Cleaning and disinfection
Remove all accessories from the bed before cleaning it.
Unplug the power cord. On battery-equipped beds, lock the functions from the
nurse control panel or locking panel, and make sure that the functions are
locked by testing the buttons of the hand-held controller.
Remove stains as soon as possible.
Clean the bed regularly, it is recommended daily to clean often contacted
surfaces of the bed (siderails, bed ends, handles and parts or accessories
which are touched daily). Always carry out cleaning/disinfection when the
patient changes or bed taken to another place for use. Clean the bed more
thoroughly once a month. Make sure that you also follow any facility/hospital-
specific instructions when cleaning/disinfecting the bed. Always clean bed
before and after service work to avoid contamination.
8.1 Metal and plastic surfaces
Clean the bed’s metal and plastic parts and any controllers using a damp wipe
and mild detergent. Use a small brush to reach small spaces. If necessary,
rinse the surfaces with clean water and dry them thoroughly. Avoid excessive
use of liquids.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions when using and diluting a disinfectant
(alcohol/chlorine). Allow the disinfectant to evaporate at room temperature.
Plastic surfaces (ABS, HDPE, PP) are highly resistant to different chemicals.
Plastic is resistant to bleaching agents (alkaline compounds). Dilute organic or
inorganic acids. Solvents and cleaning agents may also be used (check the
product leaflet for concentrations that are safe to use).
Plastic surfaces may get damaged if they are exposed to aromatic
hydrocarbons (benzene and its derivatives), ketones, ethers, esters, and
chlorinated hydrocarbons. Keep in mind that plastic might also deteriorate if it
is exposed to several chemicals at the same time.
Stainless steel is highly resistant to chemicals. Clean stainless-steel surfaces
using a mild detergent solution. Ammonia and most solvents can be used to
remove difficult stains. Avoid chlorine-based solutions.
Painted or chrome-plated surfaces can be cleaned using a mild detergent.
These surfaces are also highly resistant to chemicals. Avoid using harsh
detergents and cleaning products.
All surfaces must be dry before using the bed.
Always unplug the power cord from the socket before cleaning.
Do not clean the bed mechanically or using running water.
Do not clean the bed when the temperature or relative humidity is
exceptionally high.
