SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS

This cookware complies with the applicable safety standards, but improper use may
lead to damage and/or injury. So please read the entire operating instructions before
using your DUROTHERM cookware, and keep them.
Correct use
DUROTHERM cookware is intended for cooking and keeping food warm for serving. It
can be used on all domestic and restaurant stoves. The double-walled version of this
cookware is not intended for use in ovens, due to the insulation effected by the double
walls. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by not following the
safety instructions and warnings.
Important safety notes
– Apart from the replacement of the side grips and the lid knob, no manipulations
may be carried out on the pan or the lid, as the double-walled parts must remain
perfectly air- and watertight.
– DUROTHERM cookware is fitted with an integrated safety element under one of
the two grips. If any liquid penetrates into the hollow space, this element will pre-
vent the development of excessive steam pressure (see the Safety element point).
– No modifications may be carried out on the safety element, as the seal must be
guaranteed. In case of any suspicion of a leakage (see the Safety element point)
please contact the nearest KUHN RIKON Service Centre (Kuhn Rikon Worldwide,
see Page 63).
– Never use cookware with loose handles. If you cannot tighten loose handles or
grips, send your DUROTHERM in for repair.
– The grips can become hot, particularly when used with gas and induction hobs.
Use a pot holder where necessary. The gas flame protector Art. No. 2080/2081
also reduces the temperature of the grip.
– Observe in particular the safety instructions marked with a red triangle.
– For frying, only half fill your DUROTHERM. Never heat the oil above 180 °C. Never
put anything wet in the hot oil. Never leave unattended when frying. In case of fire,
NEVER use water for extinguishing. Use a fire blanket to extinguish the flames.
Follow the instructions on the oil bottle
– Always keep an eye on your DUROTHERM, if it is on the hob, when children are
around.
– These operating instructions apply to the entire DUROTHERM range from produc-
tion date July 2010 (07.10).
