Notes
¡ Enamel burns at very high temperatures, causing minor discol-

this.
¡ The edges of thin trays cannot be completely enamelled and may
be rough. This does not impair the corrosion protection.
¡ Food residues leave a white coating on the enamel surfaces. The
coating does not pose a health risk. The functionality of your ap-
