BEFORE YOU BAKE
Wash the pan in warm, sudsy water. Rinse and dry
thoroughly. The performance of your Cuisinart

Chef’s
Classic

Non-Stick Bakeware depends on a thoroughly
clean baking surface. See cleaning instructions below.
BAKING WITH CUISINART
®
CHEF’S CLASSIC
™
NON-STICK BAKEWARE
Prepping the pan: Prepare the pan according to recipe
instructions. Grease and flour if directed. Although the
surface of Chef’s Classic
™
Non-Stick Bakeware is designed
for easy release, following the recipe instructions always
gives the best results. You may use spray oils with Chef’s
Classic
™
Non-Stick Bakeware. The special nonstick formula
used in our bakeware makes spray oils easy to remove.
(However, DO NOT use spray oils to cook in any Cuisinart
®
cookware items. The nature and content of spray oils cause
them to leave a gummy residue on cookware that is
very difficult to remove completely and as a result, food
may actually stick, even on nonstick cookware!)
Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to the temperature
recommended in the recipe. Keep in mind, however,
that no two ovens are calibrated exactly the same. We
recommend that you watch foods closely the first few times
you bake. This will help you to determine how and when
to adjust either the baking temperature or the baking time.
Bakeware is oven safe to 450ºF.
Do not use under the broiler.
Utensils: Use only nylon, wood, or coated utensils with
Chef’s Classic
™
Non-Stick Bakeware. This will help prevent
scratches and maintain the appearance and performance of
your bakeware. Using metal utensils on any nonstick surface
will damage the surface over time. Always remove food
from the pan before slicing or cutting. The surface of Chef’s
Classic
™
Non-Stick Bakeware makes it easy to remove foods
cleanly and completely.
Cleaning: We recommend that you hand-wash your
bakeware thoroughly, inside and out, after every use.
However, Cuisinart
®
Chef’s Classic
™
Non-Stick Bakeware can
be cleaned in the dishwasher if necessary. Before you put
the pan in water, allow it to cool. Putting a hot pan in cooler
water can warp the pan and can create sudden steaming
and hot water spattering, which can cause burns. Use a
sponge or dishcloth with hot, sudsy water to remove food
from the pan’s baking surface and exterior surfaces.
For burned-on or stubborn spots caused by high baking
temperatures, use Soft Scrub
®
and a soft nylon or nylon-
covered cleaning pad. (Keeping the exterior free of
built-up grease and food stains helps to maintain the pan’s
appearance and performance.) DO NOT IMMERSE OR
SOAK your insulated bakeware. Insulated bakeware is
designed to “breathe” and is not watertight. Soaking can
result in water collecting in the airspace between the pan
layers. (The nonstick finish releases foods so easily, you
should never really need to soak any Chef’s Classic
™
Non-Stick Bakeware.) To dry out an insulated pan in which
water has collected, put the pan upside down in a 250ºF
oven for 30 minutes. DO NOT USE abrasive cleansers or
cleaning pads, oven cleaners or other caustic solutions,
baking soda, or dishwasher detergent. These cleaners will
damage the surface and void the Lifetime Warranty.
Storage: DO NOT stack or nest bakeware items without a
protective layer. This can result in scratches on your nonstick
surfaces. Like any bakeware, Chef’s Classic
™
Non-Stick
Bakeware will show wear after continued use. This will not
affect the bakeware’s performance.
