Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: The Camelbak Podium Chill water bottle is ready to use out of the box. Ensure the cap is properly screwed on and the Jet Valve is not obstructed before filling.
Compatibility: This bottle is designed to fit standard bicycle water bottle cages found on most road, mountain, and hybrid bikes. Its dimensions are suitable for typical bottle holder openings.
Care:
- Before First Use: Wash all parts thoroughly with warm water and mild soap. Rinse well.
- Daily Cleaning: After each use, rinse the bottle, nozzle, and cap. Hand washing with warm, soapy water is recommended for best results. Use a bottle brush to clean the interior and a small brush to clean the valve.
- Drying: Allow all parts to air dry completely before reassembly to prevent mold or mildew.
- Dishwasher: While the bottle is top-rack dishwasher safe, hand washing is recommended to preserve the insulation and valve integrity.
- Deep Cleaning: Periodically, remove the nozzle completely (it pulls off) and clean the internal components of the cap and nozzle thoroughly. Ensure all parts are reassembled correctly before next use.
- Storage: Store the bottle with the cap off to allow air circulation and prevent odors.
