Care & Cleaning

The NCD Pulse and Activation Dock are not waterproof and should never be immersed in water or placed in a dishwasher.
Dropping the NCD Pulse or hitting it against hard surfaces should be avoided, as it may cause damage to the unit.

The propeller should be removed and cleaned internally around the thread depending on the amount of usage. Use a dry cloth or soft brush to remove dirt. We recommend cleaning the NCD Pulse propeller at least once monthly. To remove the propeller, follow these 3 steps:

Holding the top 2 outer rings of the NCD, turn the bottom ring clockwise to loosen until the propeller and bottom ring are removed.
Remove all dirt from the threads and internal surfaces. Use a dry cloth or soft brush.
Screw the pieces back together carefully, ensuring both threads are aligned.
