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.
• To avoid small white dots or pits from forming on the stainless steel interior surface of your cookware, bring liquids to a boil before adding salt, and then stir the ingredients well. Pitting does not interfere with cooking performance but may diminish the beauty of the stainless steel surface.
•  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 500°F.

•  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 are oven safe up to 500°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 Centerfor a replacement.

CARING FOR YOUR COOKWARE
Cleaning Cookwar_e
•  Exposure to heat, air and humidity can change the appearance of copper. This happens because the copper combines with the oxygen in the air.
•  First remove heavy residue by rinsing with cold water while pan is still hot.  If not removed, food films will cause discoloration on the cookware when it is reheated.
•  Clean with warm water and mild dishwashing soap, using a sponge, nylon pad, or dishcloth. Buff until shiny. Do not use a dishwasher, which may damage the surface. Do not use oven cleaners, steel wool, harsh detergents, or chlorine bleach. 
• Copper can be easily polished with various commercial copper cleaners. You can also use a natural mixture of one tablespoon of salt, one tablespoon of white vinegar, and one tablespoon of flour; or use one tablespoon of salt and two tablespoons of lemon juice. Rinse in hot soapy water and buff to keep copper cookware shiny.   
• Remove any spotted white film with a mild solution of water and lemon juice  or vinegar.
• Wash and dry cookware quickly to ensure a more attractive patina. Letting the exterior soak in dishwater creates a yellow and brown spotty pattern.
•  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. Do not place your copper cookware in the dishwasher, which may damage the finish. You can also wash lids in hot, soapy water; then dry immediately to avoid water spots.
