Operating Instructions

The Pyrex Easy Grab bakeware is designed for versatile use in various kitchen environments.

• Oven Use: Glass dishes are safe for use in preheated conventional and convection ovens. Avoid placing hot dishes directly on cold surfaces or adding cold liquids to hot dishes to prevent thermal shock. Do not use lids in the oven.
• Microwave Use: Both glass dishes and plastic lids are safe for microwave use. When microwaving with the lid, ensure it is vented to allow steam to escape.
• Refrigerator and Freezer Use: The glass dishes and plastic lids are safe for storing food in the refrigerator and freezer. Ensure lids are securely fastened for optimal freshness.
• Easy Grab Handles: The integrated handles provide a secure grip, making it easier to transport dishes from the oven to the table or for storage. Always use oven mitts when handling hot dishes.
• Lid Compatibility: The included red plastic lids are specifically designed to fit the 3-quart (C-233) and 2-quart (C-232) glass dishes, providing a snug fit for storage.

Care and Maintenance

Proper care will extend the life of your Pyrex Easy Grab bakeware.

• Dishwasher Safe: Both the glass dishes and plastic lids are dishwasher safe for easy cleaning. Place lids on the top rack.
• Hand Washing: For hand washing, use a non-abrasive sponge or cloth with warm, soapy water. For stubborn food residue, soak the dish in warm water before cleaning.
• Storage: The dishes are designed to nest within each other, and the lids can be stacked, allowing for compact storage in your cabinets.
• Avoid Abrasives: Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or sharp utensils on the glass or lids, as this can cause scratches or damage.

Troubleshooting

Here are solutions to common issues you might encounter:

• Food Sticking: For easier food release, lightly grease the interior of the glass dish before adding ingredients. Soaking the dish in warm, soapy water after use can help loosen baked-on food.
• Lid Not Sealing Properly: Ensure the lid is correctly aligned with the rim of the glass dish. Press down firmly around the edges to create a secure seal. Check for any food particles or debris on the rim that might prevent a proper seal.
• Glass Breakage: Pyrex glass is durable but can break due to sudden temperature changes (thermal shock) or impact. Always allow hot dishes to cool before washing or placing in the refrigerator/freezer. Avoid placing hot dishes on wet or cold surfaces.
• Stains on Lids: Some foods, especially those with strong colors like tomato sauce, may stain the plastic lids over time. This is normal and does not affect the lid's functionality. Soaking in a baking soda solution or exposing to sunlight may help reduce stains.
