Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: Unpack the sleeping bag and allow it to expand fully before use. For optimal warmth, ensure the mummy hood is snug around your head.
Compatibility: This sleeping bag is designed for general camping and backpacking use. It is compatible with standard sleeping mats. It is not designed for extreme mountaineering or arctic conditions.
Care:
- Cleaning: Spot clean minor dirt with a damp cloth. For a full wash, use a front-loading washing machine on a gentle cycle with cold water and a mild soap specifically designed for technical outdoor gear. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach.
- Drying: Never machine dry. Air dry the sleeping bag completely. Hang it over a clothesline or lay it flat in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight. Ensure it is thoroughly dry before storing to prevent mildew.
- Storage: Store the sleeping bag loosely in its original stuff sack or a large mesh bag. Avoid long-term compression storage, as this can damage the insulation and reduce its loft and thermal efficiency.
