HEALTHIER COOKING, EASY CLEANING
When cooking with your Cuisinart® SmartNest™ Non-Stick
Hard Anodized Cookware, you do not need to add oil or
butter to prevent foods from sticking. If you wish to enhance
the flavor and appearance of foods, you need only add a
minimum amount to the nonstick surface of your cookware.
STOVETOP COOKING
Select a burner size that matches the diameter of the pan
bottom. When cooking over a gas burner, make certain that
the flame touches only the bottom of the pan. If the flame
extends up the sides of the pan, energy is wasted.
COOKING ON A GLASS STOVETOP
To avoid scratching a glass cooktop, do not slide cookware
on the glass surface. Please consult your glass cooktop
manual for information and recommendations on use.
ESSENTIAL PRECAUTIONS
Never use Cuisinart® SmartNest™ Non-Stick Hard Anodized
Cookware on high heat or food will burn. The aluminum core
of this cookware heats quickly and its even heat distribution
prevents hot spots. The dark interior color also allows food
to cook more quickly with less heat. We recommend using
a low to medium setting for most cooking. To boil water,
medium-high is sucient. Never leave Cuisinart® Cookware
or any pan empty over a hot burner. Doing so can ruin the
pan and cause damage to the stovetop. Any material, if
heated continuously at a high enough temperature, will
begin to decompose, damaging your stovetop or cookware
and/or causing personal injury. Never leave cookware on
the stovetop unattended. Do not allow cookware to boil
dry. If cookware boils dry, do not remove from the stovetop
immediately. Turn o the heat and allow to cool naturally.
OVEN COOKING TEMPERATURE
Cuisinart® SmartNest™ Non-Stick Hard Anodized Cookware
can be used in the oven up to 500˚F. Glass lids are oven
safe up to 350˚F. Using Cuisinart® Cookware in the oven will
cause the handles, as well as the pan, to become hot. Use
pot-holders or oven mitts when removing the cookware
from the oven. Please DO NOT place Cuisinart® Non-Stick
Cookware under the broiler.
PROPER COOKING UTENSILS
We recommend using plastic or wooden utensils in your
Cuisinart® Cookware to maintain its appearance and
performance. However, our SmartNest™ Non-Stick Hard
Anodized line is metal-utensil safe. Refrain from cutting
foods or using sharp utensils such as forks, knives, mashers
or whisks that can scratch the cooking surface.
EASY MAINTENANCE
Let your Cuisinart® SmartNest™ Non-Stick Hard Anodized
Cookware cool before cleaning. The reinforced nonstick
system and the smooth exterior ensure easy cleaning.
Cookware should be washed by hand with hot, sudsy
water and a sponge or soft dishcloth. Do not use steel
wool or other metal or abrasive pads that can scratch
your cookware. After washing, rinse thoroughly and dry
immediately to maintain Cuisinart® Cookware’s flawless
finish. Do not put in the dishwasher since harsh detergents
will harm exterior finish.
CLEANING THE EXTERIOR
Cuisinart® SmartNest™ Non-Stick Hard Anodized Cookware
has a smooth exterior finish, making it easier to clean and
maintain. Food residue or buildup on the exterior of your
cookware can easily be removed with any nonabrasive
cleaning product. The exterior of Cuisinart® Cookware,
like other brands, will show wear with continuous use. This
condition will not in any way affect the superior cooking
performance of your cookware.

™
