Risoluzione dei problemi

• Il cibo non rimane caldo/freddo:
  • Ensure the lids are screwed on tightly to create a proper seal.
  • Verify that the integrated seal unit is correctly seated.
  • Confirm pre-heating or pre-cooling steps were followed.
  • Avoid opening the jar frequently, as this reduces temperature retention.
• Coperchio difficile da aprire:
  • A vacuum may form inside. Try twisting the outer lid firmly. If still stuck, run warm water over the outer lid for a few seconds to expand it slightly.
• Odori sgradevoli:
  • Ensure all parts are thoroughly cleaned and dried after each use.
  • For persistent odors, a mixture of baking soda and water can be used for soaking, followed by thorough rinsing.
