1.
Ensure all soft ballistic insert assemblies have been removed.
2.
Remove loose dirt from hook and pile fastener and outer cover
surface using a cloth or soft brush. Do not use a stiff bristle
brush.

Fasten the hook and pile to prevent entangling with other
articles.
WARNING
JP-5 fuel, grease or other combustibles embedded in
casing assembly fabric will burn at their normal flash
points even though the aramid cloth will not burn until a
higher temperature is reached. Be sure the casing
assembly is thoroughly clean and free of combustibles
prior to further use. Machine wash or hand wash as
necessary with mild detergent and warm water.
CAUTION
Do not use hot water, high heat, or fabric softener. High
heat will cause shrinkage.
