How to Maintain YOOZ 2nd Gen Devices and Cartridges
As we all know, the YOOZ 2nd Gen requires maintenance during use, but most discussions focus on the maintenance of the device itself, with little mention of the cartridges. So, do cartridges need maintenance? The answer is yes. Whether it's regarding the quality of the cartridges, flavor, or handling issues like leaking, maintenance is necessary. Below, I will introduce several common maintenance methods.
1. Cleaning Steps
1. Remove the cartridge from the device. If you hear gurgling sounds while inhaling or if e-liquid has splashed into your mouth, it indicates that a certain amount of condensation has formed inside the cartridge, which needs to be cleaned promptly. If not addressed, the condensation may flow out through the air outlet or inlet, creating a false impression of "leaking."

2. Secure the cartridge upside down with a clip and place a paper towel underneath the air outlet for about 1-2 minutes.

3. Observe if condensation flows out onto the paper towel and wipe it dry.

4. Use a cotton swab or twist a paper towel into a thin strip and insert it from the air inlet to the bottom.

5. Keep the cotton swab or paper towel inside the air inlet and maintain the upside-down position for about 30 seconds. The condensation on the airway walls and bottom will adhere to the cotton swab or paper towel.

6. Remove the cotton swab or paper towel, reinsert the cartridge into the device, and use it again, perfectly resolving the "leaking" issue.

2. Daily Usage Precautions
1. For friends with refrigerators, it is recommended to refrigerate cartridges that are not in use (the flavor will be a pleasant surprise).
2. Cartridges should be stored in a cool place, out of reach of children and pets, and the device should not be charged in high-temperature environments that cause discomfort to the human body.
3. In hot summer weather, high temperatures can cause cartridges to evaporate and leak. First, wipe the cartridge clean with a paper towel (please refer to the above), shake it a few times with the mouthpiece facing down, and then wipe the mouthpiece clean with a paper towel to basically resolve the issue.
4. If you hear gurgling sounds or feel oil entering your mouth, these phenomena are reminders that you need to clean the cartridge's condensation (please refer to the above).
5. If you feel that you can't finish so many cartridges within a week, try to open them less frequently. If you open one, take a few puffs and leave it, it will lead to leaking, oxidation, and flavor change.
6. When traveling by plane or high-speed train, pay attention to the liquid carrying capacity. Normally, you cannot carry excessive amounts. The YOOZ 2nd Gen cartridge is 2.5ml, which is fine, but it is still recommended to store the device and cartridges separately. Especially on planes, be sure to remove the cartridge and pack it up, as pressure changes can easily cause leaking.
7. It is advisable to develop a habit of regular maintenance. Every day, remove the device and cartridge and wipe them with a paper towel, then wipe the contact points of the cartridge and device. This can prevent the accumulation of disconnections and leaking caused by condensation. Regular maintenance can effectively reduce leaking issues.
