Setup and First Use

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove all items from the packaging. Dispose of packaging materials responsibly.
2. Initial Cleaning: Before first use, wash all cookware items and the removable handle with warm soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely.
3. Conditioning (for non-stick surfaces): For optimal non-stick performance, lightly coat the interior of the pans with a small amount of cooking oil. Heat on low for 30 seconds, then remove from heat and wipe clean with a paper towel. This step is optional but recommended.
4. Handle Attachment: Practice attaching and detaching the Ingenio handle a few times before cooking. Ensure it clicks securely into place. The handle is designed to be robust and can support up to 10kg (internal tests).

Operating Instructions

1. Using the Removable Handle

• To attach: Align the handle with the pan's attachment points and press firmly until you hear a click, indicating it is securely locked.
• To detach: Press the release button on the handle and pull it away from the pan.
• Only attach the handle when moving the pan or stirring food. Remove it during cooking on the stovetop or when placing the pan in the oven to prevent overheating the handle.

2. Cooking on the Stovetop

• These pans are compatible with all types of hobs, including induction.
• Use medium to low heat settings. High heat can damage the non-stick coating and is generally not necessary due to the efficient heat distribution.
• The Mineralia non-stick coating provides long-lasting performance and allows for cooking with minimal fat.
• Always use wooden, silicone, or plastic utensils to protect the non-stick surface. Avoid metal utensils.

3. Oven Use

• The pans are oven-safe without the handle. Ensure the handle is detached before placing the pan in the oven.
• Always use oven mitts when handling hot pans from the oven.

4. Serving and Storage

• After cooking, the pan can be brought directly to the table for serving by attaching the handle.
• For storing leftovers, detach the handle and place the pan directly into the refrigerator.
• The stackable design allows for efficient storage, saving up to 50% more space compared to traditional cookware.

Maintenance and Care

• Cleaning: The cookware is dishwasher safe. However, hand washing with warm soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge is recommended to prolong the life of the non-stick coating.
• Handle Care: The removable handle can also be washed by hand. Ensure it is completely dry before storing.
• Avoid Abrasives: Do not use harsh scourers, abrasive cleaners, or steel wool on any part of the cookware, especially the non-stick surface.
• Storage: When stacking pans, consider using pan protectors to prevent scratching the non-stick surfaces.
