Cherroly Safe Use & Care Instructions
Thank you for your purchase! Your Cherroly® hot/cold pad product is not a toy and requires adult supervision at all times. Use it at your
discretion after reading the instructions below:
TO HEAT: Check your microwave power setting before heating your product. If using your heating pad for the first time, start by
microwaving it at half of the recommended time. Visually inspect the product and cautiously check its temperature by touch before
continuing. If you need to, continue to heat it with caution. If your microwave has a turntable (carousel), you may need to bend or fold the
product ensuring that it fits well on the turntable and stays intact while it rotates. The product must be heated evenly to help avoid
excessive heat on a given area. Determine the recommended heating time for your product based on the chart below:
| Product Size | Max. Heating Time (based on 1000 watts) |
| PETITE (6 ½ x 21 inch) | 2 1/2 minutes |
| SMALL (8 x 12 inch) | 2 mins |
| MEDIUM (8 x 24 inch) | 4 minutes |
| LARGE (8 x 33 inch) | 5 1/2 minutes |
| EYE COMPRESS | 40 seconds |
NOTE: Our recommendations are based on using samples of our products after heating them on High setting using a 1.7 cubic ft household microwave that is equipped with a turntable and rated at 1,000 watts of maximum cooking power. Your product may need
more or less than the recommended time depending on your microwave’s power setting and your desired temperature.
IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNING: Do Not Burn Your Product! Although your Cherroly® heating pad consists of materials that have high resistance to heat, it was never treated with flame retardants. Therefore, if subjected to a relatively excessive heat and other conditions that encourage combustion, it is quite possible to burn the product. To help avoid burning your product and catching fire in the microwave, ensure that the entire product fits inside your microwave, and heat it evenly. Before microwaving it, ensure that it is dry AND free of grease, food, and any other foreign material that can aid the product to burn. If the microwave is also used to heat or cook food, ensure that the microwave is kept clean before and after each use. Placing your product on a clean plate each time is an option
Risk of burns. This product can cause burns if overheated or used improperly. Never apply directly to eyelids or sensitive skin. Rather, always test temperature on another area of skin before use.
