Operating Instructions

General Use

• Use the glass bowl for mixing ingredients for baking, cooking, or general food preparation.
• The bowl's non-porous surface prevents absorption of food odors, flavors, or stains.

Food Storage

• Place the blue plastic lid firmly onto the rim of the glass bowl to create a seal for food storage.
• The bowl and lid are safe for use in the refrigerator and freezer.
• Note: The lid is specifically designed for the Pyrex 7404 4.5Qt bowl and may not fit other bowls. Similarly, this bowl is designed for the 7404-PC lid only.

Microwave Use

• The glass bowl is microwave safe.
• The plastic lid is also microwave safe. When microwaving with the lid, ensure it is loosely placed or vented to allow steam to escape and prevent pressure buildup.

Maintenance

Cleaning

• Both the glass bowl and the plastic lid are top-rack dishwasher safe.
• For hand washing, use warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge or cloth.
• Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the glass or plastic.

Storage
