Cuff Care and Maintenance
•
The cuff should not be submerged or washed in a washing machine, but may
be spot cleaned with a mild-detergent as needed
•
Never attempt to iron or dry the cuff; if the cuff becomes wet, allow the cuff to
air dry completely before use or storage

it is suggested to disinfect the cuff frequently when used in clinical sittings or if
the cuff is contaminated in any way.
