3. Operating Instructions

3.1 Sealing the Lids

The Tupperware Heritage Collection features the classic sunburst lid design, engineered for an airtight seal to lock in freshness. To properly seal a lid:

1. Place the lid evenly over the rim of the bowl.
2. Press down firmly on the center of the lid with your palm or elbow.
3. Continue pressing until you hear a distinct 'pop' sound, indicating that the air has been expelled and a secure seal has been formed.

3.2 Nesting for Storage

The bowls are designed to nest within each other, allowing for compact and efficient storage when not in use. Simply stack the smaller bowls inside the larger ones to save cabinet space.

• Dishwasher Safe: All bowls and lids are dishwasher safe. For best results and to maintain their vibrant colors, place them on the top rack of your dishwasher.
• Hand Washing: If hand washing, use warm water and a mild dish soap. Avoid abrasive scrubbers that could scratch the surface.

5. Troubleshooting

5.1 Lids are Difficult to Seal

If a lid is difficult to seal or does not form a tight seal, try the following:

• Warm Water Treatment: Soak the lid in very hot water for approximately 10 minutes. This can help the plastic become more pliable.
• Immediately after soaking, place the warm lid on the corresponding bowl and press down firmly in the center to create the seal. Allow it to cool on the bowl. This can help reshape the lid for a better fit.
• Ensure the rim of the bowl and the edge of the lid are clean and free from any food debris or moisture, which can interfere with the seal.
