Ensure the flip-top lid is fully closed and latched. Check that the silicone seal is correctly seated within the lid. Verify the straw cap is also closed.
Difficulty sipping through the straw.
Ensure the flip-top lid is fully open. Check that the straw is properly connected inside the lid and that no part of the straw is blocked or kinked internally. Clean the straw mechanism if there is any blockage.
Water has an unusual taste or odour.
Wash the bottle thoroughly with warm, soapy water and a bottle brush. Ensure all components are rinsed completely. Allow the bottle to air dry completely before use. Avoid storing liquids in the bottle for extended periods.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Initial Wash: Before first use, thoroughly wash the bottle, lid, and straw with warm, soapy water. Rinse well.
- Assembly: Ensure the straw is securely attached to the lid mechanism and the silicone seal is properly seated in the lid.
- Lid Closure: Close the flip-top lid firmly until it clicks to engage the leakproof seal. Ensure the straw cap is also closed.
Compatibility:
- Liquids: Best suited for water. Avoid using with hot liquids (above 60°C/140°F) as this may damage the plastic or compromise the seals. Not recommended for carbonated beverages, as pressure build-up could cause leaks or damage.
- Cleaning Tools: Use a bottle brush for the main body and a straw brush for the internal straw mechanism.
Care Instructions:
- Washing: Hand wash recommended using mild soap and warm water. Do not use abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the plastic or print.
- Dishwasher: While the bottle is made from durable plastic, hand washing is recommended to preserve the integrity of the leakproof seals and time markers. If using a dishwasher, place on the top rack and use a gentle cycle. Ensure all parts are dry before reassembly.
- Drying: Allow all parts to air dry completely before reassembling to prevent mould or mildew growth.
- Storage: Store with the lid slightly ajar or off to allow for ventilation and prevent odours.
