- Isolate body from cold surfaces (ground, vehicle seats) before wrapping.
- Wrap the blanket tightly around the torso, pulling the top edge over the head and neck to prevent critical heat loss.
- Integrate the blanket as an outer layer over existing clothing to trap air and maximize insulative value.
- When sheltering, use the blanket to block drafts and reduce convective heat loss in the immediate environment.
- Inspect for damage after use and ensure it is completely dry before storage to prevent mildew and degradation.
