• Stay-Cool Handles: Welded 18/10 stainless steel handles remain cool during stovetop use and are designed for easy maneuverability and hygiene.

Setup and First Use

Unpacking and Initial Cleaning

1. Remove all packaging materials and labels from the saucepan and lid.
2. Wash the saucepan and lid thoroughly with warm, soapy water.
3. Rinse completely and dry immediately with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.

Cooktop Placement

Ensure the saucepan is centered on the heat source. For optimal performance on induction cooktops, the base should align with the induction zone. The flat base design ensures excellent contact with the cooktop surface.

Operating Instructions

Heat Management

Due to its superior heat conduction and retention, Demeyere Atlantis cookware often requires lower heat settings than you might typically use. Start with medium heat and adjust as needed. Overheating can lead to discoloration or food sticking.

• Preheating: Always preheat your pan before adding oil or butter. A simple water droplet test can confirm proper heating: add a few drops of water to the pan; if they dance and evaporate quickly, the pan is ready.
• Even Cooking: The 7-ply construction ensures heat is distributed evenly across the entire cooking surface, eliminating hot spots.

Maintenance and Care

Cleaning

• Dishwasher Safe: Your Demeyere Atlantis saucepan is dishwasher safe for convenience.
• Hand Washing: For best results and to maintain the pristine finish, hand washing is recommended. Use warm, soapy water and a soft sponge or cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or steel wool, which can scratch the surface.
• Removing Stubborn Stains: For food residue or discoloration, a stainless steel cleaner or a paste of baking soda and water can be used. Apply, let sit for a few minutes, then scrub gently and rinse thoroughly.
• Silvinox Surface: The patented Silvinox treatment helps maintain the beautiful silvery white matte appearance and resists fingerprints.

Storage

Store your saucepan in a dry place. If stacking, place a soft cloth or pan protector between items to prevent scratches.

Troubleshooting

• Food Sticking: Ensure the pan is properly preheated before adding food. Use adequate oil or fat. Avoid overcrowding the pan.
• Discoloration: High heat can sometimes cause a bluish or brownish tint on stainless steel. This is harmless and can often be removed with a stainless steel cleaner or a solution of vinegar and water.
• Warping: The Demeyere Atlantis saucepan is designed with a flat base stability feature to prevent warping even under high heat. If warping occurs, contact customer support.
• Induction Cooktop Not Recognizing Pan: Ensure the pan is centered on the induction zone. Verify that your cooktop is compatible with the pan's base size.
