4. Operating Instructions

4.1 General Use

• Pyrex glass is non-porous, meaning it will not warp, stain, or absorb odors from food.
• The containers are designed for storing, reheating, and serving food.
• The set is stackable for efficient storage in cabinets or refrigerators.

4.2 Temperature Guidelines

• Glass Containers: Safe for use in preheated ovens, microwaves, refrigerators, and freezers.
• Plastic Lids: Safe for use in refrigerators, freezers, and microwaves. Lids are BPA-free.

4.3 Important Safety Information

• Avoid Extreme Temperature Changes: Do not place hot glass directly onto a cold or wet surface, or vice versa. This can cause thermal shock and breakage.
• Oven Use: Always place glass containers into a preheated oven. Do not use on stovetop burners, under a broiler, or in a toaster oven. Remove lids before placing glass in a conventional oven.
• Microwave Use: Lids can be used in the microwave for reheating. Ensure the lid is vented or slightly ajar to allow steam to escape.
• Freezer Use: When freezing liquids, leave space for expansion to prevent cracking.
• Handling Hot Glass: Always use oven mitts or pot holders when handling hot glass containers.
• Avoid Impact: Do not drop or strike glass containers against hard surfaces.

5. Maintenance and Care

• Dishwasher Safe: Both the glass containers and the blue plastic lids are dishwasher safe. Place lids on the top rack of the dishwasher.
• Hand Washing: For best results and to prolong the life of the lids, hand washing with warm, soapy water is recommended.
• Cleaning Stains: For stubborn food stains on glass, soak in warm, soapy water before washing. A non-abrasive cleaner can be used if necessary.
• Storage: Store containers with lids on or stacked neatly to prevent chipping and save space.

6. Troubleshooting

• Lid not sealing properly: Ensure the lid is correctly aligned with the container rim. Check for any food debris caught between the lid and the glass.
• Food sticking to glass: For baked-on food, soak the container in warm, soapy water for a period before attempting to clean.
• Glass breakage: If a glass container breaks, discontinue use immediately and dispose of safely. Glass breakage is often due to thermal shock or impact. Refer to safety guidelines in Section 4.3.
