Discoloration on the exterior

Compatibility: This jug is designed for hot and cold beverages. It is not intended for use on stovetops or in microwaves.
Care: Handwash only with a soft sponge and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as they can damage the finish. Do not immerse the entire jug in water.
