Use &Amp; Care

• Resin Can Sometimes Ooze Out On The Surface. However, It’S A Natural Ingredient And Harmless Despite Its Yellowish, Sticky And Stain-Like Appearance. If You Wipe It Off With Vinegar Or Ethanol Liquid (Sterilizing Alcohol), You Can Get Rid Of The Stickiness. Although Some Of Yellow Stains Will Remain, There’S No Problem In Use With Safety Assured.
• The Lid Should Be Sufficiently Washed With (Hot) Water After Use To Make Sure There Isn’T Any Bit Of Food Left, Which Can Cause Black Stains. After Washed, It Should Be Well-Drained, Wiped With A Dry Cloth And Dried In Cool Well-Ventilated Places Out Of Direct Sunlight. If It’S Dried Without The Remaining Water Wiped Off First, Its Wood Will Quickly Shrink, Causing Cracks And Loosening Of The Surrounding Copper Ornamentation. The Longer It Remains Wet, The Sooner It Gets Molded Or Black-Stained.
• Incompatible With Dishwashers.
