CARTA Sport — How to Clean

Updated May 13, 2025 2 min read

Regular cleaning keeps your CARTA Sport performing at its best. Clean the glass top and atomizer after every few sessions, and do a full clean weekly if you're a regular user.

Cleaning the Glass Top

  1. 1
    Remove the glass top

    Pull straight up and out of the CONNECT. Use upward pressure with a slight sideways motion if it feels snug.

  2. 2
    Soak in isopropyl alcohol

    Submerge the glass top in isopropyl alcohol for a few minutes to loosen residue.

  3. 3
    Rinse with water

    Rinse thoroughly with warm water.

  4. 4
    Air dry

    Let the glass top air dry completely before reinstalling.

Cleaning the Atomizer

  1. 1
    Remove the atomizer

    Turn counterclockwise to unscrew. If it's stuck, run a 15-second session at the lowest temp preset to loosen residue, then try again.

  2. 2
    Soak in isopropyl alcohol

    Submerge the Intelli-Core atomizer in isopropyl alcohol for 10 minutes.

  3. 3
    Do not rinse with water

    Skip the water rinse — water can damage the atomizer. Isopropyl alcohol only.

  4. 4
    Air dry

    Allow the atomizer to air dry for 1–2 hours before reinstalling.

Cleaning the CONNECT

  1. 1
    Remove the CONNECT

    Pull the front edge up, then lift from the center to remove. (See the CONNECT installation guide for details.)

  2. 2
    Wipe with an isopropyl alcohol cloth

    Wipe all surfaces of the CONNECT with an iso-dampened cloth.

  3. 3
    Swab the reclaim channels

    Use a cotton swab dipped in isopropyl alcohol to clean the reclaim channels and airpath interior.

  4. 4
    Air dry before reinstalling

    Let the CONNECT air dry completely before snapping it back into the device.

Reassembly

  1. 1
    Reinstall the CONNECT

    Align the airpath, snap the back end in first, then press the front edge down.

  2. 2
    Reinstall the atomizer

    Thread clockwise until snug. Do not overtighten.

  3. 3
    Reinstall the glass top

    Set it into the CONNECT and press down until seated.
