Setup, Compatibility & Care
There is no specific 'setup' required for the Helly Hansen Salt Original Sailing Jacket; it's ready to wear. However, following the care instructions is vital for maintaining its performance.
Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash the jacket in lukewarm water (40°C), using a mild detergent.
- Avoid: Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as they can damage the waterproof membrane.
- Drying: Tumble dry on low heat, or hang to dry. If tumble drying, it can help reactivate the durable water-repellent (DWR) treatment.
- Re-Waterproofing: If water stops beading on the surface, re-apply a DWR treatment. Follow the product instructions for the DWR treatment.
- Storage: Store the jacket in a dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
