Care of your TENOR
For information on service and maintenance
contracts, please contact your local Arjo
distributor.
Slings
With regard to laundering, the sling should not
be classified as linen, but as an accessory to a
resident transfer lifter and therefore classified as
a medical device. Slings should be cleaned and
disinfected only in strict accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
It is essential that resident lifters, equipment,
accessories and slings supplied by Arjo are regu-
larly cleaned and/or disinfected between each
resident use if necessary, or daily as a minimum.
If the slings, lifters and equipment need cleaning
or are suspected of being contaminated, follow
the cleaning and/or disinfection procedures
below, before re-using the equipment. This is
especially important when using the same equip-
ment for another resident to minimize the risk of
cross infection.
Environmental Advice
When disposing of any items associated with the
equipment, contact the appropriate local
authority for advice.
CAUTION
The sling should be checked before
and after using with each resident and
if necessary, washed according to the
instructions on the sling. Also refer to
the sling instruction sheet.
VARNING
Mechanical pressure should be
avoided during the washing and drying
procedure e.g. rolling and pressing, as
these can damage parts vital to the
safe and comfortable operation of the
sling.
CAUTION
Washing and drying procedures must
not exceed 90°C (194°F). Wash using
normal detergents, do not iron. Also
refer to the sling instruction sheet.
WARNING
When using your sling, always read
“the Guidelines on the use of your
sling” that are delivered with the sling.
