While Aqua's battery compartment is designed
to be highly water-resistant, it is not waterproof.
Avoid submerging Aqua's battery end in water.

by cold weather. In temperatures below 32ºF/0ºC carry
the unit close to your body or warm up batteries before
use. If batteries are too cold, Aqua's LED indicator may
give low battery signal. Warm up batteries and treat
again.
Make sure to wipe dry after each use.
When not in use, Aqua should be kept in a safe
place that is clean and dry. It should not be exposed
to temperatures above 120°F/49°C or below -4°F/-20°C.
Also, when storing for long periods of time, remove
batteries to keep them from inadvertantly draining.
To clean Aqua, wash with a soft cloth and a mild
soap solution. Rinse soap from device and dry with
a clean, soft cloth.
If Aqua's bulb is cracked, chipped or damaged,
don't use it. Return it to the store or contact Steripen
