5. Care and Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your Farberware nonstick bakeware.
Cleaning:
- Hand wash recommended for best results and to preserve the nonstick coating.
- If using a dishwasher, ensure pans are removed promptly after the cycle. Water can collect in the rolled rims, and prolonged exposure to moisture can lead to rust.
- Use warm, soapy water and a soft sponge or cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or steel wool.
- For stubborn baked-on food, soak the pan in warm, soapy water for a few minutes before cleaning.
Storage:
- Store bakeware in a dry place.
- To prevent scratching the nonstick surface, place a paper towel or soft cloth between pans when stacking them.
6. Troubleshooting
