Cleaning the Stoppers

The bottle stoppers must be cleaned regularly to ensure optimal operation of the Velmix LQ.

Sweet alcohols tend to clog stoppers. The use of the " Stopper Cap " (AZC-501111) helps to block any air that might enter the stopper, thus reducing the risk of blockage.

Two cleaning methods are described below:

Option 1: Cleaning the stopper on the bottle: to be used if the stopper cannot be removed from the bottle prior to cleaning.

Option 2: Cleaning the stopper with the stopper washer: offers the best results and should be performed every time the bottle is changed.

Cleaning the stopper on the bottle

To clean the stopper while it is on the bottle:

1. Open the hot water tap.
2. Let the hot water run for 1 to 2 minutes over the stopper while rotating the bottle.
   

Cleaning the stopper with the stopper washer

To clean the stopper with the stopper washer:

1. Remove the stopper from the bottle.
2. Install the stopper washer on the tap.
3. Insert stopper into stopper washer.
   
4. Open and run the hot water for a few minutes to rinse the stopper thoroughly.
