3. Setup

1. Unpack: Carefully remove all components from the packaging.

4. Operating Instructions

4.1. Microwave Steaming

1. Prepare Food: Place your desired food items (e.g., vegetables, fish) into the expanded silicone container. For steaming, a small amount of water can be added to the bottom if desired, or rely on the food's natural moisture.
2. Secure Lid: Place the glass lid securely on top of the container. Ensure the vent on the lid is open or slightly ajar to allow steam to escape during cooking.
3. Microwave: Place the container in the microwave. Cook for the recommended time based on your food type and microwave wattage. Start with shorter intervals and check for doneness.
4. Serve: Carefully remove the container from the microwave using the anti-hot handles. Be cautious of hot steam when opening the lid.

4.2. Food Storage

The containers with their sealed lids are ideal for storing leftovers in the refrigerator or freezer. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed to maintain freshness and prevent odors.

4.3. Oven and Air Fryer Use

These containers are safe for use in air fryers and ovens within the temperature range of -20°C to 230°C. Always ensure the glass lid is suitable for oven temperatures if used in an oven, or remove the lid if not specified for oven use.

5. Maintenance

1. Cleaning: The containers and lids are dishwasher safe. For hand washing, use warm, soapy water and a soft sponge. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scrubbers that could damage the silicone or glass.
2. Drying: Ensure all parts are completely dry before storing to prevent water spots or mildew.
3. Storage: To save space, collapse the silicone containers by gently pressing down on the sides. Store lids separately or stacked on top of collapsed containers.

6. Troubleshooting

• Food Not Cooking Evenly: Ensure food is distributed evenly in the container. Adjust microwave power and cooking time as needed. Stirring food halfway through cooking can also help.
• Lid Not Sealing Properly: Check for any food debris or residue on the rim of the container or the silicone seal of the lid. Ensure the container is fully expanded before placing the lid.
• Stains or Odors: For stubborn stains or odors, a paste of baking soda and water can be applied and left for a few hours before washing. Ensure thorough rinsing.
• Container Feels Hot: Always use the integrated anti-hot handles when removing the container from the microwave or oven. Use oven mitts if necessary.
