When using a lotion pump, you should generally follow these steps to ensure proper, hygienic, and efficient product removal:
1. Preparation Before First Use
Check the seal: New lotion pumps typically have a sealing ring or locking tab (such as a plastic ring or snap on the bottle neck) to prevent leakage during transport. For first use, unscrew the pump head, remove the sealing ring or unlocking tab, and then reattach the pump head.
Press to release air: Some lotion pumps require multiple presses (5-10 times) to release the product. This is because the pump head tubing is initially empty and pressure needs to be built up.
2. Normal Use
Pressing the pump head:
Single press: Press the pump head vertically downward to dispense the desired amount of product (usually the amount dispensed per press is designed for a single use).
Multiple presses: Repeat for a larger amount.
Applying the product: The lotion will be squeezed out of the pump head outlet and can be dispensed directly onto the palm of your hand, a cotton pad, or your fingertips.
3. Post-Use Precautions
Cleaning the Pump Outlet: After use, wipe the pump outlet with a tissue to remove any residue to prevent the lotion from drying out and clogging the outlet.
Locking Feature (if available): Some lotion pumps have a twist-lock design. After use, rotate the pump head to the "locked" position (usually the pump head will sink or become inoperable) to prevent accidental pressurization and leakage.
4. Troubleshooting
No Liquid:
Check that the seal has been released.
Press the pump several times to try to release the air.
Check for a broken straw or insufficient product in the bottle (til the bottle or refill the bottle).
Leaking: Ensure the pump head is tightened or check the bottle threads for proper alignment.
5. Other Tips
Applicable Products: Lotion pumps are suitable for medium-flowing liquids (such as lotions, shower gels, shampoos, etc.). Excessively viscous products may cause difficulty in pumping.
Refills: After use, refills of the same size are available for environmental and economical use.
Proper use of the lotion pump can extend its lifespan and maintain product hygiene. If you encounter a specially designed pump head (such as a foam pump, spray pump, etc.), the principle is similar, but you may need to operate it more gently.
