Zojirushi AHGB10S 1L SS Flask

1. **Preparation**: Before using the flask for the first time, wash it with warm, soapy water and rinse thoroughly. This ensures that the flask is clean and ready for use.

2. **Preparing Beverage**: Prepare the beverage you want to store in the flask. This can be hot coffee, tea, soup, or cold water, juice, or other beverages.

3. **Filling Flask**: Open the lid of the flask by twisting it counterclockwise. Pour the prepared beverage into the flask, being careful not to overfill it. Leave some space at the top to prevent spills when closing the lid.

4. **Securing Lid**: Once the flask is filled, securely close the lid by twisting it clockwise until it's tightly sealed. Ensure that the lid is properly closed to maintain the temperature of the beverage and prevent leaks.

5. **Temperature Control**: If you're storing a hot beverage, you can preheat the flask by filling it with hot water for a few minutes before pouring in the hot beverage. Similarly, if you're storing a cold beverage, you can pre-chill the flask by filling it with cold water before adding the beverage.

6. **Transporting**: Once the flask is filled and sealed, it's ready to be transported. Place it in your bag, backpack, or carrying case, ensuring that it's upright to prevent spills.

7. **Enjoying Beverage**: When you're ready to enjoy your beverage, open the lid of the flask and pour the drink into a cup or directly into your mouth, depending on your preference. The flask's pour spout makes it easy to pour without removing the lid completely.

8. **Cleaning**: After use, wash the flask with warm, soapy water and rinse thoroughly. Allow it to air dry with the lid removed to prevent moisture buildup. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scrubbing pads, as they may damage the stainless steel surface.

9. **Storing**: Store the flask with the lid off to allow airflow and prevent odors from developing. Store it in a cool, dry place when not in use.

By following these steps, you can effectively use the Zojirushi AHGB10S 1L SS Flask to keep your beverages hot or cold while on the go.
