FAQs
Is the Mepal Lunchbox Take A Break microwave safe?

Are spare parts like the divider available?

Troubleshooting
Lid feels difficult to clip shut
Ensure that the food inside is not overfilled above the rim, as this prevents the lid from seating properly.
Divider keeps falling over
Ensure the divider is firmly pushed into the side grooves before adding your food items to provide better stability.
Staining from tomato-based foods
Rinse the container immediately after use with cold water to minimize color absorption, or soak in a mixture of baking soda and water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Using the Mepal Lunchbox is straightforward. Before first use, it is recommended to wash the box, lid, and divider with warm, soapy water. To set up your meal, insert the divider into the designated slots to create sections based on your food sizes. When closing the lunchbox, align the lid and firmly press down the side clips until you hear a click, verifying they are locked. For maintenance, simply place the components in the dishwasher. Avoid using abrasive sponges or scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface of the container over time.
