Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Sistema Microwave Set requires no assembly. Simply unpack the containers and their lids. Ensure lids are aligned correctly with the base before pressing down firmly to secure them.
Compatibility: These containers are compatible with most standard microwaves, freezers, and dishwashers. Always ensure there is adequate space for the containers when using these appliances.
Care Instructions: To maintain the longevity and performance of your containers:
- Cleaning: Wash by hand with warm soapy water or place them on the top rack of your dishwasher.
- Microwave Use: Vent the lid slightly or remove it completely before microwaving to allow steam to escape. Avoid overheating, especially with fatty or sugary foods, as this can cause the plastic to melt or deform.
- Freezer Use: Ensure lids are securely fastened before placing in the freezer to prevent freezer burn.
- Staining: For stubborn stains, create a paste of baking soda and water, apply it to the stained area, let it sit for a few hours, then wash as usual. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads which can scratch the plastic.
