6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your neck pillow, refer to the following common solutions:

• Pillow feels too firm/soft: Memory foam density is fixed. Allow a few uses for the foam to adapt to your body temperature and shape.
• Pillow does not fit comfortably: Adjust the front clasp to loosen or tighten the fit around your neck. Ensure the pillow is centered.
• Hood feels too tight/loose: The hood is designed for a universal fit. Adjust its position on your head for optimal comfort.
• Pillow has an odor: New memory foam products may have a slight odor upon unboxing. This is normal and will dissipate within a few days of airing out in a well-ventilated area.
