PACK / RESERVOIR MAINTENANCE

However, some basic pack maintenance will help ensure your pack lasts a lifetime.

OSPREY PACKS
STANDARD MAINTENANCE
+ After each trip is sure to clean out your pack thoroughly.
+ Clean the zippers regularly using mild soap, warm water, and a soft brush. This will help keep them in proper working condition.
+ If your pack is wet, hang it to dry out of direct sunlight.
+ Loosen all the straps.
+ Wash your pack if dirt, sweat, salt, and stains have worked their way into fabrics, webbing or mesh.

WASHING YOUR PACK

OSPREY RESERVOIRS
RESERVOIR STANDARD MAINTENANCE
+ Rinsing out your reservoir after each use should keep your reservoir fresh, especially when using sugary drink mixes.
+ Periodically use Osprey’s Hydraulics™ Cleaning Tablets to clean your reservoir.
+ Iodine or other purifying tablets used in your reservoir will not affect the quality of your reservoir. However, these tablets may stain the reservoir over time.
+ Freezing your reservoir will not affect the quality of the reservoir. However, if the reservoir is filled with water, be aware that water expands when it freezes and can damage your reservoir if it is overfilled.
