Cleaning Instructions
Air Therapy Internal Mattress Components
1. Prepare the disinfectant according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.
2. Prepare a separate bucket of warm, fresh water to be used for rinsing the equipment after
cleaning/disinfecting procedures are completed as instructed.
3. Using a clean cloth dampened with the disinfectant solution, wipe all internal mattress surfaces,
including the air cells, and allow to remain wet for the manufacturer’s recommended contact time.
4. Rinse all surfaces of the air cells with fresh water and clean cloth to remove chemical and organic
residue.
5. After cleaning, dry the internal air cells with a clean, dry cloth.
6. After all mattress components are dry, reinstall the top cover.
Store the mattress in a “clean” environment until the next use.
Cleaning Blood and Other Excretions
Blood and other excretions should be wiped up while wet, if possible. These substances are more
difficult to remove once they have dried to surfaces. Dried blood and other excretions are to be removed
using ample disinfectant solution in order to moisten the substance and make it easier to clean.
