- Spread the poncho flat on the ground, making sure that the hood opening is tightly closed and is on the groundside.
- Place liner on poncho, matching the tie laces on liner with the grommets on the poncho and tie together.
- If the poncho and liner combination is to be used as a sleeping bag, snap the sides of poncho together along their entire length and tuck the foot end under to keep the feet from sticking out. CAUTION: Do not fasten the snap fasteners together when used as sleeping bag in combat areas; it cannot be opened quickly.
- Poncho and liner combination can be used as a warp-around sleeping bag or as a blanket.
- The liner, without the poncho, can be used as blanket when sleeping under cover or in a jungle hammock.
- Keep liner away from open fire and spark. DO NOT SMOKE in bed when using liner as a blanket or sleeping bag.
- When necessary, liner can be hand laundered. Use a mild soap and lukewarm water. Do not boil.
- Do not dry clean.
