NuWave™ Duralon™ 2 Ceramic Non-Stick Cookware is
compatible with common heating sources such as gas and
electric stoves, as well as induction cooktops. Induction is the
safest heating method because it transfers magnetic energy to
the cookware. Induction cooking creates even heat distribution
without wasting energy.
The NuWave™ PIC enables precise temperature control
programmable in 5°–10°F increments, allowing you to be exact
when cooking and not worry about undercooking, overcooking
or burning the food. The NuWave™ PIC ranges from a low
temperature of 100°F to maximum searing temperature of
575°F. The NuWave™ PIC, along
with your NuWave™ Duralon™ 2
Ceramic Non-Stick Cookware is
the perfect kitchen combination.
Get the most from your Duralon™2 Ceramic
Non‑Stick Cookware with this revolutionary
appliance. The NuWave™ PIC can be found in
stores or online at www.NuWaveNow.com

BENEFITS
One variety of the NuWave™ Duralon™ 2 Ceramic Non-Stick
Cookware is comprised of Hard Anodized Aluminum with
a stainless steel induction base. We start with 99.9% pure
aluminum, then completely hard anodize the cookware on
all sides, ensuring an extremely safe and durable piece of
cookware. Hard Anodized Aluminum cookware is constructed
in a manner so that the bare metal does not come in contact
with the food.
By far one of the most praised features of our cookware is
its durability. With standard non-stick aluminum cookware,
regular cooking and usage of utensils begins to break down
the non-stick coating. As the coating breaks away, food makes
contact with bare aluminum. Our Hard Anodized Aluminum
material will continue to resist abrasion and corrosion in
the unlikely event that it is exposed beneath the Duralon®2
Ceramic Coating. The surface will not peel and it can handle
high heat levels without damage to the finish.
The other variety of the NuWave™ Duralon™ 2 Ceramic Non-
Stick Cookware is comprised of premium grade stainless steel
with an impact bonded base. Stainless Steel is praised as the
most durable of cookware alloys thanks to the surface of the
cookware itself being highly resistant to scratching. It also
has the highest ability to withstand extreme heat. This nearly
nullifies the risk of warping or other heat related damage, in
addition to ensuring that your cookware will look gleaming and
beautiful as long as it is in your kitchen.
Stainless steel is ideal for induction cooking thanks to a trait it
shares with cast iron: even heating. Stainless Steel cookware is
versatile, able to be used in ovens, on gas and electric ranges in
addition to induction cooktops. Perhaps best of all is the ease
of care and cleaning that it provides. Refer to the “Cleaning &
Storage” section of the manual for simple steps to care for your
NuWave™ Duralon™ 2 Ceramic Non-Stick Cookware.

Always wash new cookware prior to initial use. To clean, apply
liquid soap to the interior and soak under warm water. Wash
lightly with a non-abrasive cloth. Harsh abrasives and heavy
duty cleaning chemicals will damage the coating, which can
inhibit functionality and also void the manufacturer’s warranty.
Rinse and dry thoroughly with paper towels or a soft cloth.
Although the Duralon® 2 Ceramic Coating is extremely durable,
it may become damaged if not stored properly. A hanging rack
is ideal, but if you choose to store your cookware in a drawer
or cabinet, it is recommended to use care when stacking with
other cookware. This will help avoid scratches, chips or dings
that may result from improper handling.
The NuWave™ Culinary Team recommends the use of high heat
rated, silicone based tools for cooking foods. Do not use metal
utensils while cooking. Never attempt to cut foods while they
are in the cookware. Any misuse of the coating will void the
warranty; refer to the “Limited Warranty.”
To prolong the life of your NuWave™ Duralon™ 2 Ceramic
Non-Stick Cookware, the maximum recommended ambient
temperature in an oven is 475ºF. The maximum safe
temperature for your glass lids is 350°F. You may sear foods
in your cookware at high heat for short periods of time, but
prolonged use at high heat may cause food to scorch, burn
or discolor the cookware and potentially diminish the life of
your cookware. For best results, allow pan to heat between
280ºF–300ºF for up to 1 minute before inserting and cooking
foods. Avoid pre-heating empty pans above 300ºF. These
guidelines may help extend the life of your cookware.
COOKING CLEANING & STORAGE
Getting Started
Utensils
Recommended Heating
Never run cold or warm water onto hot cookware or immerse the
heated cookware in cold water. After cooking, allow cookware
and lid to cool prior to cleaning. Washing cookware while heated
may shorten the life of the Duralon® 2 Ceramic Coating.
Always hand wash your Hard Anodized Aluminum NuWave™
Duralon™ 2 Ceramic Non-Stick Cookware with mild soap and
warm water, using a soft sponge or dishcloth. Avoid using any
metal or harsh abrasive materials when washing.
Your Stainless Steel NuWave™ Duralon™ 2 Ceramic Non-Stick
Cookware may be hand washed with mild soap and warm
water, using a soft sponge or dishcloth. Avoid using any metal
or harsh abrasive materials when washing. In addition to
cleaning by hand, Stainless Steel NuWave™ Duralon™ 2 Ceramic
Non-Stick Cookware may be washed in a dishwasher. Do not
let the dry cycle exceed 350°F.

Tip: If using oil, do not exceed the oil’s smoke point. The smoke
point of oil is the temperature at which it begins to break
down to glycerol and free fatty acids, producing bluish smoke.
The smoke point also signifies the beginning of flavor and
nutritional degradation.
Note: Smoke points can vary dependent upon many different
factors. Consult the following list for common oil types and
their median smoke point. Always practice caution when
cooking with oil.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
safe for all stovetops
Congratulations on your purchase of NuWave™ Duralon™ 2
Ceramic Non-Stick Cookware! Our mission is to provide products
that promote healthy living and improve the quality of your
life. You now have cookware with technologically advanced
Duralon™ 2 Ceramic Non-Stick Coating. This coating is extremely
convenient because food easily slides off. Cleanup is simple
because the cooked food easily washes clean.
Unlike other traditional cookware, cooking with NuWave™
Duralon™ 2 Ceramic Non-Stick Cookware is healthier because
unwanted fats and oils are not necessary. Ceramic coating,
in general, is stronger and more resistant to abrasions than
other non-stick materials. Other non-stick cookware may
contain chemicals such as perfluorooctanoic acid (“PFOA”)
(which has been linked to certain types of cancer) or
polytetrafluoroethylene (“PTFE”) (which may start to degrade
at temperatures over 500°F). Our NuWave™ Duralon™ 2
Ceramic Non-Stick Cookware does not contain either, and has
been developed to provide many years of satisfaction and
enjoyable cooking!
