- Always ensure the lid is securely in place before operating the milk frother.
- The transparent material allows you to monitor the frothing process without removing the lid.

4. Cleaning and Maintenance
Regular cleaning of your replacement lid will ensure hygiene and prolong its lifespan.
- After Each Use: Remove the lid from the milk frother.
- Hand Washing: Wash the lid with warm, soapy water. Use a soft sponge or cloth to clean all surfaces. Rinse thoroughly under running water to remove all soap residue.
- Dishwasher Safety: The lid is generally dishwasher safe. Place it on the top rack of your dishwasher for cleaning. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaning tools that could scratch the surface.
- Drying: Allow the lid to air dry completely or wipe it with a clean, dry cloth before storing or reattaching it to the frother.
Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can damage the transparent material and stainless steel components.
