Care & Maintenance Guide

Treated well, quality kitchen tools last for years. Follow these simple steps to keep your VELOZEST cookware, knives, and appliances performing at their best.

Knives & Cutlery

  • Hand-wash with warm water and mild soap, then dry immediately — do not leave knives soaking.
  • Avoid the dishwasher; harsh detergents and heat dull the edge and damage handles.
  • Use a wooden or plastic cutting board, never glass or stone, to protect the blade.
  • Hone regularly with a steel and sharpen a few times a year to maintain a clean edge.
  • Store in a knife block, on a magnetic strip, or with blade guards — never loose in a drawer.

Stainless Steel Cookware

  • Let pans cool before washing to avoid warping from sudden temperature changes.
  • For stuck-on food, soak in warm soapy water, then clean with a non-abrasive sponge.
  • Remove water spots and discoloration with a little white vinegar or a stainless cleaner.
  • Most stainless pieces are dishwasher-safe, but hand-washing preserves the finish longer.

Non-Stick Cookware

  • Use wooden, silicone, or nylon utensils only — metal scratches the coating.
  • Cook on low to medium heat; high heat shortens the life of the non-stick surface.
  • Wash by hand with a soft sponge and avoid abrasive scrubbers or steel wool.
  • Never use cooking sprays, which can leave a residue that builds up over time.

Cast Iron

  • Rinse with hot water and scrub with a stiff brush — avoid soap where possible.
  • Dry thoroughly right away and apply a thin layer of cooking oil to season and prevent rust.
  • If rust appears, scour it off, wash, dry, and re-season the surface.
  • Store in a dry place with a paper towel inside to absorb any moisture.

Small Appliances

  • Always unplug before cleaning and let the appliance cool completely.
  • Wipe motor bases and housings with a damp cloth — never submerge electrical parts in water.
  • Wash removable bowls, blades, and attachments by hand unless the manual marks them dishwasher-safe.
  • Dry all parts fully before reassembling and storing to prevent odors and corrosion.

Wood & Bamboo

  • Hand-wash boards and utensils and dry standing up — never soak or put in the dishwasher.
  • Condition occasionally with food-grade mineral oil to prevent cracking and drying.
  • Sanitize with a wipe of diluted vinegar after preparing raw meat or fish.
