How does one activate a Cooling Towel (CT product)?
-
Soak 2-3 hours
-
Run under water 2-3 minutes
-
Run under water 1 minute
-
Put in the freezer 2-3 hours
Correct Answer
A. Run under water 1 minuteExplanation
To activate a Cooling Towel (CT product), one needs to run it under water for 1 minute. This process allows the towel to absorb water and activate its cooling properties. By wetting the towel, it becomes moist and can provide a cooling effect when applied to the body. Soaking it for 2-3 hours or running it under water for 2-3 minutes may not be necessary and could potentially make the towel too wet or saturated. Putting it in the freezer for 2-3 hours would likely make the towel too cold and rigid, making it less effective for its intended purpose.Rate this question:
