Cleaning
1. To maintain the beauty and cooking efficiency of the Oil Core Skillet,
it is important that it be cleaned thoroughly with warm, soapy water
after each use. Food films left on the cooking surface will cause
discoloration when the Skillet is reheated.
2. Although durable, stainless steel is not indestructible. Pitting may
result if undissolved salt remains in your Skillet. Salt should be
added just before serving foods or to boiling liquids. Liquids should
be stirred immediately to completely dissolve the salt. Do not allow
seasoned foods or high-acid foods to remain in your Skillet for
long periods.
3. With the heat control removed, your Skillet can be immersed in
water or placed in an automatic dishwasher to clean. IMPORTANT:
Allow Skillet to cool before cleaning. Do not immerse hot Skillet
in water. Always remove touch pad heat control before putting
Skillet in water. Clean Skillet in hot soapy water with a sponge,
dishcloth, nylon net, or plastic pad. Do not use a metal scouring pad,
knife, or harsh scouring powder on the polished stainless steel finish.
Rinse the Skillet thoroughly with clear hot water. Dry promptly to
prevent water spots. Wipe heat control with a damp cloth, then dry.
4. Persistent overheating may cause blue or brown heat tints inside
your Skillet. Stains may also result from minerals in certain foods.
To remove both heat tints and stains, make a paste with water and
a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner. Do not use a cleaner which
contains chlorine bleach. Apply paste with a cloth or sponge, and
rub lightly in a circular motion. Wash Skillet again, rinse, then dry
promptly.
5. Remove minor scratches with a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner,
following the instructions in No. 4 above. To prevent scratches, do
not cut, scrape, or chop food with sharp-edged kitchen tools in your
Stainless Steel Skillet.
6. To remove stuck on foods, fill with warm water and let soak for
30 minutes; then clean with warm, soapy water as usual. A non-
abrasive stainless steel cleaner may also be used, following the
instructions in No. 4 above.
