Caution: For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. If product gets into the eyes rinse well with water immediately. Discontinue use if irritation occurs. Directions: Before using a hot water bottle, check it for cracks, splits, brittleness, breaks and other damage. Heat the water in a kettle using cold tap water. Do not fill the bottle with water from the hot water tap, which can cause the rubber to perish. Do not use boiling water. If the water is very hot (>90°C), add cold water from the tap. Hold the hot water bottle upright, over the sink and away from your body when filling it. Pour water into the bottle slowly until it is two-thirds full. Remove excess air from the bottle before closing it. To do this, lower the bottle slowly towards a lying position on a flat surface. When you see water at the opening, put in the stopper and tighten it. Always use a cover or wrap a towel around the bottle to prevent contact burns. Only use a hot water bottle to warm the bed. Remove the bottle before you get into bed and empty it or place it out of reach. Never use hot water bottles where babies or children may come into contact with them. Never use a damaged hot water bottle—throw it away and get a new one. Never use a hot water bottle in a bed fitted with an electric blanket. Never lean on, roll on, press against or lie on a hot water bottle. Never place a hot water bottle in a microwave or ordinary oven.
