Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
This fire blanket is designed for immediate deployment in an emergency. It does not require complex setup. Ensure it is stored in an easily accessible location where it can be retrieved quickly.
Compatibility:
Primarily designed for electric and hybrid vehicle battery packs. Its high temperature resistance makes it suitable for use in environments where high-heat incidents are possible.
Care:
- Storage: Store the blanket in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight and corrosive substances. Keep it in its original packaging or a dedicated fire blanket storage bag if available.
- Inspection: After every storage period and especially after any potential fire event, carefully inspect the blanket for any signs of damage. Look for tears, punctures, charring, stiffening, or discoloration of the material.
- Cleaning: If the blanket has been exposed to smoke or dust but not fire, it can be gently wiped with a damp cloth. Do not machine wash or use harsh detergents, as this can compromise the silicone coating.
- Reuse: A fire blanket should be treated as a safety consumable. If the blanket shows ANY signs of heat degradation or mechanical damage, it must be replaced immediately. Even if no visible damage is apparent after a fire, consider its integrity compromised and opt for a new blanket for future safety.
