CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the Upholstery
When cleaning upholstery, it is suggested that you use all
recommended commercial cleaning agents in an inconspicu-
ous spot to check for potential damage to the upholstery
material before applying to the entire area to be cleaned.
Day to Day soil:
Remove ordinary dirt and smudges with a mild soap and
warm water solution. Dry with a soft, lint-free cloth or towel.
For more difficult stains, use of a stronger detergent is
recommended; however, follow the detergent manufacturer’s
instructions closely.
Disinfecting Material:
In order to disinfect, use a 1:9 solution of bleach and water (1
part bleach to 9 parts water). Wipe surface with damp cloth
then rinse with water immediately, using a damp cloth.
Special cleaning problems:
The following methods are recommended to clean stains
on PreFixx-protected vinyl upholstery. Most stains will be
removed when these cleaning agents are used in the fol-
lowing order.
Type 1 Cleaners: Nonabrasive household cleaners to be
used with water and a soft cloth.
• Formula 409~ All-Purpose Spray Cleaner
• Fantastik® Spray Cleaner
• Other similar household cleaners and bleaches
Type 2 Cleaners: Solvent-type cleaner to be liberally
applied with a soft cloth. Dry area with another cloth, rinse
with clean water and dry.
• Rubbing alcohol (isopropyl alcohol)
• Lighter fluid (naptha)
Type 3 Cleaners: Strong, active solvent cleaners such as
nail polish remover (acetone/water) to be applied with a soft
cloth. Stain should be removed with less than six (6) rubs; if
stain persists after six rubs, contact manufacturer. Dry area
with another cloth, rinse with clean water and dry.
CAUTION- These solvents are highly
flammable. Exercise proper care in cleaning
and notify personnel in area of danger. Wear
rubber gloves during all cleaning activity. Use
caution in cleaning around buttons, stitching
and wooden or other decorative trim, since
these solvents could seriously damage such
areas.
PRÉCAUTION : Ces solvants sont
extrêmement inflammables. Faites très
attention lors du nettoyage et avisez le
personnel dans la zone de tout danger.
Portez des gants de caoutchouc durant toute
activité de nettoyage. Faites attention en
nettoyant autour des boutons, des coutures
et autres finitions de bois ou décoratives,
puisque ces solvants pourraient endommager
sérieusement ces endroits.
Cleaning Painted Surfaces
The painted metal surfaces are covered in durable, powder-
coated paint which is resistant to scratching and scuffing.
It may be cleaned with a clean cloth dampened with mild,
soapy water or equivalent household product that uses spray
application.
Recommended Infection Control Products
The disinfectant/cleaner products that we have tested and
recommend for our upholstery, painted items and plastic
covers are as follows.
• Cavicide® Hospital Disinfectant
• Precise® Hospital Foam Cleaner Disinfectant
CAUTION : Follow manufacturer’s directions for
concentration and application of disinfecting
cleaner. Avoid prolonged application of any
disinfectant/cleaner products, because
they may cause staining or discoloration of
material.
PRÉCAUTION : Suivez les instructions
du fabricant pour la concentration et
l’application de nettoyeurs désinfectants.
Évitez une application prolongée de tout
produit désinfectant/nettoyant, parce que
ceux-ci pourraient causer des taches ou une
décoloration du matériel.
