Troubleshooting
Spout is dripping after pouring
Ensure the pouring motion is swift and decisive; the non-drip design relies on a clean 'cut' at the end of the pour to prevent residual drops.
Lid feels stiff or difficult to open
Check the hinge for any mineral buildup or dried tea residue and clean thoroughly with hot soapy water.
Surface spots appearing after dishwasher cycle
Ensure the teapot is dried immediately after the dishwasher cycle completes to prevent water spots from forming on the high-polish finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before first use, ensure the teapot is thoroughly washed with a mild detergent and rinsed to remove any manufacturing residue. The teapot is compatible with standard cafe service trays and is suitable for most commercial dishwashers. To maintain the mirror finish, avoid using abrasive scouring pads or harsh steel wool, which may scratch the polished surface. For stubborn stains, a simple soak in warm soapy water followed by a gentle cloth wipe is usually sufficient to restore the teapot's appearance.
