1. Inspect the bottle — Check for glass chips or cracks, damaged stopper, seal and wire. Do not keep using broken glass.
2. Empty leftovers — Pour out remaining drinks and open the closure to inspect contact surfaces. Discard contents that have spoiled.
3. Choose a wash method — This SKU is dishwasher-safe up to 70°C according to IKEA. For handwashing, use a bottle brush and mild dish soap.
4. Clean the neck and seal — Gently remove residue around the seal and wire, then rinse thoroughly. Do not force apart parts without disassembly guidance.
5. Air-dry fully — Leave the closure open in a ventilated place until internal moisture has evaporated. Avoid sealing the bottle while wet.
6. Avoid thermal shock — Never move a room-temperature bottle directly into boiling water. Prewarm with warm water before hot contents and observe IKEA's maximum 50°C temperature-change warning.
