  Tilting the product abruptly may cause the contents to come out too fast, potentially causing scalds.
• ［For Stopper unit］
  Do not tilt the product abruptly when pouring the contents into a cup. Do not turn the inner stopper too much.
  If the product is tilted abruptly or the inner stopper is turned too much, such that it comes off, the contents may come out too fast, potentially causing scalds.
