UV-sterilization is the process of destroying harmful bacteria and potential viruses that can amass in bottles and become harmful to your health. LIZ uses a 278 nanometer UV-C light which breaks down the DNA of such bacteria and viruses, rendering them harmless.
Notes:
- The sterilization system is not compatible with dark colored liquids since the UV-C light cannot penetrate dark beverages, thus we only recommend sterilizing water.
- If the water temperature is over 60°C/140°F the UV function will not work. The lid's indicator light will flash red to indicate the temperature is too high for sterilization.
