- Unpack and fully unfold the blanket, checking for debris or damage.
- Prioritize insulating the individual's core (torso, head, neck), wrapping to eliminate air gaps.
- Place an insulating layer between the user and the cold ground whenever possible.
- Alternatively, deploy the blanket as an improvised windbreak or lean-to shelter.
- Smother small, emergent fires with the blanket due to its fire-retardant properties.
- After use, ensure the blanket is clean and completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.
