Cleaning Your Vibrator Before or After Use:

When getting a new vibrator, it may be helpful to let it air out since it can sometimes have a lacquer/factory smell. In addition, it can be helpful to give it an initial clean with a damp soft cloth or even a shirt.

It is crucial to remember that vibrators are electric which is why you should never immerse the vibe in water. Vibrators are not water-friendly and even the "Waterproof" vibrators should not be kept in water. You may risk burning out the motor, corroding the battery and possibly shorting out your toy! Again, it is important after each use to wipe the vibe down with a damp washcloth or shirt and then dry it off. It can be helpful to use a tiny bit of soap no more than a dime size in the washcloth. Baby wipes can also be used as well as alcohol or hydrogen peroxide mixed with 2/3 water and then placed on a cloth to wipe it down followed by a damp water cloth and then dry.

Before cleaning, always remove the batteries and make sure the electronic compartment is tightly closed.
By following these suggestions, you will keep bacteria from growing on the toy. dry surfaces protect against bacteria and viruses from forming. In addition, it is important to store the vibe in a dry place as well as wrapping it in a bag or plastic to keep it from getting dusty.

It is also important to not have the vibe touching other toys you may have since keeping the toy by itself will keep things more sanitary.

Keeping a Long Working Vibrator

Always make sure you have a fresh supply of batteries for the vibrator. Batteries are key to keeping the vibe charged for maximum enjoyment, no matter on the speed (for those of you with a multi-speed vibe). It is important to not drop your vibrator a lot since the electronic parts can become damaged as well as the vibe cracking, depending on what it is made of. If there is a chord on the vibe, try not to bend or bunch up the chord since you do not want it to short out or become damaged. If the vibrator works inconsistently, you may have a short or bad batteries.

Make sure to turn off your vibrator after use. This will keep the batteries in working order and not short out the vibrator engine.

Using Condoms on a Vibrator

Placing a new condom on a vibrator will keep it the most clean and sanitary. using a condom may ensure that dangerous bacteria does not grow on the toy. It is also important to not use the vibrator in multiple holes at any time without changing the condom (or thoroughly cleaning the vibrator). The best thing to do is have different vibrators for different holes. If you are wanting to partake in anal play, it is important to either place a new condom on the vibrator, have a different vibrator for each hole, or wash the vibrator (using the techniques above) for the most safe use.

By following the above vibrator care suggestions, you will have a long lasting toy for hours of enjoyment!
