Temperature Retention
The AeroLight double-wall vacuum insulation is designed to keep beverages hot or cold for extended periods. For optimal performance, ensure the lid is securely closed and locked when not in use.
Maintenance and Cleaning

- Lid Cleaning: The lid can be disassembled for more thorough cleaning. Pay special attention to the drinking spout and sealing components to prevent residue buildup.
- Dishwasher Safe: The bottle and lid are typically dishwasher safe (top rack recommended). However, hand washing is often preferred to prolong the life of the finish and seals.
- Drying: Allow all parts to air dry completely before reassembling and storing to prevent odors or mildew.
