Never store the pack in hot environments, such as in cars or
direct sunlight.
Never store the pack when wet or in humid environments.

may cause the foam in the shoulder straps or hipbelts to lose
their shape. If you're storing the pack for more than amonth
unused, remove the hipbelt using the instructions on page 23.
If you're checking your pack as luggage on a flight:
•
Remove the hipbelt using the instructions on page 23.

Protect the pack with a large duffel bag, heavy-duty
plastic bag, or other protection to prevent the straps
from being damaged on the conveyor belts.
Wash your pack regularly to remove buildup of dirt or sweat.
Rinse with cold water and let it completely air dry in a shaded
environment. Do not dry in direct sunlight. Do not use soap,
detergents, or other cleaning agents.
