations for energy saving and best baking results:
•Because GreenPan™ ovenware with the patented Thermolon™ non-stick technology conducts
heat more efficiently and rapidly, oven temperatures can be set lower during baking. The first few
times you bake, watch foods closely as they approach being “done”.
If they brown faster than expected, reduce the temperature until you get the results you want.
Recommendations for best food release:
•Always start with clean ovenware. Wash carefully and be sure that you have removed all traces
of cooking oil and food before you store your ovenware.
Cooking oil and butter:
•For baking any kind of dough, we recommend to brush a thin layer of butter on the interior surface
of the ovenware prior to its use. There is no need to dust the surface with flour. Most recipes indicate
if you need to smear butter or not.
•Fats and oils work in various temperature ranges. We recommend olive oil; it’s healthier and has a
relatively high burn point.
•Do not use oil sprays. These sprays cause residue build-up that is difficult to remove from all types
of ovenware.
Utensils:
• Metal utensils can cause scratching of any non-stick surface. Plastic, rubber, or wooden utensils
are recommended to prolong the life of the ovenware.
•Do not cut food whilst it is in the ovenware.

3) Care and Cleaning:
•Allow the pan to cool and then clean it thoroughly after each use.
•Putting hot ovenware in water can cause irreparable warping..
•Your GreenPan™ product is very easy and convenient to clean. In the case of dishwasher use,
the non-stick properties of ceramic non-stick coatings can be broken down by the hardness of the
water and the aggressive alkaline detergents commonly used in a dishwasher. To preserve your
ovenware we recommend that you simply wash it in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry with a soft
towel or kitchen paper.
•Do not use steel wool or nylon scrubbing pads. For best results, clean with a cloth or soft sponge.
•Do not use oven cleaner or any cleaner that is abrasive or which contains chlorine bleach.
Do not gouge the non-stick coating.
•If black deposits form on your non-stick coating this is likely to have resulted from prolonged
exposure of the non-stick surface to high heat during cooking with fats and oils which can break
down. This can create carbonized oil and fat films. These factors will accelerate the loss of non-
stick performance. If this happens then empty any loose food, partly fill the ovenware with warm
water and leave it to cool. After cooling the burnt food should be easily wiped away.
For tougher burns, soak in soapy water for a few hours followed by patient rubbing with a soft cloth.
Do not use any abrasive cleaners, harsh scouring pads or steel wool as this will damage the
non-stick.
•Always ensure your ovenware is clean before you store it.
•Slight surface marks and discolorations are normal. The only difference with black-coloured
coatings and Thermolon™ is that stains and other marks can show up more visibly on the grey
Thermolon™ surface.
We wish you a lot of cooking pleasure with this
GreenPan™product.
