1. Clean after each use if you use the Hydro Flask Flip Sip Cap daily, so beverage residue does not build up. This is the manufacturer's recommendation.
2. Start with the flip cap closed. Follow the brand's disassembly diagrams and do not force parts.
3. Pull out the red gasket using its tab, then remove the black fin lever. Keep both small pieces together so they are not lost.
4. Flip open the mouthpiece to clean it thoroughly. The cap may be hand-washed with warm soapy water or washed in a dishwasher according to Hydro Flask. Avoid bleach or chlorine-containing cleaners.
5. Dry the cap, gasket and lever completely before assembly. Avoid storing the lid closed while its parts are damp.
6. Align the red seal's tabs and fully seat it in its channel. Insert the black lever with its post aligned to the hole. Check that everything fits securely and the cap seals before use.
