Tescoma Viva Instructions For Use Manual page 3

WARNING! Never heat empty cookware. When empty vessels or vessels with little
content are heated excessively, purple or brown stains may appear on the metal
surfaces. These stains do not affect correct functioning, do not represent a health
hazard or fault and cannot be claimed.
COOKWARE MAINTENANCE AND CARE
Wash the cookware thoroughly and wipe it dry before first use.
To permanently preserve perfect appearance, thoroughly wash and dry the cookware after
each use.
Clean the cookware with normal detergents; never use aggressive substances, chemicals
or sharp objects. The cookware can be cleaned using special agents for stainless steel – we
recommend TESCOMA for excellent cleaning results.
Leave excessively dirty cookware to soak in water or water with detergent.
Always wipe the cookware dry after washing.
THE COOKWARE IS DISHWASHER SAFE
In dishwashing, make sure that the stainless steel cookware does not come into contact with
other metal kitchen utensils to avoid signs of "contact corrosion" which can also be transferred
to the cookware in water from some other product. Therefore, open the door of the dish-
washer as soon as possible after the end of the wash cycle and remove the cookware
from the dishwasher. We recommend reducing or eliminating dishwashing in order
to preserve the perfect appearance of the product.
Notice: Add salt only after the water starts boiling!
Adding salt to cold water can cause a high concentration of table salt at the bottom of the
cookware, which results in the occurrence of light stains called pitting corrosion. These are
sediments, the formation of which depends on the chemical composition of the water being
used. Should white sediments or iridescent colouration appear on the inside of the cookware,
use vinegar, lemon juice or a special cleansing agent for stainless steel to clean the
spots.
