Below are some Guidelines published by SKK

Preparation

Before using your new SKK Cookware for the first time, wash the pan in hot water, heat a little oil in the pan and allow to cool before pouring off and wiping clean with some kitchen paper.

Use

SKK cookware works best on low to medium heat. As with all other non-stick cookware, avoid overheating your SKK products as this may reduce the non-stick effect. This applies in particular when using oil for frying. SKK cookware heat up quickly and retain the heat, start with a low to medium heat.

Use any type of utensils - plastic, wooden or metal

In time the centre of the cooking surface will take on a slightly brown appearance. This is normal and no attempt should be made to remove this.

Easy Clean-up

To maintain the attractive appearance and cooking efficiency of SKK products, wash thoroughly with a brush and hot, soapy water once the pan has cooked down. Any food that has adhered to the surface due to overheating is easily removed with a nylon scouring pad. We do not recommend cleaning this product in your dishwasher as the detergents used are very aggressive and can harm the non-stick coating. SKK products are made to cook with and not to store food. They should be cleaned immediately after use.

Warranty

All cast aluminium pans carry the SKK warranty on all components. SKK will repair or replace any item found defective in material or workmanship when put to normal household use. It does not cover damage caused by accident, misuse or use for commercial purposes. Scratches from sharp instruments, discolouration or damage from overheating are not covered by this warranty. This warranty is in addition to your normal statutory legal rights.
