Care Guidelines:

• Remove all labels/packaging and wash before use.
• Sistema® KLIP IT PLUS containers are safe for normal household dishwashers (top rack only). Ensure the containers are secure on the top rack, this prevents them from contacting the heating element and avoids melting.
• Warm soapy water can also be used to wash the containers.
