GUARANTEE CONDITIONS AND ENVIRONMENT
Guarantee conditions
–
DUROTHERM cookware is guaranteed for ten years against manufacturing faults
and material defi ciencies. This guarantee does not cover exchangeable parts such
as the heat-retaining base, fi ttings, etc.
–
IMPORTANT:
Any ringing sound you may hear from your DUROTHERM does not
indicate a manufacturing fault or material defi ciency. It is due to superfl uous weld
beads inside the double walls which may have become detached from the seams
of the aluminium heat-conducting base during production. The quality and correct
operation of your DUROTHERM pan is in no way affected thereby, and respective
guarantee claims are therefore inapplicable.
Environmental protection and disposal
We attach great importance to the considerate handling of all resources. Swiss made
also means environmentally compatible production. Cookware, accessories and pack-
aging should be taken to environmentally friendly recycling that complies with the regu-
lations that apply in the country and region concerned. In Switzerland, wornout Kuhn
Rikon cookware can be sent directly to the Kuhn Rikon Service Centre (please ensure
suffi cient postage). The products will then be recycled. The cardboard packaging is
made from recycled raw materials, and the printing uses lead-free inks. Please dispose
of the packaging in the used-cardboard collection.
Tips for saving power
How to cook in an energy-saving way:
–
Use KUHN RIKON cookware with the Superthermic sandwich base for the optimum
transfer of energy – available in your DUROTHERM cookware.
–
The diameter of the hotplate and the base size of the cookware should be the
same. The correct hotplate diameter for your pot is marked in the base logo.
–
Cook with the lid in place as often as possible.
–
Turn off the supply of heat before the cooking process is fi nished and make use
of the residual heat.
–
Make full use of the potential of Soft Cooking (see the DUROTHERM Soft Cooking
brochure) and thereby save up to 60% of energy.
