Using the HydraPak Cleaning Kit is a breeze. First, grab the bristle brush. Its flexible handle allows you to easily reach all parts of your bottle, like the corners, caps, and openings. Scrub gently but thoroughly to remove any dirt or residue. Then, drop the Bottle Bright natural cleaning tablet into your bottle with some water. Let it soak for a while to really clean the inside. After cleaning, use the smart handle. It can pivot into a drying stand, so place your bottle on it for quick and hygienic drying. When you're done, put all the tools back in the nylon mesh storage bag for easy storage. As for maintenance, keep the cleaning tablet in a dry place. Rinse the brush after each use to keep it clean. Avoid using the brush on very rough surfaces as it might damage the bristles.
