Troubleshooting
Bottle leaks
Ensure the cap is screwed on tightly. Check the cap's seal for any debris or damage. If the bottle itself is cracked, it needs replacement.
Cover's press stud is difficult to fasten/unfasten
This is normal for new items. Press the stud firmly to engage. If it remains excessively stiff after several uses, a small amount of silicone lubricant can be applied sparingly to the stud mechanism.
ALICE clips won't stay attached to gear
Ensure you are attaching to a stable surface like a belt or a sturdy backpack strap. For less rigid gear, consider using additional straps or a carabiner for extra security.
Water develops an odor
Thoroughly clean the bottle with warm, soapy water and baking soda. Rinse thoroughly and air dry completely with the cap off. Storing with the cap off can prevent odors.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Initial Cleaning: Before first use, wash the bottle and cover thoroughly with mild soap and water. Rinse well and allow to air dry completely.
Attaching the Cover: Place the bottle into the nylon cover, ensuring it fits snugly. Secure the cover using the press stud fastening.
Attachment: Utilize the two metal ALICE clips on the back of the cover to attach it to your belt, backpack strap, or any MOLLE-compatible gear.
Compatibility:
The bottle is designed to fit within its specific cover. While other 1L bottles might fit, optimal performance and security are achieved with the original bottle.
ALICE clips are compatible with most standard belts and many older-style military gear. For modern MOLLE systems, adapters may be needed.
Care:
Bottle: Hand wash with warm, soapy water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the plastic. Not recommended for hot beverages or microwave use.
Cover: Spot clean with a damp cloth. For heavier soiling, use mild soap and water, rinse, and allow to air dry completely. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
Storage: Store the bottle with the cap off and the cover unfastened in a cool, dry place to prevent odor buildup and ensure adequate ventilation.
