Frying pans – Silitec / CeraPan.
sive liquid cleaners, abrasive agents
containing sand or the abrasive sides
of sponges.
For gentle cleaning, we recommend
cleaning by hand as compact dish-
washer detergents can damage the
aluminium or cast aluminium base of
frying pans.
It is best to use kitchen gadgets
made of wood, synthetic material or
silicone when cooking food in the
frying pan. Cutting or scratch marks
do not affect the frying pan's non-
stick coating and are only visual signs
of wear and tear that do not justify a
complaint. Frying pans with plastic
handles should not be used in the
oven at temperatures exceeding 70°C.
Frying pans with metal handles are
for use in the oven. Pan holders
should be used for this, however, as
the handles can become very hot.

→ Turn down the heat in good time
and use the heat stored by the
extra-sturdy energy-saving base.
→ If your Silit cookware does wear
out after many years, disposal is
also no problem. Your local waste
management company or recycling
centre will certainly be happy to
provide you with information.
Attention:
→ Never overheat the frying pan (e.g.
without contents), as otherwise the
cookware and the cooking zone
can become damaged!
→ Also ensure that the liquid of the
cooked food never completely
evaporates.
→ Be careful with hot fat. Do not leave
hot frying pans unattended. Do not
extinguish burning fat with water.
Use a blanket or a fire extinguisher.
→ Only place the hot cookware on
heat-resistant surfaces (never on
synthetic material, etc.).
→ Never leave young children unsuper-
vised in the vicinity of hot cookware.
→ To protect yourself against hot
metal surfaces (special handles),
you must use an oven glove or pan
holder when using the frying pan
on the hob and in the oven.
→ Avoid sliding the cookware back
and forth across glass ceramic cook-
ing zones, since residue between
the base of the frying pan and the
glass ceramic hob can scratch the
cooking zone. Sliding aluminium
frying pans can cause them to
wear. The wear must therefore be
removed immediately. If the wear
is burnt on repeatedly, it will no
longer be possible to remove it.
→ Avoid knocking the chrome pour-
ing rim heavily with hard, sharp-
edged and metal kitchen utensils.
This can damage the pouring rim.
→ If the handle of your frying pan has
become loose, tighten the screw
on the handle using a standard
household screwdriver. The frying
pan must not be used again until this
has been done. Replace handles that
are cracked or do not fit correctly.
