2. Setup and Assembly
These pitchers are designed for immediate use with minimal assembly required.
- Unpacking: Carefully remove the pitchers from their packaging. Inspect each pitcher and lid for any signs of damage.
- Lid Attachment: The lid is detachable. To attach, align the lid with the pitcher's rim and press down firmly until it snaps securely into place. To detach, apply gentle pressure with your thumb to pop the lid off.
- Initial Cleaning: Before first use, wash the pitcher and lid with warm water and mild soap. Rinse thoroughly.
3. Operating Instructions
Using your Medline Plastic Pitcher is straightforward:
- Filling: Remove the lid or use the designated opening to fill the pitcher with your desired beverage. The pitcher has a capacity of 1000 cc (32 oz).
- Adding Ice: If adding ice, the easy-pour spout is designed to hold back ice when pouring.
- Pouring: Use the easy-pour spout for controlled dispensing of liquids. The reinforced tabs under the handle provide added stability during pouring.
- Drinking with Straw: The lid includes a new straw opening, allowing users to drink directly from the pitcher using a straw (straws not included).
4. Care and Maintenance
Proper care ensures the longevity and hygiene of your pitchers:
- Cleaning: Wash pitchers and lids thoroughly after each use with warm water and mild detergent. Rinse completely to remove all soap residue.
- Drying: Allow pitchers and lids to air dry completely or dry with a clean cloth before storage.
- Storage: Store in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
5. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues, consider the following:
- Lid not sealing properly: Ensure the lid is correctly aligned with the pitcher's rim and pressed down firmly until it clicks into place. Check for any debris on the rim or lid that might prevent a proper seal.
- Difficulty detaching lid: Apply firm but gentle pressure with your thumb on the designated area to pop the lid off. Avoid excessive force.
- Spout not holding back ice: Ensure ice cubes are not excessively large or irregularly shaped, which might prevent the spout from functioning optimally.
