HOLLOWARE - Improper use of items can cause injuries to users or people nearby; it is therefore essential to use them only for their intended purpose. To ensure safe use, follow certain precautions that help prevent accidents and damage to people or objects. Always consider the features and materials of each item, especially avoid using those unsuitable for high temperatures (like ceramics not meant for oven use) or exposing them to heat beyond recommended levels. Ceramic and glass items are fragile—handle them carefully, avoiding impacts, drops, or placing heavy/sharp objects on them. Before each use, check for cracks, chips, or other damage that could compromise safety. Avoid sudden temperature changes, as they may cause breakage. Placing hot food into cold containers can also lead to damage. To protect coatings—especially with enamel or non-stick wares—use wooden, plastic, or silicone utensils instead of metal ones. Certain materials like ceramic or terracotta must never come into direct contact with flames or intense heat. Store items properly: don’t stack heavy objects on fragile containers, and use separators to prevent impact. When using hot food or liquids, beware of steam and always handle with oven mitts or pot holders. Always follow the usage and maintenance instructions.
