The first use instructions are very simple:
- Upon first use, rinse the exterior of the straw with safe drinking water.
- Place the end of the straw with the clear silicone plug into a container of water.
- Begin drinking by sipping water through the colored silicone mouthpiece. The first few sips may take more effort since the microfilter membranes need to fully hydrate.
- After you've finished drinking, it is essential to remove as much water as possible before placing the Sip into the carry case. Blow air through the mouthpiece and give the Sip a gentle shake to expel.
End of life / recyclable
The filter itself is not replaceable. All pieces other than the membrane are recyclable. To recycle, remove the silicone pieces and recycle. Then, to extract the membrane from the straw, drill a hole into the bottom to loosen and remove the membrane - noting that this will damage the filter and render it unsafe so this should only be done when ready to discard the product. Recycle the stainless steel and discard the inner membrane.
Note: the product has a projected lifespan of 1,000 liters, but this is a conservative estimate based on longevity testing with dirty water and maintenance of flow rate.
