COOKING
CLEANING
SAFETY
For optimal performance and most cooking needs, we
recommend energy-efficient LOW to MEDIUM heat. High
heat is only needed for boiling or reducing liquids. High
heat can cause food to scorch or burn, discolor the pan,
or damage the nonstick surface.
Chopped™ nonstick aluminum cookware is designed
to use in the oven as well as on the stovetop. Your
cookware is safe according to the following
temperature guidelines:
SILICONE STYLE HANDLES, LIDS, STRAINERS AND
KNOBS in ovens preheated up to 350°F (176°C).
Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing
cookware from the oven.
Sharp utensils can damage the interior of your nonstick
cookware. We recommend that foods be removed to a
cutting board for carving. Never cut or slice directly in
a nonstick pan.
To extend the life of your nonstick surface, we
recommended you only use wood, plastic covered
or nylon utensils to avoid scratching.
When using oil, butter, or margarine, add to a cold pan
before preheating.
For best results, cook on a burner that is close to the
diameter of the pan you have selected. When cooking
on gas, adjust flame so it does not flare up on the sides
of the pan.
Chopped™ cookware is dishwasher safe. But for best
results and to increase the life of your cookware, we
highly recommend you hand wash in hot, soapy water.
Rinse and dry immediately to prevent water spots.
DO NOT use steel wool to clean your pan. Nylon
scrubbing pads are safe to use.
DO NOT use oven cleaner or any cleaner that is harsh or
contains chlorine bleach on your pan.
For stubborn stains and stuck-on food, add equal parts
vinegar and water to the pan. Bring to a boil and then
remove from heat. Allow the pan to cool and then wash
with warm, soapy water.
BEFORE FIRST USE & SPECIAL CARE
FOR NON-STICK SURFACES
BEFORE USING AND AFTER EVERY USE: Wash in hot,
soapy water and rinse and dry thoroughly. Before each
use, check that all handles and knobs are secure.
CONDITIONING NONSTICK: After cleaning, condition
your cookware before using it for the first time. With
a paper towel or soft cloth wipe the interior with 1 tsp.
(5 ml) of vegetable oil. Your pan should be at room
temperature. To maintain the longevity of your nonstick
surface, repeat this process every 3 – 4 months or
whenever food starts sticking to the pan.
DO NOT USE AEROSOL COOKING SPRAYS: An invisible
buildup will impair the nonstick release system causing
food to stick to the pan.
NEVER leave cookware unattended on a heated burner.
Never place an empty pan on a hot burner.
NEVER place a nonstick coated pan, tempered glass lid
or plastic/silicone style handle under the broiler.
DO NOT leave an empty pan on a hot burner or allow a
pan to boil dry. It will cause warping and damage your
cookware surface, voiding the warranty.
AVOID sudden temperature changes. Never put cold
water or frozen food in a hot pan or plunge a hot pan
into cold water. Sudden changes in temperature may
cause any metal to warp, resulting in an uneven bottom.
DO NOT allow handles to extend over a hot burner. Make
sure they do not extend past the edge of the cooking
surface.
ALWAYS use potholders when removing lids, holding
side handles, and removing pans from a hot oven.
Although the long handles are designed to stay
cool-to-the-touch, using a potholder is a safe idea.
NEVER use cookware in the microwave.
DO NOT leave food in your cookware for extended
periods of time. Storing food in any type of cookware is
not recommended.
