BEFORE YOU BAKE Wash the pan in warm, sudsy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. The performance of your Cuisinart
®
Chef’s
Classic
™
Non-Stick Bakeware depends on a thoroughly
clean baking surface. See cleaning instructions below. BAKING WITH CUISINART
®
CHEF’S CLASSIC
™
NON-STICK BAKEWARE Prepping the pan: Prepare the pan according to recipe instructions. Grease and fl our if directed. Although the surface of Chef’s Classic
™
Non-Stick Bakeware is designed
for easy release, following the recipe instructions always gives the best results. You may use spray oils with Chef’s Classic
™
Non-Stick Bakeware. The special nonstick formula
used in our bakeware makes spray oils easy to remove. (However, DO NOT use spray oils to cook in any Cuisinart
®
cookware items. The nature and content of spray oils cause them to leave a gummy residue on cookware that is very diffi cult to remove completely and as a result, food may actually stick, even on nonstick cookware!) Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to the temperature recommended in the recipe. Keep in mind, however, that no two ovens are calibrated exactly the same. We recommend that you watch foods closely the fi rst few times you bake. This will help you to determine how and when to adjust either the baking temperature or the baking time. Bakeware is oven safe to 450ºF. Do not use under the broiler. Utensils: Use only nylon, wood, or coated utensils with Chef’s Classic
™
Non-Stick Bakeware. This will help prevent
scratches and maintain the appearance and performance of your bakeware. Using metal utensils on any nonstick surface will damage the surface over time. Always remove food from the pan before slicing or cutting. The surface of Chef’s Classic
™
Non-Stick Bakeware makes it easy to remove foods
cleanly and completely.
Cleaning: We recommend that you hand-wash your bakeware thoroughly, inside and out, after every use. However, Cuisinart
®
Chef’s Classic
™
Non-Stick Bakeware can
be cleaned in the dishwasher if necessary. Before you put the pan in water, allow it to cool. Putting a hot pan in cooler water can warp the pan and can create sudden steaming and hot water spattering, which can cause burns. Use a sponge or dishcloth with hot, sudsy water to remove food from the pan’s baking surface and exterior surfaces. For burned-on or stubborn spots caused by high baking temperatures, use Soft Scrub
®
and a soft nylon or nylon-
covered cleaning pad. (Keeping the exterior free of built-up grease and food stains helps to maintain the pan’s appearance and performance.) DO NOT IMMERSE OR SOAK your insulated bakeware. Insulated bakeware is designed to “breathe” and is not watertight. Soaking can result in water collecting in the airspace between the pan layers. (The nonstick fi nish releases foods so easily, you should never really need to soak any Chef’s Classic
™
Non-Stick Bakeware.) To dry out an insulated pan in which water has collected, put the pan upside down in a 250ºF oven for 30 minutes. DO NOT USE abrasive cleansers or
cleaning pads, oven cleaners or other caustic solutions, baking soda, or dishwasher detergent. These cleaners will damage the surface and void the Lifetime Warranty. Storage: DO NOT stack or nest bakeware items without a protective layer. This can result in scratches on your nonstick surfaces. Like any bakeware, Chef’s Classic
™
Non-Stick
Bakeware will show wear after continued use. This will not affect the bakeware’s performance.

CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS ONLY
California residents need only supply proof of purchase and should call 1-800- 726-0190 for shipping instructions. California law provides that for In-Warranty Service, California residents have the option of returning a nonconforming product (a) to the store where it was purchased or (b) to another retail store that sells Cuisinart products of the same type. The retail store shall then, according to its preference, either repair the product, refer the consumer to an independent repair facility, replace the product, or refund the purchase price less the amount directly attributable to the consumer’s prior usage of the product. If the above two options do not result in the appropriate relief to the consumer, the consumer may then take the product to an independent repair facility if service or repair can be economically accomplished. Cuisinart, and not the consumer, will be responsible for the reasonable cost of such service, repair, replacement or refund for nonconforming products under warranty. California residents may also, according to their preference, return nonconforming products directly to Cuisinart for repair, or if necessary, replacement, by calling our Consumer Service Center toll-free at 1-800-726- 0190. Cuisinart will be responsible for the cost of the repair, replacement, and shipping and handling for such nonconforming products under warranty.
