Silicone sealing ring
Remove the sealing ring
Grip the edge of the silicone and pull the
sealing ring out from behind the circular
stainless steel sealing ring rack.
With the sealing ring removed, check
the ring rack to make sure it is secured,
centred and an even height all the way
around the lid. Do not attempt to repair a
deformed ring rack.
Instant Tip: The sealing ring is easier
to remove and install when it’s wet
and soapy.
Install the sealing ring
Place the sealing ring over the sealing ring
rack and rmly press it into place. Make
sure there’s no puckering.
It should be snug behind the sealing
ring rack. It may wiggle a bit but
shouldn’t fall out when you turn
the lid over.
