Congratulations on your purchase of Cuisinart® Greenchef® Hard
Anodized Non-Stick Cookware! Designed from the inside out
for today' s eco-conscious chef, Greenchef® Cookware combines
uncompromising, superior cooking performance with an eco-
friendly sensibility. We guarantee you a lifetime of healthy cooking
with your Cuisinart® Greenchef® Cookware.
Before UsinG for the first time
Remove all labels. Wash cookware by hand in warm water with a mild dish
soap. Rinse thoroughly in warm water and wipe dry with a soft dish towel.
heaLthy cookinG, easy cLeaninG
When cooking with your Cuisinart® Greenchef® Cookware, you do not need
to add oil or butter to prevent foods from sticking. If you wish to enhance the
flavor and appearance of foods, you need add only a minimum amount to the
nonstick surface of your cookware.
enerGy-efficient cookinG
Select a burner size that matches the diameter of the bottom of the pan. When
cooking over a gas burner, make certain that the flame touches only the bottom
of the pan. If the flame extends up the sides of the pan, energy is wasted.
essentiaL PrecaUtions
Never use Cuisinart® Greenchef® Cookware on high heat or food will burn.
The aluminum core of this cookware heats quickly and its even heat distri-
bution prevents hot spots. We recommend using a low to medium setting for
most cooking. To boil water, medium-high is sufficient. Never leave Cuisinart®
Cookware or any pan empty over a hot burner. Doing so can ruin the pan and
void the warranty, and cause damage to the stovetop.
oVen cookinG temPeratUre
Cuisinart® Greenchef® Cookware can be used in the oven up to 500°F.
Cookware is broiler safe. Using Cuisinart® Cookware in the oven will cause the
handles as well as the pan to become hot. Use oven mitts when removing the
cookware from the oven.
ProPer cookinG UtensiLs
We recommend using plastic or wooden utensils in your Cuisinart®
Greenchef® Cookware to maintain its appearance and performance.
Refrain from cutting foods or using sharp utensils such as forks, knives,
mashers or whisks that can scratch the cooking surface. Slight surface
marks and abrasions are normal and will not affect the performance of the
Cuisinart Ceramica™ coating.

easy maintenance
Let your Cuisinart® Greenchef® Cookware cool before cleaning.
Cookware should be washed by hand with hot sudsy water and a sponge,
or soft dishcloth. Do not use steel wool or other metal or abrasive pads
that can scratch your cookware. After washing, rinse thoroughly and
dry immediately.
NOTE: Do not put Greenchef® Cookware in the dishwasher, since harsh
detergents will harm it.
cLeaninG the exterior
Cuisinart® Greenchef® Cookware has a smooth exterior finish, making it easier
to clean and maintain. Food residue or buildup on the exterior of your cook-
ware can easily be removed with hot soapy water and a scrub pad. The exterior
of Cuisinart® Cookware, like other brands, will show wear with continuous
use. This condition will not in any way affect the superior cooking performance
of your cookware.
conVenient storaGe
Hanging pans by their handles on a Cuisinart® cookware rack provides convenient,
safe storage for your Cuisinart® Greenchef® Cookware. Use care if you store
your cookware in cabinets or drawers. Careless stacking and crowding may
cause scratches or chipping of the ceramic interior surface.
dUraBLe cookWare for
a Lifetime of Great meaLs
With a little bit of care, you'll enjoy a great performance from your Cuisinart®
Greenchef® cookware for years to come. A careful hand washing after each use
is usually all it takes. But if pans become crusty or heavily greased, a couple of
hours soaking in hot sudsy water and a light scrub will have them looking like
new. Seasoning your pans twice a year helps to maintain optimal performance,
and it' s easy! Just add a half-tablespoon of vegetable oil and spread it around
the entire interior, right up to the rim. Then place the pan in a preheated 300°F
oven for an hour. Carefully remove the pan, allow it to cool completely, and
wipe off any excess oil with a paper towel. Be gentle with your cookware!
