Troubleshooting
Lid is difficult to snap shut
Ensure the lid is correctly aligned with the container corners and press firmly starting from one side moving to the other.
Leaking while carrying
Check the silicone seal inside the lid for any trapped food particles or damage; rinse and reseat the seal if necessary.
Stains from food like tomato sauce
Wash immediately with warm soapy water. For stubborn stains, a light baking soda paste can help remove discoloration without damaging the plastic.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your Mepal container, ensure the seal is clean and free of food debris before closing, as even small particles can compromise the leak-proof performance. When storing in the freezer, leave a small amount of headspace to allow for expansion. For cleaning, the container and lid are top-rack dishwasher safe; however, avoid using abrasive scrubbers on the transparent window to prevent scratching and maintain clarity. When using in the microwave, verify that your appliance settings are appropriate for plastic food containers and remove the lid if performing high-heat or long-duration heating.
