How do I clean it regularly?
✓ Three steps
Rinse the pump head and straw under warm water to clear residue and prevent buildup inside the nozzle.
If the pump clogs, flush warm water through it until it runs clear.
Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry place between uses to prevent leaks and buildup.
✓ Good habits
A quick warm water rinse keeps the pump mechanism clear and Dishwashing Liquid flowing smoothly. Store the bottle upright between uses.
⚠ Avoid
Don't use strong chemical cleaners on the pump and don't force the pump head when pressing. Both can damage the mechanism.
⚠ Signs of buildup
Slow dispense, inconsistent dose, or sticky pump action usually mean residue has dried inside. Flush warm water through the pump until it runs clear.
