Here are some things to keep in mind when using a non-stick pan for the first time:
Wash before using for the first time: Wash the pan thoroughly in warm, soapy water and rinse well. This will remove any residual manufacturing chemicals or debris.
Use low to medium heat: Non-stick pans are designed to heat up quickly, so use medium-low heat when cooking to prevent overheating and damage to the non-stick coating.
Use the right utensils: When cooking with non-stick pans, use wooden, silicone or plastic utensils to avoid scratching or damaging the non-stick coating. Avoid using metal utensils or sharp objects that could scratch the surface.
Use oil or butter: Use a small amount of oil or butter to prevent food from sticking to the surface. This will also help to season the non-stick coating and improve its performance over time.
Do not overheat: Avoid overheating the pan as this may cause the non-stick coating to break down or release toxic gases.
Avoid cooking acidic foods: Avoid cooking acidic foods such as ketchup or citrus in the non-stick pan as this can damage the non-stick coating.
Clean properly: Clean the pan carefully after each use. Use a soft sponge or cloth and a mild detergent. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or wire balls as this may scratch or damage the non-stick coating.
To keep the non-stick surface of a non-stick pan in good condition and to make it last longer, here are some tips:
Use low to medium heat: Non-stick pans are designed to heat up quickly, so it's best to use a low to medium heat when cooking to prevent overheating and damage to the non-stick coating.
Use the right utensils: When cooking with non-stick pans, use wooden, silicone or plastic utensils to avoid scratching or damaging the non-stick coating. Avoid using metal utensils or sharp objects that could scratch the surface.
Avoid high heat: Avoid using high heat as this may cause the non-stick coating to break down or release toxic fumes.
Use oil or butter: Use a small amount of oil or butter to prevent food from sticking to the surface. Non-stick cooking sprays can build up on the non-stick coating and reduce its effectiveness over time.
Clean properly: Clean the pan carefully after each use. Use a soft sponge or cloth and a mild detergent. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or wire balls as this may scratch or damage the non-stick coating.
Do not stack non-stick pans: Do not stack non-stick pans on top of each other as this can scratch or damage the non-stick coating.

Non-stick cookware is available in a variety of materials, each with its own unique properties. The following are some of the most common differences between materials:
Teflon: Teflon is a popular non-stick coating that is easy to clean and does not react with acidic foods. However, it can be damaged by high heat and sharp cutlery.
Ceramic: Ceramic non-stick pans are durable and scratch resistant. They are also free from PTFE and PFOA, which are chemicals found in some non-stick coatings. However, they are more expensive than PTFE and are prone to chipping.
Hard Anodised Aluminium: Hard anodised aluminium is a durable material that can withstand high heat and is scratch resistant. It is also very light and heats up quickly. However, it is not inherently non-stick, so it usually has a non-stick coating that will wear off over time.
Stainless steel: Stainless steel non-stick pans are durable and will not react with acidic foods. They are also oven and dishwasher safe. However, they are not naturally non-stick and require oil or butter to prevent sticking.
Cast iron: Cast iron non-stick pans are heavy duty and retain heat well. If properly seasoned, they are naturally non-stick and can be used on the cooker or in the oven. However, they are heavy and require more maintenance than other materials.
