Introduction
------------
All items in the Le Creuset stoneware range are original designs
and have been hand-crafted, making each piece unique. Due to this
uniqueness, there may be slight variations from piece to piece.
Le Creuset Stoneware is safe for use in the microwave, freezer,
refrigerator, dishwasher, oven and broiler. The maximum oven-safe
temperature is 500 degrees F / 260 degrees C.
The enameled surface is easy to clean and scratch-resistant. The
enamel is completely hygienic and will not absorb odors or
flavors. Le Creuset Stoneware is extremely strong and durable,
and resists staining, chipping and cracking. The handles, knobs
and rims have been designed for a secure, easy-to-hold grip.
Cleaning and Care
-----------------
DO NOT use any Stoneware piece on the stovetop or any other
direct heat source.
OVEN: Maximum oven-safe temperature is 500 degrees F / 260
degrees C. Use oven mitts for lifting at all times.
BROILER: When using under a broiler allow a gap of no less than 2
1/2 inches between the rim of the dish and the heat source.
MICROWAVE: Handles may become hot during prolonged microwave use,
especially if the handles are enclosed with plastic wrap. Cover
just the open top of the dish, leaving the handles exposed.
FREEZER-TO-OVEN USE: Do not place a frozen dish of food in a
preheated oven. Place the frozen dish in a cold oven and set the
temperature, allowing the dish and oven to heat together. Before
serving always check that the center of the food is completely
and uniformly hot.
CLEANING: Before the first use, wash the dish in hot, soapy
water, and rinse and dry thoroughly. For most day-to-day
cleaning, cool the dish for a few minutes before washing and
drying, or wash in the dishwasher, allowing the full cycle to
complete. Never leave a dish fully immersed in water. For removal
of stubborn residues allow the dish to cool, fill with warm,
soapy water and allow it to soak for 10 to 20 minutes. Wash in
the usual way using a plastic brush or scouring pad if necessary.
