 ## Usage in Sass
 
 The tokens can be imported as Sass variables as well.
+As they are already prefixed, the namespace that Sass would assign isn’t necessary.
 
 ```sass
-@import "@amsterdam/design-system-tokens/dist/index.scss"
+@use "@amsterdam/design-system-tokens/dist/index.scss" as *;
 ```
 
 Import the compact tokens if you need them.
 Sass will override spacious values automatically.
 
 ```sass
-@import "@amsterdam/design-system-tokens/dist/compact.scss"
+@use "@amsterdam/design-system-tokens/dist/compact.scss" as *;
 ```
