Rynox Reload Hydration Bladder

Step 1 - Prep

• Undo all zippers, velcro, straps and buckles.
• Separate all detachable drybags and/or layers (wash each piece separately).
• Shake off any surface dirt.
• Use a soft brush if required.
• Wipe clean with a damp microfiber cloth.

Step 2 - Which Detergent?

Use (in order of preference):

• Purpose-made tech-wash
• Neutral, unscented liquid detergent
• Woollen liquid detergent
• Baby shampoo

Completely Avoid:

• Any type of granular powder detergent
• Any type of heavily scented liquid detergent
• Any type of fabric softener or bleach

Step 3 - Soak

• Dissolve 1 to 2 caps of detergent in a bucket of water per unit of luggage.
• Soak for at least 30 minutes.
• Avoid hot water — if it's too hot for your hand, it's too hot for your luggage.

Step 4 - Wash and Rinse

• Agitate and scrub with your hands, inside and outside, focusing on grease and grime.
• Repeat until clean.
• Rinse multiple times until completely free of detergent.
• Avoid hard, abrasive brushes; use a soft brush if required.

Step 5 - Drip Dry

• Drip dry and place upside down to let water drain out.
• Do not machine dry, use a hair dryer, or any heating device.
• Do not expose to direct sunlight while wet.

Step 6 - Storage

• Store in a cool, dry, ventilated place away from direct sunlight.
• Do not store while damp or wet — dry completely before storage.
• Clean thoroughly before long-term storage.
