Care & Maintenance
- Cleaning: After each use, empty the cooler. Wipe down the interior and exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn stains, a non-abrasive cleaner can be used.
- Drying: Ensure the cooler is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew and odors. Leave the lid slightly ajar during storage to allow air circulation.
