Can I put these in the dishwasher?

Do I need to leave the lid on when heating in the microwave?

How do I know if the vacuum seal is active?
When the vacuum is active, the center button will remain in a depressed state.
Troubleshooting
Lid is difficult to remove
Ensure the air valve has been pulled up to release the vacuum pressure before lifting the lid.

Remove the silicone seal, rinse it, and ensure it is clean and properly seated in the groove of the lid.
Vacuum seal isn't holding
Check the rim of the glass container for any food debris or chips that might prevent an airtight closure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use the vacuum system, place the lid on the container and press the center button to release trapped air, ensuring the silicone seal is properly seated. When opening, pull up on the air valve first to break the seal before attempting to remove the lid. The containers are dishwasher safe; however, for the longest lifespan of the silicone seal, a gentle hand wash is recommended. They are oven and air fryer safe, but avoid placing the lid itself in the oven or under a broiler. Ensure the container reaches room temperature after being in the freezer before placing it directly into a preheated oven to prevent extreme thermal stress.
