FAQs
Is the Contigo West Loop mug truly leak-proof?
Yes, its patented AUTOSEAL technology automatically seals the drinking spout between sips, preventing spills and leaks. Engaging the `lid-lock` feature provides an extra layer of security during transport.
How do I clean the lid?
The lid is designed for easy cleaning. It is top-rack dishwasher safe. If hand washing, hinge open the mechanism completely (by sliding the small lever) and rinse thoroughly under running water to ensure all internal parts are clean.
Can I put the mug body in the dishwasher?
No, the stainless steel body should only be hand washed to preserve its vacuum insulation properties and exterior finish. The lid, however, is dishwasher safe.
How long does it keep drinks hot or cold?
Thanks to its Thermalock double-wall vacuum insulation, this mug keeps drinks hot for up to 5 hours and cold for up to 12 hours.
Does it fit in car cup holders?
Yes, the Contigo West Loop is specifically designed with dimensions that allow it to fit in most common car cup holders, making it an excellent travel companion.
What is the capacity of this mug?
This specific Contigo West Loop mug has a capacity of 470ml.
Can I use it for carbonated drinks?
It is generally not recommended to use vacuum-insulated mugs, including the Contigo West Loop, with carbonated beverages. Pressure can build up inside, potentially causing the lid to eject or leak, or making it difficult to open safely.
Troubleshooting
Beverage not staying hot/cold as long as expected
Ensure the lid is screwed on tightly and correctly aligned. Make sure the AUTOSEAL button is fully released and not stuck in an open position. Check if the mug body has any significant dents, which could compromise the vacuum insulation.
Lid feels sticky or hard to clean
Completely open the lid's hinged mechanism for cleaning. Locate the small lever on the underside of the lid and slide it to unlock the mechanism, allowing it to pivot open fully. Rinse thoroughly under warm water, using a small brush if needed, to remove all beverage residue. The lid is also top-rack dishwasher safe for a deep clean.
Mug is leaking
Verify the lid is securely tightened onto the mug body. Check that the AUTOSEAL button is not accidentally pressed and that the `lid-lock` feature is engaged when transporting. Inspect the silicone gasket and O-rings within the lid for any damage, tears, or misalignment that could prevent a proper seal.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup
Before first use, wash the lid thoroughly in the dishwasher (top-rack) or by hand.
Hand wash the stainless steel body with warm, soapy water.
Rinse all components completely and allow them to air dry before first use.
Filling Your Mug
Unscrew the lid from the body.
Pour your desired beverage, ensuring you do not overfill past the threading to allow the lid to seal properly.

Compatibility
Car Cup Holders: The Contigo West Loop is designed to fit in virtually all standard car cup holders, making it a perfect travel companion.
Backpacks: Thanks to its `AUTOSEAL` and `lid-lock` features, it can be safely carried in most backpack side pockets or even inside the main compartment without fear of leaks, provided the lid-lock is engaged.
Care and Maintenance
Lid Cleaning: The lid is top-rack dishwasher safe. For hand washing, open the lid mechanism fully by sliding the small lever to the 'open' position and rinse thoroughly under running water, ensuring all beverage residue is removed. This design allows for complete cleaning of all internal components.
Body Cleaning: The stainless steel body should be hand washed only. Use warm, soapy water and a bottle brush if necessary. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scrubbers. Do not submerge the body in water for extended periods, as this can affect the vacuum insulation.
Drying: Always ensure all parts are completely dry before reassembling or storing to prevent odors or mold. Store the lid and body separately if possible, or with the lid slightly ajar, to allow air circulation.
