SOFT BALLISTIC INSERTS CLEANING
1.
Remove soft ballistic insert assemblies from the casing
assembly.
WARNING
Do not soak soft ballistic inserts or use bleach or starch.
Do not use hot water, high heat, or fabric softener. High
heat will cause shrinkage.
2.
Use only a damp cloth to wipe the soft ballistic insert cover
until clean.
WARNING
Do not leave ballistic aramid cloth exposed to direct
sunlight. Continuous exposure to ultraviolet rays for an
extensive period of time will seriously deteriorate the
soft armor.
3.
Allow to dry in open, well-ventilated area.
