period, regular dishwasher cleaning will eventually scratch
any cookware, but will not affect its safety or performance. We
recommend using a non-lemon detergent.
We recommend using plastic or wooden utensils with your
Cuisinart®Chef's ClassicTM Stainless Color Series Cookware. You
may prefer using metal utensils. These may scratch the cooking
surface, but will in no way impair the performance of your
Cuisinart®Chef's ClassicTM Stainless Color Series Cookware. You
may use a hand mixer with metal beaters which can scratch the
interior surface but will not impair the cookware’s performance
or its durability.
Calcium in your water may leave a multicolored stain. This is
from a harmless deposit and can be removed with a little warm
vinegar. Certain foods such as pasta or oatmeal may leave a light
residue or cloudy appearance. This can be easily removed with
any nonabrasive cleaning product.
When food is burned in the pan, a stubborn black residue may
remain. If soaking does not loosen it, add water to a depth of one
inch in the pan, then add a tablespoon of dishwasher detergent (a
non-lemon product). Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for
15 minutes. Let cool in the pan, then drain and rinse. Loosen the
residue with a sponge or plastic spatula. Repeat if necessary.
Stains on the outside bottom (not sides) of pans can be removed
with an oven cleaner. Follow the manufacturer’s directions and
spray or brush the cleaner on only the outside bottom of the pan.
If the directions call for using the cleaner in a warm oven, heat the
pan before applying the cleaner. Rinse thoroughly after cleaning.

use. Always center the cooking vessel for optimal performance.

the heat down or off, a partial vacuum may form which will seal
the lid to the pan. To break the seal, turn on the heat for a few
moments, and the cover will come off easily. If you don’t want the
lid to seal to the pan, remove the cover or set it slightly ajar before
turning off the heat.

Color Series Cookware provides convenient, safe storage. Stacking
