Pyrex Clear Glass Casserole Baking Dishes Set (Models 233 & 232)

1. Product Overview

This manual provides essential information for the safe and effective use of your Pyrex Clear Glass Casserole Baking Dishes Set. This set includes two rectangular baking dishes: one 3-quart (Model 233) and one 2-quart (Model 232).

The dishes are crafted from durable, non-porous tempered glass, designed to resist retaining food flavors and odors. They are proudly Made in the USA.

2. Setup and First Use

Before initial use, wash both baking dishes thoroughly with warm, soapy water. Rinse completely and dry. Ensure the dishes are completely dry before placing them in an oven or microwave.

3. Operating Instructions

These Pyrex baking dishes are designed for versatile use in various kitchen appliances:

• Oven Use: The dishes are oven safe. Always preheat your oven before placing the dishes inside. Avoid placing cold dishes directly into a hot oven or hot dishes onto cold surfaces to prevent thermal shock.
• Microwave Use: The dishes are safe for use in the microwave.
• Freezer Use: The dishes can be used for freezing food. Allow frozen dishes to reach room temperature before placing them in a preheated oven.
• Refrigerator Use: Ideal for storing leftovers in the refrigerator.

Important Safety Note:

• DO NOT use these dishes on a stovetop, under a broiler, or with any other direct heat source.
• Avoid sudden temperature changes, such as adding cold liquid to a hot dish or placing a hot dish on a wet or cold surface.

4. Maintenance & Care

Cleaning your Pyrex baking dishes is straightforward:

• Dishwasher Safe: Both dishes are completely dishwasher safe for easy cleaning.
• Hand Washing: For hand washing, use warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge or cloth. Avoid using harsh scouring pads or abrasive cleaners that could scratch the glass surface.

5. Compatibility

The 3-quart dish (Model 233) is compatible with the 233-PC 3qt lid. The 2-quart dish (Model 232) is compatible with the 222-PC 2qt lid. Please note that lids are sold separately.

6. Troubleshooting

While Pyrex glass bakeware is durable, certain conditions can lead to issues:

• Thermal Shock: Glass can break due to sudden and extreme temperature changes. Always ensure dishes are at room temperature before placing them in a hot oven or adding hot liquids to cold dishes, and vice-versa.
• Breakage: Although made from tempered glass, these dishes can break if dropped or subjected to significant impact. Handle with care.
