Using the Avant Pride P4 Power Play Plug is a breeze. First, make sure the surface where you'll use the suction - cup base is clean and flat. Press the base firmly to create a strong hold. Then, slowly insert the plug thanks to its tapered design. When you're done, remove it gently. For maintenance, you can boil the plug in water for a few minutes to sanitize it since it's made of body - safe platinum - cured silicone. Just let it cool down completely before storing. Always check the plug for any signs of damage before each use. And remember, keep it in a cool, dry place when not in use.
