Setup and First Use

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Retain packaging for future storage or transport if needed.
2. Initial Cleaning: Before first use, wash all pots, pans, and lids thoroughly with warm soapy water. Rinse well and dry completely. This removes any manufacturing residues.
3. Handle Attachment: To attach the removable handle, align the handle's mechanism with the pouring rim of the pot or pan. Press the release button on the handle and firmly clip it onto the rim. Ensure it locks securely into place with a click. The 360° all-round attachment ensures a stable connection.
4. Handle Detachment: To detach, press the release button and gently pull the handle away from the cookware.

Operating Instructions

Hob Compatibility

The WMF Click&Serve cookware is suitable for all standard hob types, including:

• Induction hobs
• Gas hobs
• Electric hobs
• Glass ceramic hobs

The TransTherm base construction ensures even heat distribution and long heat retention, which helps save energy and cooking time.

Using the Removable Handle

• The removable handle provides a secure grip with a load capacity of up to 10 kg.
• Attach the handle only when the cookware is on a stable surface or when transferring it.
• Always ensure the handle is securely locked before lifting or moving the cookware.
• Remove the handle before placing cookware in the oven or for compact storage.

Oven Use

All pots and pans in this set are oven-safe up to 260°C (500°F) when the removable handle is detached. The glass lids are also heat-resistant. This allows for seamless transition from stovetop cooking to oven finishing or keeping food warm.

Non-Stick Frying Pan

The 28 cm frying pan features a durable PTFE non-stick coating, ideal for low-fat, health-conscious frying. To prolong the life of the non-stick coating:

• Use only wooden, silicone, or plastic utensils. Avoid metal utensils that can scratch the surface.
• Avoid overheating an empty pan.
• Clean gently after use.

Care and Maintenance

Cleaning

• Dishwasher Safe: All components of the WMF Click&Serve set, including the removable handle and glass lids, are dishwasher safe.
• Hand Washing: For best results and to preserve the non-stick coating, hand washing with warm soapy water and a soft sponge is recommended, especially for the frying pan. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.
• Stubborn Food Residues: For burnt-on food, soak the cookware in warm soapy water before cleaning.
• Cromargan Stainless Steel: To maintain the shine of the stainless steel, use a specialized stainless steel cleaner periodically.

Storage

The removable handle design allows for space-saving stacking of the pots and pans. Ensure cookware is clean and dry before stacking to prevent water spots or damage.

Troubleshooting

The WMF Click&Serve set is designed for durability and performance. Should you encounter any issues, consider the following:

• Handle not attaching securely: Ensure the handle mechanism is clean and free of food debris. Press the release button fully and align correctly with the pouring rim until it clicks.
• Food sticking (non-stick pan): Ensure you are using appropriate cooking temperatures and a small amount of oil or fat. Avoid using metal utensils that can damage the coating.
• Uneven heating: Verify that the cookware size matches the hob burner size. The TransTherm base is designed for even heat distribution, but extreme differences in size can affect performance.
