Limited Warranty:
This product is warranted to be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal household use for 1 year for the cookware (coating not included).
Warranty does not apply to damages resulting from accidents, abuse or misuse, including damage caused by overheating. Warranty does not apply to scratches, stains, discoloration or other damage, or anything that does not impair the functionality of the products. Damages caused by heating above the recommended temperatures or abuse will not be covered under the limited warranty.
The manufacturer's obligation shall be limited to repairing and/or replacing, any part of the product that is defective. The customer is responsible for any shipping cost incurred.
Discoloration and small surface markings may appear with use. This will not affect the
quality or performance of the pan.
What is PFOA and PTFE and how can it be harmful to me:
PFOA is a chemical that is used in the manufacturing of traditional PTFE-based non-stick cookware coatings and other products. PFOA is
a carcinogen and has been found in normal climates, and can damage the environment and risk your health. We at Hearthware want to help eliminate product content of PFOA. Our coating is made without this chemical.
PTFE is a chemical found in certain non-stick coatings. PTFE can begin to degrade at temperatures over 500ºF. With our coating, NO PTFE will be released, even if you accidently overheat your pan. In addition, the coating itself will not blister or peel. Our coating can resist higher temperatures than many of our competitors, so there is less risk of damage.
Any material containing PTFE is not recommended for use around birds. For more information go to http://www.ewg.org/node/21780.

Why Induction Cooking?
Induction cooking is the most eco-friendly and energy-efficient way to cook. Induction cooktops use up to 90% of the energy produced, which is much more energy-efficient than gas or electric cooktops. Induction heats only the diameter of the pot so very little energy is lost. Induction emits no flame, so less residual heat is produced in your kitchen. Also, the induction cooktop remains cool to the touch where the magnetic surface is not activated. Since heating and adjustments are immediate, you can save up to 50% of cooking time when compared to gas and electric cooktops.
Why is the Cast Iron Griddle ideal for Induction Cooking?
Induction cooking is based on a focused heating area. This allows the large center cooking area of the cast iron grill pan to grow extremely hot while the outer edges will become warm only due to heat distribution caused by the property of the cast iron. This means you can cook your foods in the center of the pan and keep others warm along the outer edges. Your foods will retain more moisture and flavor. Also, the combination of high temperature generated by the NuWave Precision Induction Cooktop* and the Cast Iron Griddle will allow you to sear your meats quickly to retain more of their natural juices. Plus, there is less smoke generated with this method of searing, leaving the surrounding air safer to breathe.
*Your results may vary if you use the Cast Iron Griddle with an alternative induction cooktop appliance.
Will the Cast Iron Griddle become “seasoned” like typical cast iron pots and pans? Yes.
Although the cast iron surface has been coated with a porcelain enamel shell, the process of “seasoning” the pan still applies with the exception that this pan will not rust like a non-coated cast iron will. Overtime the center area of the pan where the heat is most intense will begin to retain residual oils that will season your pan. When you first begin to use your cast iron griddle or when the sea­soned area wears off, just apply a small amount of cooking oil (vegetable, canola, olive, etc.) to begin the process.
A Family that cooks together...
Using the Cast Iron Griddle on the NuWave PrecisionTMInduction Cooktop is an easy way to get the family or a group of friends together and enjoy a fun, quick and simple home cooked meal in or out of the kitchen. Since the NuWave Precision
TM
