Troubleshooting

Lid is difficult to close

Ensure there is no food debris obstructing the lid closure. Press down firmly and evenly on both sides of the lid.

Container appears cloudy after washing

This is often due to hard water. Try washing with a vinegar-water solution or using a dishwasher rinse aid.

Contents are leaking

Confirm the lid is fully and securely closed. Ensure the container is not overfilled, as this can prevent a proper seal.

Container retains odor

Soak the container in a solution of baking soda and water for a few hours, then wash thoroughly.
