USING YOUR COOKWARE
• All KitchenAid cookware is designed
for use on gas, electric, and induction
cooktop surfaces.
• Use potholders or oven mitts when
handling hot cookware.
• Before use, wash in hot, soapy water,
rinse, and dry.
• Use low to medium heat for best
cooking. Use high heat for cooking such
as boiling, searing, stir-fry, etc.
• Use oil that cooks best with moderate
heat. Temperatures that are too high or
too low cause sticking.
• To minimize sticking when frying,
sautéing, or searing, preheat the pan for
1–2 minutes over low heat before adding
foods.
• For best results when cooking cold items
like potatoes, microwave them first for
a minute or two to keep them from
sticking.
Cooking
• For best results, use cooking
spray designated as “less-residue.”
Recommended oils for flavor include
olive oil, peanut oil, or sesame oil.
• For best results, place cookware on a
burner close in diameter to the pan in
use. If cooking with gas, do not allow
the flame to go up the sides of the pan.
• Do not leave an empty pan on a hot
burner or allow pan to boil dry. This
may damage the cookware finish.
• Cookware is oven safe up to 350°F.
• Avoid using sharp-edged and metal
utensils that may scratch or cut the
nonstick surface.
• Do not cut inside the cookware.
• Do not place cookware under the broiler.

6
• Do not use glass lids that have cracks
or scratches. If your lid is cracked or
has deep scratches, breakage can occur
spontaneously. Damage from ordinary
wear and tear such as scratching is not
covered under product’s limited warranty.
Please contact the Customer eXperience
Center to order a new lid.
• Do not place glass lids directly on top
of or directly under heating elements.
Using the Glass Lid (if included)
• Avoid extreme temperature changes
when using glass lids.
• Do not submerge a hot lid in cold water.
• If a lid vacuum occurs, do not attempt
to remove the lid. First, turn off the heat
source and move the entire pan away
from the burner. Then, slowly release
the lid.
• The stainless steel handles with matching
silicone grips are oven safe up to 350°F.
• Handle position when cooking – position
pans so that handles are not over other
hot burners and do not allow handles
to extend beyond the edge of the stove
where they can be knocked off.
Handles and Knobs
• Loose handles – periodically check
handles and knobs to be sure they are
not loose. If the handles become loose,
do not try to repair them. Please contact
the Customer eXperience Center for a
replacement.

CARING FOR YOUR COOKWARE
Cleaning Cookware
• Cookware is dishwasher durable and
the colorfast finish resists fading and
discoloring. For best results in the
dishwasher, use the manufacturer’s
recommended dishwasher detergents
and rinsing liquid.
• Remove heavy residue by rinsing with
cold water, while the cookware is still hot,
before placing in dishwasher or washing
by hand.
• Use a sponge, nylon pad, or dishcloth
when cleaning cookware; do not use oven
cleaners, steel wool, harsh detergents, or
chlorine bleach.
• To avoid staining, do not let food spill on,
or boil over onto, the exterior surface.
To remove or lessen a stain, use baking
soda with water, apply the paste to the
cookware, and scrub with a nonabrasive
sponge, nylon pad, or dishcloth. Do not
use steel wool, coarse scouring pads, or
other harsh cleaners.
• Remove any spotted white film with a
mild solution of water and lemon juice
or vinegar.
• Never use metal utensils, sharp
instruments, oven cleaners, or other
harsh abrasives that may damage or
weaken the glass.
• Glass lids may be washed in the
dishwasher. You can also wash lids in hot,
soapy water; then dry immediately to
avoid water spots.
