Wash ceramic pans in warm, soapy water before the first use. Allow ceramic pans to cool completely before washing them.

Article:
After you remove the pan from the packaging, do a thorough wash to remove all the dust and particles. Products may also come in contact with bacteria and chemicals during manufacturing and shipping, so it’s important to clean your pan to make sure it is safe for cooking. Use paper towels or a clean dish towel to thoroughly dry the pan after washing and rinsing it. Extreme temperature changes—like putting a hot pan directly into cold water—can damage the nonstick coating and may even shatter the pan. While it may be tempting to quickly wash your dishes after cooking, it’s best to wait until your ceramic pan is cool before doing so.
