Yes as Liz pointed out, hang dry it. You don't want to dry anything with heat (in the dryer) because it will ruin the waterproofing.

I spot cleaned this jacket with a bit of soap and water. From experience use a dry detergent to wash any waterproofing materials, then hang dry. Avoid fabric softners and liquid detergents because it breaks down the fabric. I use nikwax if I have killed my garments. http://www.nikwax.com/en-gb/products/productdetail.php?productid=4

You should be able to machine wash cold with mild detergent. There doesn't appear to be material in the jacket that will be ruined from washing it. And it does come equipped with a lifetime warranty, meaning it's built tough, and you could probably wash it and be just fine.
