3. Setup

Before First Use:

1. Remove all packaging materials and labels from the canisters and lids.
2. Wash all components (canisters and lids) thoroughly with warm, soapy water or place them in the dishwasher.
3. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely before storing food.

4. Operating Instructions

Sealing the Lid:

1. Place the lid on top of the canister, ensuring it is centered.
2. Press down firmly on the center of the lid with your thumb or palm.
3. While maintaining pressure in the center, run your fingers around the rim of the lid to ensure a complete seal. You should hear a slight "click" or feel the air being expelled, indicating a secure, liquid-tight seal.

Opening the Lid:

1. Locate the small tab or lip on the edge of the lid.
2. Gently lift the tab to break the seal.
3. Continue to lift around the edge until the lid detaches from the canister.

5. Maintenance & Care

• Cleaning: All components are dishwasher safe. For best results, place on the top rack of the dishwasher. Hand washing with warm, soapy water is also effective.
• Drying: Ensure all parts are completely dry before storing to prevent odors or mildew.
• Stain Prevention: To minimize staining, rinse containers immediately after use, especially after storing foods with strong colors like tomato sauce.
• Microwave Use: These canisters are generally not recommended for microwave use. Please refer to the product packaging for specific microwave safety guidelines.
• Storage: Canisters and lids are designed to stack and nest for compact storage when empty.

6. Troubleshooting

Lid Not Sealing Properly:

• Check Alignment: Ensure the lid is perfectly centered on the canister before pressing down.
• Apply Firm Pressure: Press firmly in the center of the lid and then around the edges to expel air and create a vacuum seal.
• Inspect Lid and Rim: Check the lid and the rim of the canister for any food debris, cracks, or damage that might prevent a proper seal. Clean if necessary.
• Temperature: Sometimes, very cold lids or containers can be harder to seal. Allow them to reach room temperature if experiencing difficulty.
