Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before your first use, wash the tray in warm, soapy water and dry thoroughly. While the non-stick coating is high-quality, always use silicone or wooden tools to avoid scratching the surface. Never use metal knives or scouring pads directly on the tray. For cleaning, hand wash with a soft sponge and mild detergent; avoid the dishwasher, as the harsh chemicals in dishwasher tablets can degrade the non-stick coating over time. The tray is safe for use in ovens up to 240 °C. To store, it is recommended to place a soft cloth or paper towel between this tray and other metal bakeware to prevent scratching.
