Elevate Everyday Cooking
Non-Stick
Agility Series
At OXO, we look at everyday objects and activities and
see ways to make things simpler, easier, more thought-
fully designed–better. We applied this same approach
to creating our Agility Series Ceramic Non-Stick cook-
ware. This collection features a PFAS, PFOA, lead and
cadmium free ceramic non-stick coating for effortless
food release and superior performance. The non-stick
coating works with our quick-heating aluminum bodies
and induction base to elevate everyday cooking,
no matter what’s on the menu.

WARNINGS
Read all safety information carefully and thoroughly
before using this product!
•DO NOT allow children near the stove while cooking.
•To avoid injury, always use caution when handling hot Cookware.
•NEVER leave Cookware unattended while in use and make sure the handles
DO NOT extend over the edge of the stove.
•DO NOT allow handles to extend over a hot burner, otherwise the handles might
become hot.
•OXO Cookware handles are constructed to minimize heat transfer
•Lids and handles may become hot during prolonged cooking. Use caution
when removing lids or lifting with handles. Touch lightly to be sure the handles
have not become too hot to handle comfortably and safely. Use oven mitts or
potholders if necessary.
•OXO Non-Stick Cookware is oven safe up to 600°F/315°C.
•Interchangeable lids are oven safe up to 425°F/220°C.
•DO NOT use on the grill.
•DO NOT use in the microwave.
•Always use oven mitts when removing Cookware from a hot oven.
•DO NOT plunge a hot lid into water, as the thermal shock can cause the lid
to shatter.

Before First Use
•Remove all packaging materials and labels. Please recycle properly.
•Wash in warm soapy water; rinse and dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
Heat Sources
•Safe for use on all stovetops, including induction.
Induction Stovetop Troubleshooting:
If a pan is not recognized by an induction stovetop, try the following:
•Use an appropriately sized burner. For induction cookware to work,
the bottom of the pot or pan must come into connect with the outer edge
of the burner. If the burner used is larger than the Cookware, it may not
be heat properly.
•Try a smaller burner. If a burner matching the base of the cookware is
not available, select a smaller burner.
•Go to the edge. Try aligning the Cookware on the outermost points of
the burner to promote contact between the base and the induction coil.
•Consult the instructions and maintenance manual for the
induction stovetop. Check which diameter pot or pan is suitable for
which burner.
Recommendations to prevent damaging Cookware
•NEVER leave empty Cookware on a hot burner. Doing so can permanently
damage your OXO Cookware and stovetop.
•DO NOT allow the Cookware to boil dry.
•DO NOT put hot Cookware under cold water. Allow the Cookware to air
cool completely first.
USAGE GUIDE

Recommendations for cooking, frying and conserving energy
•Cook on a burner that is similar in base diameter to the Cookware you
have selected.
•When cooking on a gas stove, adjust the flame so it does not flare up the sides
of the Cookware.
•Low to medium heat settings are recommended for best results. Lower heat
settings conserve energy, minimize carbonization of food and oils, and prevent
the Cookware from becoming too hot which can damage Non-Stick coatings.
•When cooking on a gas stove, Cookware heats up very quickly: be especially
careful not to use high heat.
•Use of a lid when cooking considerably reduces energy consumption.
Recommendations for best results
•Always start with clean Cookware. Wash carefully with a soft cloth or sponge
and be sure that you have removed all traces of cooking oil and food before you
store your OXO Cookware.
•Remove food from the refrigerator 10 minutes before you intend to cook or fry.
•Remember to pre-heat Cookware and allow the oil or butter to briefly heat before
adding food to the Cookware.
•Our Ceramic Non-Stick coating is PFAS-free and provides years of effortless food
release using less oil. Over time, the Non-Stick surface may develop slight surface
marks, discolorations or abrasions. These are normal and will NOT affect the
performance of the Cookware. Prolonged exposure of the Non-Stick interior to
high heat will cause it to burn away, negatively affecting its release performance.
•To maintain the performance of the Non-Stick coating, we recommend you
occasionally wipe a thin layer of cooking oil over the interior Non-Stick surface
before cooking.

5
Cooking oils and fats
•Remember, some oils and fats burn at lower temperatures. Use oils and fats
that have a high smoke point. If cooking with oil, add room temperature oil to
preheated Cookware.
•Allow the oil or butter to heat up in the cookware before adding food.
•DO NOT rush the preheating process by using high heat.
•Because of the excellent heat conductivity of your OXO Cookware, food and oil
can carbonize very rapidly. Always cook on low to medium heat and only use
high heat for boiling liquids. Use medium-high heat for searing, sautéing, stir-fry-
ing and reducing liquids. Use low heat to warm foods, simmer or for preparing
delicate sauces.
•DO NOT use any type of oil sprays, including aerosols, mist and pump sprays.
These sprays can cause residue build-up that is difficult to remove from all types
of Cookware.
•Always distribute the oil evenly onto the surface of the Cookware.
•Use the ‘butter test’ to determine whether your OXO Cookware is hot enough.
Simply wipe a dab of butter on the bottom of the Cookware. If it bubbles briskly
without burning, your OXO Cookware is perfectly preheated.
Utensils
•Though your OXO Cookware can stand up to metal utensils, we recommend
using plastic, silicone or wooden utensils to preserve the pan’s cooking surface.
OXO offers a complete line of utensils that are safe for use with Non-Stick Cookware.
Visit www.oxo.com for more information.
•DO NOT hit your spatula or utensil on the edge, rim or surface of your OXO Cookware.
•DO NOT cut food while it is in the Cookware.
•DO NOT use sharp instruments or appliances such as electric mixers to cut, chop,
release or whip foods in any Non-Stick Cookware.

CARE AND CLEANING
•Allow Cookware to cool and clean thoroughly after every use.
•OXO Cookware is dishwasher safe. Use automatic dishwashing detergent
without bleach or citrus additives. Non-Stick coatings can be broken down in
the dishwasher due to the fact that dishwashing detergents have a high alkalinity
level and may also contain chlorine bleach and phosphates. To preserve your
OXO Cookware, it is recommended to wash it in warm soapy water, rinse,
and dry with a soft towel.
•DO NOT use steel wool or nylon scrubbing pads.
•DO NOT use oven cleaner or any cleaner that is abrasive or which contains
chlorine bleach.
•DO NOT gouge the Non-Stick coating.
•ALWAYS ensure the Cookware is clean before storing.
•When using halogen and ceramic stovetops, ensure that your stovetop and
Cookware are free from debris so as not to scratch the stovetop’s surface.
Storing Cookware Properly
Storing pans along with other metal implements can cause scratches or chipping
in the surface of the Non-Stick coating and the drip-free edges. Always nest
your OXO Cookware carefully, and DO NOT allow other metal Cookware covers
with thin, sharp edges to sit inside your OXO Cookware.
