USE AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR SET-UP
This is a unique material designed for heavy duty, high frequency use.
The material is designed to keep the shape it was stored in, and will become flexible with heat. Upon unboxing, unroll the mat and lie flat (preferably outside) in the sun or a warm environment. As the mat heats, the material will become flexible and bend easily in to the preferred state. Remember, whatever shape the mat cools off in is the shape it will keep! Ensure your mat is lying completely flat as it is cooling off in order to keep the crisp flat shape.
