USE AND CARE

USE

Before first use, hand wash or wash in dish washer, and dry lids and vessels thoroughly

Dishwasher safe: place lids in top rack and glass vessels in bottom rack

Avoid abrasive cleaners and scouring pads

Microwave safe: Use for reheating purpose in microwave without browning element. When reheating in the microwave, make sure the vent is lifted to a upward position to release steam, or, remove lid and cover with paper towel to prevent splatters

Oven Safe: Only glass vessels can be used in conventional ovens and lids should be removed at all times. Oven must be preheated before inserting glassware.

Avoid severe and sudden temperature changes: To avoid the risk of breakage due to a severe and sudden temperature change, do not add liquid to hot Snapware Pyrex; or place hot Snapware Pyrex on a wet or cool surface; or handle hot glassware with a wet towel, wet potholder or other wet cloth. Be sure to allow hot glassware to cool before washing, refrigeration or freezing.

Refrigerator and Freezer Safe: When using Snapware Pyrex for storing food in refrigerator or freezer, please remove the lid and allow glass vessel to sit for 1 or 2 min, after removing from the freezer, before placing in the microwave. When freezing, only fill container 75% to allow room for expansion.

CARE

Before first use remove any gasket from lid. Wash and dry lids, vessels and gaskets thoroughly. Reassemble gasket into lid after washing by firmly pressing into place.

Avoid cutting food inside the containers with sharp utensils.

Avoid abrasive cleaners and scrub pads.

To prevent plastic from staining and blistering, avoid overheating of high-fat foods, sugar, oils and tomato sauces.

TOTAL SOLUTIONS PLASTIC LIDS

To Write On:

Use a soft tip non-toxic permanent marker or a soft tip wet erase marker. Writing should be contained to the “write here” area and marking on the textured areas should be avoided. You will not be able to remove the ink if it is on the texture area.

To Remove Markings:

Wet Erase Marker – Simply wash the lid by hand or in the dishwasher.

Permanent Marker – Gently rub off using a soft dry dish cloth, paper towel or tissue.

Other Considerations: Should the ink become hard to remove, you can use a few drops of isopropyl alcohol to remove writing.

SAFETY

Do not use on or under a flame or other direct heat source

Do not use on stovetop, under browning element, on a grill or in a toaster oven

DO NOT: use glassware to microwave popcorn or foods wrapped in heat-concentrating material (such as special browning wrappers); heat empty or nearly empty glassware in the microwave; or overheat oil or butter in microwave (use minimum cooking time). Plastic lids should be removed for reheating purposes. Always loosen latches and remove lid.

Be Careful When Handling Broken Glass. Broken glass pieces may be extremely sharp and difficult to locate.

DO NOT use or repair any glassware that is broken, chipped, cracked or severely scratched.

DO NOT drop or hit glassware against a hard object.

DO NOT strike utensils against glassware.

WARNING: As with all glass products, failure to carefully follow the use and care instructions may cause the glass vessel to break or shatter immediately or later, which could result in property damage and serious personal injury.

FAQ

SHOULD SNAPWARE® FOOD STORAGE CONTAINERS BE WASHED BEFORE USE?

Yes, we recommend washing all containers before storing food in them. Please follow the directions that came with your container or read the Use & Care Instructions.

ARE SNAPWARE® PRODUCTS BPA FREE?

Yes, every product that Snapware® currently sells is completely free of bisphenol-A (BPA). Snapware is committed to providing customers with safe, high quality and innovative storage containers, and removing BPA from all products is an important part of doing just that. Recently there has been much debate over the safety of BPA, which is a component of polycarbonate used in many plastics. BPA can potentially leach from containers when heated (via microwave or other methods), ultimately creating a safety risk when in contact with food. Due to these potential hazards, Snapware’s extensive product lines are manufactured entirely without the use of BPA. We back our BPA-free claim with continuous material testing conducted by an internationally recognized independent lab. For additional details on BPA, visit http://www.factsonplastic.com/.

HOW CAN I REMOVE THE PRODUCT BARCODE STICKER?

Our lids all use removable adhesives that should come off easily; however, sometimes heat and other factors make the stickers difficult to remove completely. In this case, before washing, use a hair dryer to heat the label. Then peel it off. You also can use any type of oil or any product specially designed to remove adhesive stickers.

WHAT TYPE OF PLASTIC ARE AIRTIGHT CONTAINERS MADE OF?

Both the lids and vessels are made of polypropylene (PP) and the seals are made of silicone. These plastics are 100% BPA free. Containers are food safe and FDA approved.

ARE MY AIRTIGHT CONTAINERS MICROWAVE SAFE?

Yes, all airtight containers are microwave safe. Please read the complete Use and Care instructions.

IS IT OK TO WASH MY AIRTIGHT CONTAINERS IN THE DISHWASHER?

Yes, all airtight containers are dishwasher safe. Please read the complete Use and Care instructions.

CAN I AIRTIGHT CONTAINERS GO IN THE FREEZER/FRIDGE?

Yes, all Snapware® containers are designed for use in the freezer and refrigerator. Please read the complete Use and Care instructions.

I USED MY CONTAINER IN THE MICROWAVE AND NOW THE LID HAS FORMED A VACUUM SEAL TO THE CONTAINER. HOW DO I REMOVE IT?

Any time a container is placed in a microwave, you must first loosen latches and remove the lid. Then cover the base with paper towel to prevent splatters. Do not return the lid to the container or latch the lid if the food is hot. If you do have a lid that is stuck, allow the contents of the container to cool to room temperature, then try to remove the lid. Do not use any tools or utensils to pry the lid loose. If you cannot remove the lid with your hands it is more likely that the lid is damaged and should be discarded.
