Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Nalgene bottle, rinse it thoroughly before first use. While the bottle is dishwasher safe, placing it on the top rack is recommended to avoid high-heat contact with heating elements. If you prefer hand washing, use a bottle brush and mild dish soap. The bottle is compatible with most standard hydration accessories and filter caps that feature a universal wide-mouth thread pattern. Ensure the cap is screwed on completely until you feel it click or tighten securely to maintain the leak-proof seal. Do not use the bottle in a microwave, and avoid storing high-pressure carbonated beverages that could compromise the cap integrity.
