The Cuisinart Non-Stick Cookware is designed for modern lifestyles, offering superior cooking performance and a professional aesthetic. It is engineered to provide a lifetime of healthier cooking.

Function Description:

This cookware is primarily designed for cooking food on stovetops and in ovens. Its non-stick surface facilitates cooking with minimal or no added oil or butter, promoting healthier meal preparation and easy food release. The cookware heats quickly and distributes heat evenly, preventing hot spots and ensuring consistent cooking results. The tight-fitting, tempered glass covers are designed to seal in flavors and nutrients, enhancing the quality of cooked meals. The Cuisinart Easy Grip™ riveted silicone handles provide a secure and comfortable grip, making the cookware easy and safe to handle during use.

Important Technical Specifications:

Construction: Triple-layer construction for durability and professional cooking performance.
- Layer 1 (Interior): Premium nonstick cooking surface, offering lifetime food release and easy cleaning.
- Layer 2 (Core): Aluminum core, ensuring quick heating and even temperature distribution.
- Layer 3 (Exterior): Protective metallic finish, guarding the aluminum core for lasting performance and enhancing aesthetic appeal.
Heat Resistance: Oven safe up to 350°F (177°C) for short durations, not exceeding 20 minutes.
Handle Material: Cuisinart Easy Grip™ riveted silicone handles.
Lid Material: Tight-fitting, tempered glass covers.
Compatibility: Suitable for use on smooth-top cooking surfaces (with caution to avoid scratching) and gas burners.
Kitchen Tools: Cuisinart kitchen tools are heat resistant up to 400°F (200°C) and safe for nonstick cookware.

Usage Features:

Healthier Cooking: The non-stick surface allows for cooking with minimal or no oil/butter, supporting healthier eating habits.
Even Heat Distribution: The aluminum core ensures that heat spreads uniformly across the cooking surface, eliminating hot spots and preventing food from burning in specific areas.
Stovetop Use: When using on a gas burner, it is recommended to select a burner size that matches the pan bottom to prevent flames from extending up the sides, which can waste energy and potentially discolour the cookware exterior. For smooth-top cooking surfaces, users should avoid sliding the cookware to prevent scratches and consult their glass cooktop manual for specific recommendations.
Oven Use: The cookware and glass lids can be used in the oven up to 350°F (177°C) for short periods (not exceeding 20 minutes). Users should always use potholders or oven mitts when removing hot cookware from the oven. The cookware should NOT be placed under a broiler.
Temperature Control: It is recommended to use low to medium heat settings for most cooking, as the aluminum core heats quickly and the dark interior color allows food to cook faster. Medium-high heat is sufficient for boiling water. High heat should be avoided to prevent food from burning and potential damage to the pan.
Empty Pan Precaution: Never leave Cuisinart Cookware or any pan empty over a hot burner, as this can ruin the pan and damage the stovetop.
Recommended Utensils: To preserve the non-stick surface and maintain performance, it is advised to use plastic or wooden utensils. Sharp utensils such as forks, knives, mashers, or whisks that could scratch the cooking surface should be avoided.
Storage: Hanging pans by their handles on a cookware rack is recommended for convenient and safe storage. If storing in cabinets or drawers, care should be taken to prevent stacking and crowding that could cause scratches.

Maintenance Features:

Initial Cleaning: Before first use, remove all labels. Wash the cookware and covers in warm water with a mild dishwashing soap, rinse thoroughly, and wipe dry with a soft dish towel.
Cooling Before Cleaning: Always allow the cookware to cool completely before cleaning.
Hand Washing: The reinforced nonstick system and smooth exterior make cleaning easy. Hand washing with hot, sudsy water and a sponge or soft dishcloth is recommended.
Avoid Abrasives: Do not use steel wool or other metal or abrasive pads, as these can scratch the cookware.
Dishwasher Safe: The Cuisinart Non-Stick Cookware can be placed in the dishwasher. When using a dishwasher, ensure a non-lemon detergent is used. Cuisinart kitchen tools are dishwasher safe for the top rack only; hand-washing is recommended for best results.
Cooking Spray: The use of cooking spray is not recommended, as it may cause residue buildup on the cooking surface.
Warranty: The cookware comes with a limited lifetime warranty, covering defects in material and workmanship under normal home use from the date of original purchase. For warranty service, customers can contact the Consumer Service Center. A shipping and handling fee applies for warranty returns.
