HIGH TEMPERATURE
CAN COOKINA
®
BE DAMAGED BY HIGH TEMPERATURES?
Yes. A high temperature can burn food, producing stains and causing your COOKINA
®
to warp. In
addition, overheating may result in a loss of non-stick performance. Use only low to medium heat with
your COOKINA
®
at all times. A moderate temperature is sufficient for cooking. COOKINA
®
can be used
without being damaged up to a temperature of approximately 288ºC (550ºF). This is well above the
temperature needed to cook or fry, so there is no problem when your COOKINA
®
is used for normal
cooking. Only heating your COOKINA
®
to a very high temperature, with nothing on it, can cause damage.
IF COOKINA
®
IS ACCIDENTALLY OVERHEATED, ARE THERE HAZARDOUS FUMES?
Any material heated high enough will give off fumes. You should never allow your COOKINA
®
to overheat.
Fumes from overheated non-stick cookware, like your COOKINA
®
do not adversely affect humans or
household pets with the exception of birds. Since birds have particularly sensitive respiratory systems,
they are susceptible to fumes in general. At high temperatures above 288ºC (550ºF), in case of
overheating of your COOKINA
®
, the decomposition of PTFE may create gases that could be harmful
for birds.
UP TO WHAT TEMPERATURE CAN I HEAT COOKINA
®
?
You can heat COOKINA
®
without damaging it up to 288°C (550°F).
PTFE
WHAT IS YOUR COOKINA
®
MADE OF?
It’s a composite Fluoro Polymer plastic combining
two extremely high-grade compounds coated and
encapsulated around a fabric carcass, resulting in a
tough, economical, flexible cooking sheet. The basic
chemical component is PTFE.
WHAT IS PTFE?
PTFE is a chemical connection that was discovered in
1938 by Roy Plunkett of the DuPont company. PTFE was
introduced as a commercial product in 1949. In 1954,
the French engineer Marc Grégoire created the first pan
coated with PTFE. PTFE is a plastic with the lowest friction
coefficient. It is used as non-stick layer in all sorts of pans.
PTFE is particularly non-reactive and consequently is used
in all kinds of applications, from medicine to storage and
transport of reactive chemicals. PTFE is chemically inert
and non-toxic, although at a temperature of above 288ºC
(550ºF) its quality begins to deteriorate and above 350ºC
(662ºF) it will begin to evaporate. By way of comparison,
butter and other fats used to bake and roast begin to scorch
6
English
www.cookina.co
xtra
and smoke above 200ºC (392ºF). As a rule to prevent burning, meat should not be heated to more than
288ºC (550ºF). Cooking utensils placed empty on a heated cooking plate can reach temperatures of over
350ºC (662ºF). After research conducted in 1959 by the American FDA, PFTE was approved to be used in
cooking utensils. The research showed that any harm from vapours originating from the excessive heating
of an empty pan is less than that of common oils and fats. PTFE does not break down, is cumulative, and
can be found in the environment,wildlife and bloodstream of humans. In our daily life, PTFE is everywhere. In
anti-wrinkle creams and treatments, auto engine parts, camping equipment and outdoor clothing, carpets
and rugs, clothing, computer chips, curling irons, dental floss, electrical insulation, fast food containers,
furniture, beds, gardening equipment, hair dryers, house paint, kitchen utensils, light bulbs, luggage, medicine
containers, microwave popcorn bags, pet bedding, leashes and collars, prosthetic devices and reconstructive
surgery, razor blades and shaving foam, solar panel coatings, eyewear with scratch-resistant lenses, stain
repellents, surgical instruments, and umbrellas — to name a few.
IS THE PTFE RECOGNIZED AS A HARMLESS SUBSTANCE?
The competent health authorities in the USA, Canada, France, Japan and other countries have approved
the use of PTFE on cookware like your COOKINA
®
. PTFE is actually an inert substance that does not
react chemically on contact with food, water or detergents. It is widely used in the medical field. In fact,
COOKINA
®
reduces ACRYLAMIDE on food.
PFOA
WHAT IS “PFOA”?
“PFOA” means (Perfluorooctanoic Acid) and is an agent used in the manufacturing of some PTFE.
DO COOKINA
®
PRODUCTS HAVE “PFOA” IN ITS “PTFE”?
There is NO PFOA detected on any COOKINA
®
product.
SAFETY
CAN PTFE DAMAGE MY HEALTH?
No, trust in the safety of PTFE coated products is based on over 40 years of laboratory tests. What’s
more, the cooking sheets have been used worldwide without problems for many years, both in industrial
and domestic applications. PTFE is a neutral material also implemented in the human body in various
surgeries.
IS PTFE SAFE TO USE ?
This product is FDA approved and has been used in commercial applications for more than 40 years.
This type of material has been used by every fast food restaurant, bread producer and numerous other
commercial food producers since the early 1960s.

IS IT DANGEROUS TO ACCIDENTALLY EAT A PIECE OF THE NON-STICK COATING FROM MY COOKINA
®
?
The coating is designed not to flake in normal use. If COOKINA
®
is treated poorly and a particle of
coating is inadvertently swallowed, there is no danger. The particles are not toxic (PTFE is harmless to
your health). They will be passed without being absorbed, like any fibre.
ARE THERE ANY FURTHER HEALTH CONCERNS TO BE OBSERVED WHEN COOKING WITH COOKINA
®
?
NO! As long as you handle your COOKINA
®
with care:
1. Do not overheat it
2. Keep your COOKINA
®
out of the flames and below 260°C (500ºF)
WARRANTY
DOES MY COOKINA
®
LAST A LONG TIME?
If treated with care, it will last a long time. Even if it’s scratched accidentally with a metal utensil, it won’t
be damaged or flake. Scratches do affect its non-stick performance.
WHAT DOES THE COOKINA
®
WARRANTY COVER?
COOKINA
®
is guaranteed against faulty workmanship or materials. The COOKINA
®
Ring is our symbol
of quality and authenticity and can be used to store your COOKINA
®
after use. This warranty does not
include damage due to misuse and improper care. Stains, discolouration and scratches are not covered
by this warranty. For more info go to www.cookina.co or call us at 1-877-9COOKINA (266546). Or you

Always look for the “NO PFOA” mention
Perfluorooctanoic Acid (PFOA) is an agent used in the
manufacturing of some low cost and dangerous PTFE. All COOKINA
®
products are tested and do not contain PFOA. Always ask the manufacturer
to support their claim with laboratory tests. Companies that use PTFE
liquid with low cost PFOA can sell less expensively, but their products do
not meet the highest standards for health.
Thicker doesn’t mean better
Product is composed of a fiberglass sheet coated with a non-stick liquid called PTFE. Don’t
be fooled by appearances. Thickness of the product has nothing to do with product performance. It
just means the product has more fiberglass than non-stick liquid!
More PTFE liquid = Better Non-Stick Performance
You have to look for a shiny product. If you see or feel too much of the fiberglass sheet, it
means there is less non-stick liquid, and the sheet will not perform as well. Around 60% of the weight
of all COOKINA
®
products is composed of non-stick liquid, which is the most expensive component
of production.

“We do a lot of research to make sure it’s
worth the money,” said Halbert about the
gadget selection process, including looking
online to see what’s available. That’s how
they came across the original Corkcicle
wine chiller, which was mentioned in a blog.
“We were the rst in Tyler to get it,” she said.
Halbert relies on her manufacturer’s reps

“We have a lot of square footage devoted
to it,” she said of Pawleys Pantry gadget
assortment. “We’re known for our gadgets.”
Handley prides herself on carrying hard-
to-nd items among the more than 1,500
tools in her store. Like Halbert, she carries
the ChopStir, as well as the stainless steel
Kwit Cut Chopper that can be used to cut
onions and other vegetables.

INSTRUCCIONES DE USO Y MANTENIMIENTO
Antes de utilizar COOKINA
®
por primera vez, lave la hoja para cocinar con agua y jabón para quitarle el
polvo. Deje enfriar a hoja para cocinar COOKINA
®
antes de lavarla. Lave la hoja para cocinar COOKINA
®
con agua y jabón. No utilice productos abrasivos, químicos, polvos de limpieza abrasivos o estropajos.
Seque con un trapo fino o una servilleta de papel.
ALTAS TEMPERATURAS
¿LAS ALTAS TEMPERATURAS PUEDEN DAÑAR LA HOJA PARA COCINAR COOKINA
®
?
Sí. Las altas temperaturas pueden quemar los alimentos, manchar la hoja para cocinar y deformarla.
Además, el recalentamiento de una sartén puede hacer perder sus cualidades antiadherentes. Ponga
siempre las hojas para cocinar COOKINA
®
a fuego medio o bajo. Una temperatura media es suficiente
para cocinar. Las hojas para cocinar COOKINA
®
pueden utilizarse hasta una temperatura de unos 288°C
(550°F) sin sufrir daños.
SI LA HOJA PARA COCINAR SUFRE UN RECALENTAMIENTO ACCIDENTAL, ¿ESTO PROVOCARÁ HUMOS
PELIGROSOS?
Todo utensilio expuesto a altas temperaturas provoca emanaciones de humo. No deje nunca la hoja para
cocinar COOKINA
®
recalentarse. El humo que proviene de los utensilios antiadherentes como COOKINA
®
no es peligroso para los humanos ni animales domésticos excepto los pájaros. En efecto, los pájaros
tienen un sistema de respiración particularmente frágil y son sensibles al humo en general. A altas
temperaturas más de 260ºC (500ºF), si la hoja para cocinar COOKINA
®
se recalienta, la descomposición
de PTFE podría producir gases que son nocivos para los pájaros.
PTFE
¿DE QUÉ ESTÁ HECHO EL REVESTIMIENTO ANTIADHERENTE COOKINA
®
?
Está hecho de una amalgama de plástico de polímero de fluoro combinando dos compuestos de alto
nivel recubiertos y encapsulados alrededor de una carcasa de tejido que resulta en una hoja para
cocinar de cocción resistente, económica y flexible. El elemento químico de base es el PTFE.
¿QUÉ ES EL PTFE?
El PTFE es una amalgama química descubierta en 1938 por
Roy Plunkett de la compañía DuPont. El PTFE fue introducido
comercialmente en 1949. En 1954, un ingeniero francés, Marc
Grégoire creó la primera cubierta de PTFE. El PTFE es un plástico
con el coeficiente de fricción más bajo. Se utiliza como capa
antiadherente en determinadas cacerolas. Es una sustancia
particularmente no reactiva utilizada en varias aplicaciones,
desde la medicina hasta el almacenaje y transporte de productos
químicos reactivos. El PTFE es un producto inerte y no tóxico, que
puede comenzar a deteriorarse a temperaturas superiores a los
288ºC (550ºF) y que comienza a evaporarse a una temperatura
superior a los 350ºC (662ºF). A modo comparativo, la mantequilla
