Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These containers require no assembly. Simply ensure the glass base and the lid are clean before first use.
Compatibility:
- Oven: The glass container is safe for use in ovens up to 400°C (752°F). Important: The lid must be removed before placing the container in the oven.
- Microwave: Safe for microwave use. The lid should be loosened or removed for microwave heating to allow steam to escape.
- Freezer: Safe for use in the freezer.
- Dishwasher: Safe for cleaning in a dishwasher.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: While dishwasher safe, handwashing the lid with a soft sponge and mild detergent is recommended to preserve the integrity of the seal. The glass base can be safely washed in the dishwasher.
- Stains: For stubborn stains on the glass, a paste of baking soda and water can be used as a gentle abrasive.
- Lid Maintenance: Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the lid, as this can damage the sealing mechanism. Ensure the lid's silicone seal (if applicable) is clean and free from debris before closing.
- Thermal Shock: Allow the glass container to cool before placing it in water or transferring it between extreme temperature environments (e.g., from oven to a cold surface).
