Safety Information

- Pressure Buildup: Do not overfill. Hot beverages can create internal pressure, which may cause the lid to open unexpectedly or spray contents.
- Microwave/Freezer: Do not place in microwave or freezer.
- Carbonated Beverages: Not intended for use with carbonated beverages, as pressure buildup can cause the lid to open unexpectedly.
- Cleaning: Always ensure the lid is securely closed before shaking or transporting.

Setup
Initial Cleaning:
Before first use, wash all parts with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly. Refer to the "Maintenance and Cleaning" section for detailed cleaning instructions.
Assembling the Mug:
Ensure the lid is properly aligned and securely threaded onto the mug body. Turn clockwise until tight to prevent leaks.
Operating Instructions
Filling the Mug:
- Unscrew the TwistSeal lid from the mug body.

Using the TwistSeal™ Lid:
- To Open for Drinking: Twist the top part of the lid counter-clockwise until the drinking spout is exposed. The CleanGuard™ cover will retract.
- To Close and Seal: Twist the top part of the lid clockwise until the drinking spout is fully covered and the lid clicks into the locked position. This ensures a leak-proof seal.

Maintenance and Cleaning
Proper cleaning ensures the longevity and hygiene of your travel mug.
Lid Cleaning:
- The TwistSeal lid is top-rack dishwasher safe.

Mug Body Cleaning:
- The stainless steel mug body is hand wash only.
- Wash with warm, soapy water using a bottle brush if necessary to reach the bottom. Rinse thoroughly.
- Do not use abrasive cleaners or scrubbers on the mug body, as this may damage the finish.
Drying and Storage:
Allow all parts to dry completely before reassembling or storing to prevent odor or mildew buildup. Store with the lid off or slightly ajar to allow air circulation.
