To restore your no-stick performance, mix two parts water to one part white vinegar and boil in your pan on medium heat for 5-10 minutes.
If food remains on the nonstick surface, boil a mixture of two parts water and one part white vinegar in your pan on medium heat for 5–10 minutes to dislodge food particles. Let stand until cooled, then wash with warm, soapy water, and a soft nylon brush. Rinse and dry.
In a large pot, bring 3 parts water, and 1 part white distilled vinegar to a gentle boil. Place the cookware to be cleaned into the boiling solution and let sit for 5–10 minutes, depending on the amount of your build up. Lastly, you can scrub with an abrasive pad. Viola!

Get a new pan if the coating is scratched or flaking off.
Non-stick pans don't last forever, no matter how well you take care of them!
While the non-stick surface of hard-anodized aluminum isn't dangerous, it will chip away or reduce its non-stick quality over time. These pans only last up to five years, and by year five, your omelets probably won't be sliding out of the pan with ease.
You'll need baking soda, water, and white vinegar, and a scouring pad and scraper, such as a wooden spatula. One method uses a fresh lemon, cut in half. Baking soda is your go-to for cleaning a burnt pot or pan because it has mild abrasive properties and its alkaline pH can help neutralize acidic burnt foods.
Salt, especially coarse Kosher salt, is great for alleviating scorch marks in pans and is especially great for greasy messes. Try pairing it with Dawn dish detergent and hot water, or massaging it into the burnt pan with the juicy core of a cut lemon.
In every Circulon product, food is cooked and released across the whole surface of the pan. The raised circular grooves ('hi' area) allow a fraction of the cooking surface to take the abuse of the utensils, therefore protecting the majority of the cooking surface ('low' area).
To avoid damaging your nonstick cookware, we recommend cooking with butter, margarine, peanut oil, coconut oil, or olive oil.
If the hard-anodized aluminum cookware has only been in the dishwasher once or twice, you may be able to restore the hard-anodized aluminum surface to its original condition. Use a dry, green Scotch Brite® Heavy Duty Scrub Sponge and rub it in the same direction as the grain of the dry pan.
A: Calphalon stopped manufacturing our nonstick using PFOA back in the third quarter of 2012. We have then since moved to a formula that is completely FDA approved.
Circulon pans are manufactured and inspected to ensure high quality standards. They are warranted to the original purchaser to be free from material defects in materials and workmanship under normal household use for the lifetime of the cookware.
Any high-quality washing-up liquid is usually all you need to clean your non-stick pans. Simply place your pan into a sink or bowl filled with a soapy mix of hot water and washing-up liquid, and the detergent should naturally cut through grease, lift food residues, and remove any bacteria.
Food can stick on stainless steel product if proper cooking techniques are not followed. This is especially true with delicate foods like pancakes or eggs. For excellent cooking results follow these guidelines: Allow foods to come to room temperature (10-15 minutes) before adding them to the pan.
A good rule of thumb to follow is that a warped, chipped, deeply scratched, or pan with flaky coating should be replaced. These conditions not only affect the cooking experience with these pans, but could be hazardous.
