Read water ratings by component
Check the body, charger and remote separately.
Treat each component separately
A water claim for the device doesn’t establish a rating for the remote, cable or charging contacts. If an IP code or waterproof statement is missing, read the manual rather than assuming a part can be submerged.
Check the seams before cleaning
Follow the manufacturer’s cleaning instructions. For removable inserts, battery caps and contacts, confirm what detaches, what stays dry and how to dry each part before storage or charging.
Check lubricant and sharing instructions
Water-based lubricant is a practical starting point; use the manufacturer’s compatibility guidance. Clean the device between uses and change any barrier before sharing or switching body areas. Planned Parenthood’s toy safety guide explains why these steps matter.
