Maintenance and Cleaning
Cleaning Instructions
- Bottle Body: Hand wash the stainless steel bottle body with warm, soapy water. Do not place the bottle body in the dishwasher to preserve its insulation properties and finish.
- Lid: The lid is dishwasher safe (top rack only). For thorough cleaning, the lid can be easily disassembled. Remove the straw and any other detachable parts before washing.
- Straw: Clean the straw with a straw brush and warm, soapy water.
- Rinse all components thoroughly after washing and allow them to air dry completely before reassembly.
Important Notes
- Do not use abrasive cleaners or scrubbers on any part of the bottle.
- Not for use with hot liquids. This bottle is designed for cold beverages only.
- Ensure all parts are dry before storing to prevent mold or odors.
Troubleshooting
- Leakage: If the bottle leaks, ensure the lid is securely tightened and the spout cover is fully closed and locked. Check that the silicone gasket inside the lid is properly seated and free from debris.
- Reduced Insulation: If your beverage is not staying cold for the expected duration, ensure the lid is tightly sealed and the bottle has not been exposed to extreme heat, which can affect the vacuum insulation.
- Difficulty Sipping: If you experience difficulty sipping through the straw, check that the straw is properly inserted and not obstructed. Ensure the spout cover is fully open.
