Troubleshooting
Food not staying hot/cold as expected.
Ensure the lid is tightly sealed. Pre-condition the jar with hot or cold water for 5-10 minutes before filling with food. Note that effectiveness depends on the initial temperature of the food and ambient temperature.
Difficulty opening or closing the lid.
Ensure the lid threads are clean and free from debris. If the lid feels too tight, try running the lid under warm water briefly. Make sure the lid is aligned correctly before screwing it on.
Minor leaks from the lid.
Check the rubber seal on the lid for any damage or debris. Ensure the lid is screwed on straight and securely. If the seal is damaged, contact customer support.
Odors or stains inside the jar.
Wash thoroughly with warm, soapy water. For stubborn odors or stains, try a mixture of baking soda and water, let it sit for a few hours, then rinse. Ensure the jar is completely dry after washing.
