When you are ready to use your InstaWarmer pack, lay it on a surface and grasp the metal
activator disk (located in one corner of the pack) between both thumbs. Click it a few times to
activate the phase change and generate heat. You will hear a clicking sound. The liquid in the
pack will begin turning into a solid. You will feel warmth in seconds. Knead the InstaWarmer
for 30 seconds to evenly distribute the thermal buffer before using the InstaWarmer in the
IncuBlanket. If you experience any difficulty in activating the InstaWarmer pack, roll the pack
starting from the end opposite the activator, to force the phase-change liquid into the space
around the activator disk. Then click the disk again.
