How to activate your cooling vest
- Fill a sink or basin with water. This can be tap water, from a hose or whatever is convenient.
- Place the vest in the water, submerging it for 6-8 seconds. DO NOT OVER SATURATE THE VEST WITH WATER. This will only add unnecessary weight and may make the vest uncomfortable for immediate use.
- After submerging for a few seconds, remove vest from the water gently squeezing out the excess water. DO NOT WRING TIGHTLY.
- If available, use a dry cotton towel or even paper towel to absorb any excess water droplets remaining on the exterior of the vest.
- The vest should be ready for use or may be hung until it is needed within the 48 hour activation period.
Helpful Hints:
You will want to begin to experiment with the amount of seconds that you submerge the vest into water. If you will only need it for a few hours, only a few seconds are needed. If you need the vest for the full 48 hours then the 6-8 seconds will be sufficient as well. It also is helpful but not needed if you can take a towel and roll the vest up into the towel to get off the droplets from the exterior. Remember, when you put on the vest, it will not make your clothes wet, even though it feels that way to the touch. No dripping either!
