Ecolution Easy Clean Use & Care
Thank you for choosing Ecolution cookware. Please carefully review
the following use, care and safety instructions, which contain
important information for the use and safe enjoyment of your new
cookware.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The handles are designed to “stay-cool” during use; however, they
will eventually get hot during an extended cooking session. Use of
potholders is always recommended. Keep handles from extending
over the front edge of the cooktop where they can be snagged by
clothing or small hands. Be sure to position handles away from
other burners to keep them from getting hot. REMEMBER: Put
safety first! DO NOT LEAVE AN EMPTY POT ON A HOT BURNER
OR ALLOW LIQUIDS TO BOIL DRY. Besides wasting energy, it may
impair the pan’s performance, discolor or damage it. DO NOT
STORE FOOD IN A PAN AFTER COOKING, ALWAYS TRANSFER IT
TO ANOTHER CONTAINER. Stovetop cookware is not designed for
oven use. Do not use in microwave, on charcoal or gas grill, or over
open fire.
When using cookware on ceramic or glass topped cooking
surfaces, avoid dragging the cookware across the surface, as this
can cause damage to the cooking surface.
BEFORE USING
Before using your new cookware for the first time, remove all
packaging, wash your pan in warm, soapy water, rinse and dry.
For best results, the non-stick surface should be “conditioned” by
wiping the INTERIOR of the pan with a light coating of cooking oil.
All non-stick surfaces benefit from periodic “conditioning”,
especially after repeated automatic dishwasher cleaning.
FOR THE BEST FOOD RELEASE
Always start with a clean pan. Wash carefully and be sure you’ve
removed all traces of cooking oil and food before you store your
pan. Remove food from the refrigerator 10 minutes before you
intend to cook. Remember to preheat your pan. When cooking do
not add salt to your pan until the liquid is at boiling point. Ecolution
non-stick cookware is designed for cooking without butter or oil.
Butter or oil can be used over low heat. Do not use non-stick sprays.
UTENSILS
Only use nylon or wooden utensils for Ecolution non-stick cookware. You should NEVER cut or chop in the pan with a metal
utensil. Slight surface marks and abrasions are NORMAL and will
not affect the performance of the non-stick coating. Metal will cut
into the non-stick and should be avoided.
COOKING ON THE STOVETOP
Best results are obtained by preheating your cookware for 2 to 3
minutes on low heat. Cookware over heat should never be left
unattended nor empty for an extended time. Ideal cooking
temperature is approx. 300°F and this is achieved in only a few
minutes at low heat. Continuous high heat may discolor and
damage your cookware. Select the right size burner to fit the
bottom of the pan and adjust gas flames so they do not extend up
the sides of the pan. Minor scratches will not harm the non-stick
performance or affect food cooking in the pan. The handles of your
cookware are constructed to minimize heat transfer. Touch lightly
to be sure the handles have not become hot. Use oven mitts or
potholders if necessary.
CLEANING
Immediately after cooking, remove the pan from heat and let it cool
on a heat-resistant surface. DO NOT POUR WATER INTO A HOT
PAN. This can cause grease to splatter and can cause the bottom of
the pan to warp. Always wash pan thoroughly with soap and water
after each use. Brief cleaning with a dishcloth may not remove all
food or grease particles, which may settle into the non-stick finish. If
not removed, they may burn when the pan is reheated, causing
stains and reducing the non-stick quality. To remove stubborn
spots, use a non-abrasive plastic mesh pad. Use only products
which clearly state they are safe for non-stick surfaces. Do not use
steel wool, coarse scouring pads or powders.
Your cookware is dishwasher safe and may be washed in an
automatic dishwasher. A spotted white film (minerals from water,
buildup of detergents from the automatic dishwasher) may form on
the non-stick surface. This film can be removed by rubbing the
non-stick or anodized surface with a sponge dipped in lemon juice
or vinegar. Then wash, rinse, dry and recondition the non-stick
surface with cooking oil. Dishwasher detergents are very hard on
finishes. While your pans may be cleaned in a dishwasher, to
preserve the long lasting beauty of the pan, hand washing is
recommended.
