Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your football lasts as long as possible, follow these guidelines:
- Initial Inflation: When inflating for the first time, use a needle lubricated with a drop of silicone oil to prevent damage to the valve.
- Pressure Management: Always inflate to the recommended PSI printed near the valve. Avoid over-inflation to prevent seam stress.
- Storage: Keep the ball in a cool, dry place. Prolonged exposure to extreme heat can degrade the outer shell and internal foam.
- Cleaning: After play on muddy surfaces, wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or submerging the ball in water, as moisture can accumulate inside the bladder.
