Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this container truly airtight?

Yes, the combination of the 'Clip 'n' Lock' system and the rubber seal is designed to create an airtight and leak-proof closure, preserving food freshness and preventing spills.

What is the volume and dimensions of this container?

This specific model has a capacity of 2.3 liters and a height of 12cm.

Can I use this container for freezer storage?

Yes, it can be used for freezer storage. Ensure the lid is securely fastened before placing it in the freezer.

What are the colored parts on the lid?

The colored parts are the 'Clip 'n' Lock' tabs that secure the lid to the container, creating the airtight seal. They are available in blue, purple, or red.

Can I use this container for hot liquids or foods?

While microwave safe for reheating, it is not recommended for storing or transporting very hot liquids. Allow hot foods to cool before sealing and microwaving.

How do I clean the rubber seal?

The rubber seal can be gently removed for cleaning. Wash it with warm, soapy water and ensure it is completely dry before reinserting it into the lid.

What does BPA-free mean?

BPA-free means the plastic does not contain Bisphenol A, a chemical compound that can potentially leach into food. This ensures the container is safe for food storage.

Troubleshooting

Lid not sealing properly

Ensure the rubber seal is clean and correctly positioned. Check that the 'Clip 'n' Lock' tabs are fully engaged and secured.

Container has absorbed odors

Soak the container in a solution of water and baking soda or white vinegar for several hours, then wash thoroughly. Ensure food is cooled before sealing.

Plastic appears cloudy after microwave use

This can occur with prolonged high-heat exposure. Ensure the lid is vented or removed and avoid overheating food. This does not affect the safety of the container.

Difficulty opening clips

Ensure the lid is properly seated on the container. Try pressing down on the lid center while disengaging the clips. If still difficult, check for any debris around the clip mechanism.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
