Key features include an extra-large pouring rim for drip-free transfer, a condensate-plus metal lid to retain moisture and flavor, interior measurement markings for precise cooking, and ergonomic side handles for comfortable handling. This cookware is oven safe up to 450°F (230°C) and suitable for all stovetops, including induction.
Setup and First Use
- Unpacking: Carefully remove all packaging materials and labels from the stock pot and lid.
- Initial Cleaning: Before first use, wash the stock pot and lid thoroughly with warm soapy water. Rinse completely and dry immediately to prevent water spots.
- Seasoning (Optional): While not strictly necessary for stainless steel, some users prefer to lightly oil the interior before first use to enhance non-stick properties over time. Heat a small amount of cooking oil over low heat for a few minutes, then let it cool and wipe clean.

Operating Instructions
Stovetop Use
- Compatibility: The Fissler Original-Profi Collection stock pot is suitable for all stovetops, including gas, electric, ceramic, and induction. The CookStar base ensures even heat distribution.
- Heat Settings: Use appropriate heat settings for your cooking needs. For boiling liquids, start with high heat and reduce to low once boiling is achieved. Avoid excessively high heat for extended periods, as this can cause discoloration or food to stick.
- Pan Size: Ensure the pot's base diameter matches the size of your burner for optimal heat transfer and energy efficiency.
Oven Use
The stock pot is oven safe up to 450°F (230°C). When using in the oven, always use oven mitts or pot holders as the handles will become hot.
Lid Functionality
The condensate-plus metal lid is designed to retain moisture, ensuring that flavors and nutrients are preserved during cooking. The weight and design of the lid help create a self-basting effect.

- Removing Stains: For stubborn food residues 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.

Troubleshooting
- Discoloration: Blue or rainbow-colored stains can appear due to mineral deposits in water or overheating. These are harmless and can often be removed with a stainless steel cleaner or a solution of vinegar and water.
- Food Sticking: Ensure the pot is properly preheated before adding food. Using a small amount of oil or fat can also help prevent sticking. Avoid using metal utensils that can scratch the surface.
- White Spots: These are typically mineral deposits from water. They can be removed by boiling a solution of water and vinegar (1:1 ratio) in the pot, then washing and drying.
