Troubleshooting
Lid does not seal tightly
Ensure the silicone seal on the lid is properly seated and free from debris. Wipe the rim of the jar and the seal clean. For acacia wood, ensure it is not warped; if it is, contact customer support.
Stains on the interior of the jar
For minor stains, use a paste of baking soda and water, gently scrub, and rinse thoroughly. For tougher stains, consult the manufacturer's recommendations for specific cleaning agents.
Wood lid appears dry or dull
Apply a small amount of food-safe mineral oil to a clean cloth and rub it into the wood. Allow it to absorb for a few hours, then wipe away any excess. Repeat as needed.
Jar has chipped or cracked
Inspect the damage. Minor chips on the enamel might be cosmetic, but significant cracks can compromise the jar's integrity. Contact Le Creuset customer service regarding warranty claims.
