Product Overview

Setup and Installation
The REDUCE Bottle Carry Strap is designed for simple and quick installation on compatible bottles. Follow these steps to attach the strap:
- Identify Compatible Bottles: Ensure your bottle is a REDUCE Hydro Tritan or Hydro Pro bottle, or any bottle with a neck diameter of 1.75 inches or greater.
- Prepare the Strap: Hold one of the silicone carry straps. Notice the two loops at each end of the strap.
- Attach to Bottle Neck: Gently stretch one loop of the silicone strap over the neck of your bottle, just below the rim or cap.
- Secure the Second Loop: Bring the other loop of the strap around the opposite side of the bottle neck and stretch it over, ensuring both loops are securely seated around the bottle neck. The strap should fit snugly.
- Verify Attachment: Lightly pull on the strap to confirm it is firmly attached and will not slip off during use.
The silicone material provides a secure grip, preventing the strap from easily detaching once installed correctly.
Operating Instructions
Once the REDUCE Bottle Carry Strap is securely attached to your bottle, it provides a convenient handle for transport. Here are common ways to utilize your carry strap:
- Hand Carry: Use the strap as a comfortable loop to carry your bottle by hand, reducing strain compared to gripping the bottle directly.
- Finger Carry: For quick grabs, hook one or two fingers through the loop.
- Attachment Point: The strap can be used to attach your bottle to a carabiner, allowing you to clip it to backpacks, gym bags, or other gear for hands-free transport.
The strap is designed to withstand the weight of a full bottle during typical activities such as running, exercising, and camping.

Maintenance and Care
To ensure the longevity and hygiene of your REDUCE Bottle Carry Strap, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: The silicone strap can be easily cleaned with warm water and mild soap. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before reattaching to a bottle or storing.
- Storage: Store the straps in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the strap for any signs of wear, tears, or damage. Discontinue use if the strap shows significant signs of degradation to prevent accidental drops of your bottle.
Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning tools, as these may damage the silicone material.
Troubleshooting
While the REDUCE Bottle Carry Strap is designed for reliable performance, here are some common considerations and their solutions:
| Issue | Possible Cause / Solution |
|---|---|
| Strap feels too tight or difficult to attach. | Ensure the bottle neck diameter is within the specified compatibility (1.75 inches or greater). The strap is designed for a snug fit to prevent slipping. Apply gentle, even pressure when stretching over the bottle neck. |
| Strap feels too loose or slips. | Verify that both loops of the strap are fully seated around the bottle neck. Ensure your bottle's neck diameter is not significantly smaller than 1.75 inches. If the strap is damaged or stretched out from prolonged improper use, replacement may be necessary. |
| Strap appears damaged (tear, crack). | Discontinue use immediately. A damaged strap may not securely hold your bottle. Contact REDUCE customer support for assistance or consider purchasing a replacement. |
