- Medium Tyv -- Soft silicone -- T-5823: This toy cannot stand on its own unless it has a firm base. The stem under the knot is too narrow to support the top. When drying or storing, lay it flat rather than standing it upright to avoid warping or damage.
Handling Your Tyv Safely
- Support the knot and shaft: Because the stem under the knot is narrow, always support the heavier top when picking up or moving the toy. Avoid gripping only the stem.
- Mind the soft silicone: Soft (0030) silicone is more prone to nicks and tears than firmer versions. Keep it away from sharp objects and rough surfaces.
- Check the base texture: The base has a textured fur pattern. This is part of the design, but it can trap debris, so clean it thoroughly.
Cleaning Your Tyv
The supplied information does not include specific cleaning instructions for this toy. However, because it is made of silicone, you can follow general safe practices for silicone toys: wash with mild soap and warm water, and avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers. Always check the store's policies for any additional guidance.
Pay special attention to the vertical textures on the shaft and the textured fur base, as these areas can hold onto residue. Rinse thoroughly after washing.
Storing Your Tyv
Since the Medium Tyv cannot stand on its own, store it flat on a clean, dry surface. Avoid placing heavy items on top of it, as soft silicone can deform. Keep it away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, which can damage silicone over time.
If you store it in a bag or container, make sure it is completely dry first to prevent mold or mildew. The supplied information does not specify a storage method, so these are general precautions.
What the Supplied Information Does Not Cover
The product record does not include specific cleaning agents, lubrication compatibility, or body-safe usage instructions. For questions about safe use, consult the store's policies or contact customer support. Always follow general silicone toy safety guidelines.
