Troubleshooting
Food is sticking to the pan.
Ensure the pan is adequately preheated and that you are using the correct amount of cooking fat. Check that you are not using metal utensils which can damage the coating. Handwash the pan thoroughly to remove any residue.
Uneven cooking or hot spots.
Verify that the hob is on a consistent heat setting and that the pan is correctly centred on the burner. Ensure the pan is clean, as debris can cause uneven heating.
