7.4 Cleaning
NOTICE
Improper cleaning of the wheelchair seat cushion
Risk of damage to seat cushion due to user error
► Do not wash the lateral inserts, Floam cells or foam base in the washing machine.
► Do not dry the seat cushion and its components in the tumble dryer.
► Gently wipe the surface of the lateral inserts, Floam cells and foam base with a soft, damp
cloth or sponge; do not rub. Do not use a brush or similar on the surface.
Do not wash the covers at a temperature higher than specified. The covers can shrink when
►
washed at higher temperatures. This could impede the seat cushion's ability to redistribute
pressure and damage the fabric.
► Do not use any bleaching agents or fabric softeners for cleaning.
INFORMATION
► In case of advanced wear and tear, replace the components that are available as spare
parts.
► To disinfect the cover, add a standard hygiene detergent during washing.
► In case of heavy incontinence, an additional incontinence cover should be used. Please
observe the care and cleaning instructions for the incontinence cover.
Clean the product every month.
