Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare the hydration system, rinse the 2-liter reservoir with warm water and mild soap before the first use. Thread the hydration tube through the designated shoulder strap port to ensure a clean line of access.
For daily care, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove mud or dirt. The backpack should be air-dried in a shaded area; avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as these can degrade the water-resistant coating and damage the structural integrity of the air-flow panel. Periodically check the sternum strap and waist belt buckles for debris to ensure they continue to click securely.
