IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Please pay attention to the following instructions in order to avoid any safety risks
or damage to the product. Please read all safety instructions carefully and in full.
All instructions and guidelines must be observed without modification.
CAUTION:
The cast iron grips, lid knob and carry handle can
become extremely hot during use.
CAUTION:
Never place the Dutch Oven directly into or onto a naked
flame – always place it onto or over embers only.
CAUTION:
When opening the lid, hot steam may escape.
Never touch the hot pot, lid or carry handle without wearing suitable
heatproof oven gloves.
• Always place the Dutch Oven slowly and carefully onto the hob and never drag it
across the hob. This can cause deep scratches in the hob surface.
• When using on a barbecue/grill, follow the barbecue/grill manufacturer‘s safety
instructions.
• Do not place or use the Dutch Oven on the barbecue grill side table or side burner.
The pot plus its contents are heavy!
• Make sure that the lid knob is always tightened correctly and retighten if necessary.
• Ensure that the carry handle is inserted correctly before lifting the pot.
• If the pot carry handle is used to hang the Dutch Oven, make sure that the
maximum load of the hanging device is not exceeded.
• To avoid damaging the enamelling, use kitchen aids made of wood, plastic or
silicone only. Do not stir using pointed or sharp objects.
• Ensure that the liquids never completely evaporate from the food. This prevents the
food from burning and damaging the cookware or the heat source.
• Never leave the pot unattended and keep children and pets away from the pot when
hot.
• Always place the pot on a heatresistant base. Never place the pot directly onto a
cold base, to prevent the formation of cracks.
• Do not drop or hit the Dutch Oven, as cast iron is a brittle material which can crack
or shatter.
• Never chill the hot pot with cold water. The pot could crack or shatter!
• Never use water or liquids containing water to extinguish a fire caused by fat! Please
use a fire blanket or the lid of the cookware.
