Setup and First Use
- Unpacking: Carefully remove all containers and lids from the packaging.

Operating Guidelines
General Use
- Food Storage: Use containers for storing various food items in the refrigerator or freezer. The clear glass allows for easy identification of contents.
- Meal Prep: Ideal for preparing and portioning meals in advance.
- Lid Application: Ensure lids fit snugly over the glass containers to maintain freshness and prevent leaks.
Microwave Use
- Glass containers are microwave safe.
- Plastic lids are microwave safe. When microwaving with the lid, ensure it is loosely placed or vented to allow steam to escape.
- Avoid extreme temperature changes; do not place a frozen container directly into a hot microwave.
Freezer Use
- Glass containers and plastic lids are freezer safe.
- Allow hot foods to cool before placing them in the freezer to prevent thermal shock.
- Do not overfill containers when freezing liquids, as contents may expand.
Oven Use
- Glass containers are oven safe.
- Do not use plastic lids in the oven.
- Avoid placing hot glass directly on cold or wet surfaces.

Care and Maintenance
- Dishwasher Safe: Both glass containers and plastic lids are top-rack dishwasher safe. For best results and to prolong the life of the lids, hand washing is recommended.
- Hand Washing: Use warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge or cloth. Rinse thoroughly.
- Stain Resistance: Pyrex glass naturally resists stains and odors, making cleaning simple.
- Lid Care: Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on lids, as this may damage the seal.
Storage
The round containers are designed to nest within each other for space-saving storage when not in use. Lids can be stacked separately or placed on their corresponding containers.

Troubleshooting
- Lid not sealing: Ensure the lid is properly aligned with the container rim and press down firmly around the edges. Check for any food debris preventing a tight seal.
- Glass breakage: Avoid sudden temperature changes (e.g., hot glass on a cold surface, or frozen glass directly into a hot oven). Do not use chipped or cracked glass.
- Stains/Odors: While Pyrex glass is highly resistant, stubborn stains or odors can sometimes be removed by soaking in a baking soda and water solution, or by washing with a vinegar solution.
