**Frequently Asked Questions about YIV Enamel:**

**Is enamel dishwasher-safe?**
Yes, enamel is generally dishwasher-safe. However, we recommend hand washing with warm water and mild detergent to maximize its lifespan. Aggressive detergents can dull the surface over time. If using a dishwasher: choose a gentle cycle and place items so they don't knock against each other.

**Can enamel chip? What then?**
Yes, enamel can chip due to drops, impacts, or extreme temperature shocks (e.g., hot pot into cold water). This is typical for high-quality natural material made of glass on iron.
- **Chipped on the outside:** Can be used without problems.
- **Chipped on the inside:** Replacement recommended, as the non-porous hygienic surface is damaged.
Important: Chipping only occurs due to external impact or improper use after purchase.

**Is enamel suitable for induction & all stovetops?**
Yes! Enamel is suitable for all types of stovetops: induction, gas, electric, glass-ceramic, oven, grill & open fire. Caution: Handles get hot – use oven mitts!

**How do I remove discoloration (tea, coffee)?**
- **Tea/coffee stains:** Apply baking soda-water paste for 15 min., then rinse.
- **Limescale stains:** Wipe with vinegar water (1:1).
- **Stubborn stains:** Soak in warm soapy water for 30 min.

**How long does enamel last?**
A lifetime with proper care! Enamel is rust-free, colorfast, repairable, and timeless – often a heirloom passed down through generations.

**Can enamel go in the microwave?**
No! Enamel has a metal core (steel) and must not be put in the microwave.

**How do I care for enamel properly?**
- **Daily:** Warm water, mild detergent, soft cloth, dry thoroughly.
- **Avoid:** Abrasive cleaners, extreme temperature fluctuations, aggressive chemicals (bleach, chlorine).
- **Storage:** Stackable, but store dry and protect from impacts.
