Care and Cleaning Guide
To ensure your Teedons water bottle stays in top condition, it’s important to regularly clean and maintain it. Proper care will extend its lifespan and keep it ready for use, maintaining hygiene and functionality. Follow these simple and effective tips for keeping your Teedons bottle in pristine condition.
Everyday Care for Your Teedons Bottle
1. Preparation Before First Use:
Before using your Teedons water bottle for the first time, remove any inserts or tags from the product. Thoroughly wash both the bottle and all components, including the lid and straw, to ensure they are clean and free of any packaging residues.
2. Avoid Extreme Temperatures:
To preserve the integrity of your Teedons bottle, do not place it in the microwave or freezer. Exposing your bottle to extreme temperatures could damage both the appliance and the bottle itself, affecting its insulation capabilities.
3. Ensure Proper Lid Sealing:
Always check that the lid is properly screwed on or pressed down before use to prevent leaks. Additionally, be cautious when drinking hot beverages—do not overfill the bottle as this could lead to spills or burns.
4. Handle with Care for Hot & Carbonated Drinks:
When opening hot or carbonated beverages, exercise caution. These drinks can create pressure inside the bottle, which could lead to spills or splashes if not opened carefully.
Cleaning Your Teedons Bottle
1. First Wash:
After purchase, wash your Teedons water bottle before its first use. Follow the care instructions specific to your bottle, and ensure that it is clean and ready for use.
2. Regular Cleaning:
After each use, wash your bottle thoroughly. If your bottle is dishwasher safe, place it in the top rack of your dishwasher, away from the heating element. Important: Before placing your bottle in the dishwasher, check the bottom of the bottle to ensure it’s dishwasher-safe. If unsure, refer to the product label or user guide for confirmation.
3. Hand Washing:
If your bottle is not dishwasher safe, use warm water and mild dish soap to hand wash it. For thorough cleaning, use a professional bottle brush to clean the inside and around the bottle’s neck and bottom. Once cleaned, rinse the bottle thoroughly and leave it to air dry in a well-ventilated area.
4. Removing Stubborn Stains:
If your bottle has stubborn stains from coffee, tea, or other beverages, you can try using professional Cleaning Tablets. Simply add one tablet to warm water, let it soak for 15 minutes, and then rinse thoroughly. This will help remove stains and leave your bottle fresh.
Deep Cleaning Tips
For a deeper clean or to tackle any persistent stains, you can use the following household ingredients to thoroughly clean your Teedons bottle:
What You’ll Need:
• White vinegar
• Baking soda
• Water
Instructions:
1. Mix equal parts white vinegar and water in your bottle, then add 1 tablespoon of baking soda. Let the mixture sit overnight.
2. The next day, pour out about three-quarters of the mixture and add another tablespoon of baking soda.
3. Using your professional bottle brush, scrub the inside of the bottle thoroughly, paying close attention to the bottom and neck. Rinse thoroughly with warm water, then allow the bottle to air dry.
Storage and Maintenance
1. Store Lids Separately:
To maintain freshness and prevent any odour build-up, it’s recommended to store the lid separately from the bottle. This allows air to circulate and ensures your bottle dries properly.
2. Avoid Sealing for Long Periods:
Do not leave the bottle tightly sealed for extended periods, as this can trap moisture and lead to unpleasant odours or bacteria growth inside.
