6. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause / Solution |
|---|---|
| Pack does not heat up. | The internal fluid bubble may not have been fully broken. Squeeze firmly again to ensure activation. Ensure the pack is stored and activated within the recommended temperature range (32-86°F). |
| Heat is too intense. | This is normal for instant hot packs. Place a thin cloth or towel between the hot pack and your skin to reduce direct heat intensity. Do not apply directly to broken or irritated skin. |
| Pack leaks or contents spill. | The outer bag has been punctured or damaged. Discontinue use immediately. Do not touch the spilled contents. Dispose of the pack safely and wash hands thoroughly if contact occurs. This product is for external use only. |
| Heat duration is shorter than expected. | Environmental factors (e.g., very cold surroundings) can affect heat duration. Ensure the pack is fully activated and mixed. |
