• Never use this cookware in a microwave or on an unregulated heat source such as an outdoor grill, open fire or pizza oven.
• Never use the Dutch oven if its interior enamel has chipped.
• Use silicone, wooden or other heat-resistant tools; never use knives or other sharp metal utensils on the enamel cooking surface.
• Cool the cookware to room temperature before cleaning, and never plunge a hot Dutch oven into cold water.
• For broiler use, leave at least 2 in between the heat source and the top rim.
