Field Application Steps

Inspect canteen and fill with potable water, leaving 1/4 headspace in potential freezing conditions.
Secure canteen inside the insulated cover using the two-button snap closure, confirming positive engagement.
Mount the system to a belt or pack using the integrated belt clip for hands-free carry.
In hot climates, saturate the felt-lined cover with water to enable evaporative cooling.
After use, wash the canteen with soap and water, then air dry completely with the cap off to prevent microbial growth.
