FAQs

How long should I microwave the Warmies Penguin?

For most standard microwaves (600-1000W), start with 1 minute. If more heat is needed, microwave in additional 30-second intervals, checking the temperature carefully each time. Do not exceed recommended heating times.

Can I wash the Warmies Penguin in the washing machine?

No, Warmies must *not* be immersed in water or machine washed. They should only be surface cleaned with a lightly damp cloth.

How often can I reheat the penguin?

The Warmies Penguin can be reheated many times. Ensure it cools down completely to room temperature before reheating again to prevent overheating.

What is the purpose of the lavender scent?

The lavender scent is infused to provide a calming and relaxing aromatherapy experience, enhancing the soothing qualities of the warm toy.

Is the Warmies Penguin safe for babies?

Yes, Warmies are suitable for all ages, including babies. However, always ensure the toy is at a comfortably warm temperature, not hot, before giving it to an infant.

How long does the warmth last?

The duration of warmth can vary depending on microwave time and ambient temperature, but it is designed to provide comforting warmth for a significant period, typically up to an hour.

What happens if I overheat the penguin?

Overheating can damage the filling and potentially the fabric. Always follow recommended heating times and test the temperature before use. If overheating occurs, let it cool completely before attempting to reheat again, potentially with reduced time.

Troubleshooting

Penguin does not heat up sufficiently.

Ensure the microwave wattage is appropriate and the heating time is adequate. Reheat for an additional 30 seconds if necessary, checking temperature carefully. Ensure the penguin is not overused between heatings.

Penguin feels too hot after microwaving.

Allow the penguin to cool down for a few minutes before handling. Always test the temperature carefully before use, especially for children. Reduce the initial microwaving time if this is a recurring issue.

Lavender scent is not noticeable.

The scent is designed to be subtle and may fade over time with repeated heating and use. It cannot be reapplied. Ensure the penguin is not stored in an airtight container, which can preserve the scent.

Surface cleaning leaves marks.

Use only a *lightly damp* cloth and mild soap if absolutely necessary. Wipe gently and allow to air dry completely. Avoid rubbing too vigorously.
