A lid that looks close is not necessarily a compatible seal. Match the exact product family and intended use.
What to do
Keep base and lid identifiers together, inspect clips and seals according to the maker’s guidance and separate heat-use instructions for each component.
A mistake to avoid
Do not substitute an almost-fitting lid for transport or assume every lid is microwave-approved because the base is.
A detail worth checking
Inspect seals as the maker directs and keep replacement information with the container model. A similar-looking component from another range is not automatically a compatible repair.
Try this practical check
Inventory the containers, pair each with its correct lid and mark uncertain matches for confirmation before use.
