2. Setup and First Use

Unpacking:

Carefully remove the pan and spatula from their packaging. Inspect both items for any signs of damage. If any damage is found, do not use the product and contact customer support.

Before First Use:

1. Wash the pan and spatula thoroughly with warm soapy water.
2. Rinse completely and dry immediately with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.
3. For optimal non-stick performance, lightly condition the pan by rubbing a small amount of cooking oil over the entire non-stick surface with a paper towel. Heat the pan over low heat for 30 seconds, then let it cool and wipe off any excess oil.

3. Operating Instructions

Cooking with Your Pan:

• Heat Settings: Due to the carbon steel construction, the pan heats quickly and retains heat efficiently. Use low to medium heat for most cooking tasks. High heat is generally not necessary and can damage the non-stick coating over time.
• Oil/Butter Usage: While the pan is non-stick, a small amount of cooking oil or butter is recommended for flavor and to enhance browning.
• Utensils: Always use the provided spatula or other non-metal utensils (wood, silicone, plastic) to protect the non-stick surface. Metal utensils can scratch and damage the coating.
• Cooktop Compatibility: This pan is suitable for all cooktop types, including gas, electric, ceramic, and induction. Ensure the pan is centered on the heat source for even cooking.

Using the Spatula:

The included spatula is designed to complement your pan. Its non-abrasive material is safe for the non-stick coating, making it ideal for flipping pancakes, crepes, and other delicate foods without scratching the surface.

4. Maintenance and Care

Cleaning:

• Allow the pan to cool completely before cleaning. Submerging a hot pan in cold water can cause warping.
• Wash with warm soapy water using a soft sponge or cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or steel wool, as these can damage the non-stick coating and enamel exterior.
• The pan and spatula are dishwasher safe. However, hand washing is recommended to prolong the life of the non-stick coating and maintain the pan's appearance.
• For stubborn food residue, soak the pan in warm soapy water for a few minutes before cleaning.

Storage:

Store the pan in a dry place. If stacking pans, place a soft cloth or pan protector between them to prevent scratches to the non-stick surface.

5. Troubleshooting

• Food Sticking: Ensure the pan was properly conditioned before first use. Use a small amount of oil or butter. Avoid using high heat, which can degrade the non-stick coating.
• Uneven Cooking: Verify the pan is centered on the heat source. For induction cooktops, ensure the burner size matches the pan's diameter as closely as possible.
• Scratches on Non-Stick Surface: This is typically caused by using metal utensils. Always use the provided spatula or other non-metal utensils. Minor scratches usually do not affect performance, but deep scratches can reduce non-stick effectiveness.
• Pan Warping: This can occur if a hot pan is rapidly cooled (e.g., by running cold water over it). Always allow the pan to cool naturally before cleaning.
