Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup
Before first use, thoroughly wash all parts of your Contigo West Loop Travel Mug. The lid can be placed on the top rack of your dishwasher, while the stainless steel body should be hand washed with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry.
Compatibility
This travel mug is designed to fit most standard car cup holders. Its ergonomic shape also makes it comfortable to hold and carry. While highly versatile, it is not recommended for use in microwaves or freezers.
Care and Maintenance
- Lid Cleaning: The lid is top-rack dishwasher safe. For a deeper clean, the underside of the lid opens completely for easy access to all components. Press the two 'push to clean' buttons to release the mechanism for full access. Ensure all parts are thoroughly rinsed and allowed to dry before reassembling.
- Body Cleaning: Hand wash the stainless steel body with warm, soapy water. Use a bottle brush for thorough cleaning if desired. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scrubbers that could damage the finish.
- Storage: Store the mug with the lid removed or slightly ajar to allow air circulation and prevent odors.
- Do Not Overfill: Always leave space for the lid to seal properly to prevent leaks.
- Avoid Carbonated Beverages: Do not use with carbonated drinks, as pressure buildup can cause leaks or difficulty opening.
