Product Information
Full details
The Larq Water Bottle is an ideal hydration companion for health-conscious professionals, hikers, and travelers who prioritize convenience and water hygiene. By leveraging advanced UVC LED technology, this smart bottle actively eliminates odor-causing bacteria from your water and the bottle's inner surface, ensuring a fresh taste every time. While it offers unparalleled sanitization, users should note that the bottle is designed to purify the water and interior, not to remove chemical contaminants, heavy metals, or physical sediments from untreated sources.

FAQs
Can I put coffee or tea in the bottle?
It is recommended to use the bottle only for water. Other liquids may leave residue or sugar build-up that can obstruct the sensor or negatively affect the UVC effectiveness.
How often does it clean itself?
The bottle automatically activates a 10-second self-cleaning cycle every two hours to keep the interior surface clean.
Is the bottle dishwasher safe?
No, the bottle and cap contain electronic components and should be hand-washed only.
Does it remove sediment or dirt?
No, the UVC technology targets bacteria. It does not act as a mechanical filter to remove physical particles, dirt, or debris.
What happens if the battery dies?
The bottle will continue to function as a regular vacuum-insulated bottle, but the self-cleaning functionality will be disabled until recharged.
Can I use the bottle with hot water?
Yes, the bottle is insulated and safe for hot beverages, though the UVC function is optimized for water purification at room or cold temperatures.
Troubleshooting
Bottle does not activate the cleaning cycle
Ensure the battery is charged and that the cap is properly screwed onto the bottle to complete the contact connection.
Indicator light flashes red
This typically indicates low battery or a potential sensor error; try charging the device fully or restarting the app connection.
