Care & Use Instructions

Use

Heat evenly: Allow the pan to heat up gradually before adding food.
Low to medium heat: Stainless Steel cookware performs best on low to medium heat. High heat can cause discoloration.
Use a little oil: Stainless steel is naturally non-stick when properly seasoned. A small amount of oil is usually sufficient.
Avoid metal utensils: Using wooden, silicone, or nylon utensils will help protect the finish.
Oven-safe : Alva stainless steel cookware is oven-safe up 392 degrees.

Care

Hand wash: While dishwasher-safe, hand washing is generally recommended to preserve the finish.
Mild detergent: Use a gentle dish soap and a soft sponge or cloth.
Avoid abrasives: Steer clear of steel wool, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals.
Hot, soapy water: Soak stubborn residue in hot, soapy water before scrubbing.
Dry thoroughly: Immediately dry with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.
Prevent discoloration: Avoid high heat and overheating.
