How best to use my Series 2 Flip Lid?
Ensure your flip lid is fully assembled with the straw securely attached, fill your bottle with a liquid of your choice (not hot or carbonated) and flip up the nozzle, now your bottle is ready to drink from! Please note these lids are designed to be drunk from like you would with a straw.
Do not tilt the bottle above your mouth while drinking as liquid will escape through the air hole on the other side of the nozzle.
Please note, whilst the Flip Lid is great at preventing major spills, it's not 100% leak-proof. With this in mind, we would advise you to transport your bottle in an upright position using the handy loop, or in the side pocket of a rucksack for example.
* Before using your Flip Lid and Straw for the very first time, make sure to wash it with hot soapy water, and then once the lid and straw are dry, please follow the assembly / disassembly instructions below and you’re good to go!

For a thorough clean or replacing a part:
DISASSEMBLY
For thorough cleaning, you may want to fully disassemble your Flip Lid. Full disassembly is not required for every clean.
- Remove the extendable straw by gently pulling it out of the holder.
- Pull back the spout until you hear a click and remove it from the collar. This may take a bit of force. The spring hinges on the side of the spout may come loose during this action so be careful when doing so!
- Turn the collar upside down and with your finger and push out the inner seal until it detaches.
ASSEMBLY
- Align the inner seal with the air holes on the collar.
- Pinching down the spring hinges with your thumb and forefinger, simultaneously push the spout into place, until you hear a click. Ensure the thumb ridge is facing upwards.
- Gently insert the straw into the holder at the bottom of the collar.
Staining
Please be aware that while our Flip Lids are resistant to normal wear and tear, prolonged exposure to certain ingredients, such as strongly coloured food, beverages, or cosmetics may result in staining over time.
Don't worry though, you should be able to reduce the look of, or in some cases even remove any staining, by giving your lid a thorough clean with a mix of bicarbonate of soda, water and your usual washing up liquid. Mixing these together to create a paste and leaving on any marks for around 60 minutes (or slightly longer if possible) should help to lift some stains or marks and also help to remove any smell or taste.
If you're having trouble removing a stain from your Flip Lid, please reach out to our Customer Service team via the Live Chat widget at the bottom right hand corner or at support@chillys.com who will be happy to help.
