Cleaning & Care - Le Creuset Création Consejos De Uso

Handles
Cast iron handles or stainless steel knobs
will become hot during stovetop as well
as oven use. Use a dry thick cloth, or
oven mitts, for lifting these at all times.
Maintain the tightness of all handles and
knobs by checking and retightening them
regularly.
CLEANING & CARE
Always cool a hot pan for a few minutes
before washing in hot soapy water,
rinsing and drying the pan thoroughly.
Do not plunge a hot pan into cold water.
While Le Creuset's enamel is designed
to be the most durable on the market,
thermal shock may still occur, resulting
in cracking or loss of enamel.
If there are food residues, fill the pan with
warm water, leave to soak for 15-20 mins
and then wash in the usual way.
Nylon or soft abrasive pads or brushes
can be used to remove stubborn residues.
Do not use metallic pads or harsh abrasive
cleaning agents as these will damage
the enamel.
Some marks can be removed with Le
Creuset cookware cleaner available at
20
your local retailer. An occasional condi-
tioning clean with this product will also
retain the new appearance of your pans.
Never store pans when they are still
damp. Store pans in a dry cupboard or
airy space away from steam
Le Creuset enamelled cast iron
is extremely durable but it may be
damaged if accidentally dropped or knoc-
ked against a hard surface. Please note
that this is not covered by our Lifetime
Guarantee.
Dishwasher
All pans with integral cast iron, phenolic
handles or stainless steel knobs can be
washed in the dishwasher. However,
constant dishwashing may lead to some
dulling of the enamel finish. This is not
harmful and will not impair performance.
When using the dishwasher always allow
the cycle to finish before opening the
door. This will ensure the pans are dried
thoroughly.
Thank you for your purchase and we
hope you will enjoy using your Le
Creuset cast iron cookware for many
years to come!
