What type of utensils should I use with the Cooking Set?

To protect the long-term integrity of the triple-layer non-stick surface, we strongly recommend using only silicone, wooden, or heat-resistant plastic utensils. Avoid using metal utensils, as they can scratch and permanently damage the coating.

Setup & Operation

How do I use the Detachable Handles in the Cooking Set?

The handle uses a secure locking mechanism. Follow these steps:

To Attach:

  1. Press the release button located on top of the handle to open the locking mechanism.
  2. Align the jaw over the rim of your chosen pot, pan, or the indented slot on the grill plate.
  3. Squeeze the trigger underneath the handle fully until it locks into place with an audible 'click'.
  4. Always test the connection by gently lifting the pan before making any significant movements.

To Remove:

  1. Place the cookware securely on a flat, heat-resistant surface.
  2. Press the release button on top of the handle to open the jaw and detach it from the cookware.
Can I use the Cooking Set in an oven or over a campfire?

Yes, the die-cast aluminium cookware bodies are designed for these applications, but crucial safety rules must be followed:

  • The pans and grill plate are oven-safe up to a maximum temperature of 400°C.
  • The detachable handles and glass lids are NOT oven-safe and must be removed before placing cookware in an oven or over a direct campfire flame. Leaving them attached will cause permanent damage and create a safety hazard.
  • Always use heat-resistant gloves or oven mitts when handling hot cookware that does not have the handle attached.
How do I prepare the cooking set for its first use?

Before the first use, it is important to wash all pots, pans, and lids in warm, soapy water with a soft sponge. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely before storing.

Maintenance & Troubleshooting

How should I clean and maintain the cooking set?

To ensure a long service life and maintain the performance of the non-stick coating:

  1.  Always let the cookware cool down completely before cleaning. Submerging hot cookware in cold water can cause thermal shock and warping.
  2. Wash with a soft cloth or sponge in warm, soapy water.
  3. Never use steel wool, abrasive scouring pads, or harsh chemical cleaners, as these will damage the coating.
  4. When stacking the cookware, use the included felt pot protectors between each piece to prevent scratches.
My Cooking Set handle doesn't feel secure. What should I do?
  1. Check Alignment: Ensure the handle's jaw is properly seated on the cookware rim before squeezing the trigger.
  2. Check Locking Mechanism: Make sure you are squeezing the trigger fully until you hear the 'click' that confirms it has locked.
  3. Check for Debris: Ensure the locking mechanism and the cookware rim are free of food residue or grime that could prevent a secure connection.
