GENERAL CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

This is a guide only and the manufacturer does not accept any liability/responsibility for use thereof. The above

maintenance program is comprehensive but not exhaustive.

1. General Cleaning

For longevity, wiping the chair covers with a neutral detergent and a warm water solution is preferable, then dry

with a soft, clean cloth. The use of mild non-abrasive pure soap is recommended. Stubborn grime may require gentle

scrubbing with a soft brush. (Refer to standard instructions). Armrests, wings etc can all be easily swung away /

removed to allow for cleaning access.

DO NOT MACHINE WASH. DO NOT DRY CLEAN

FOR TREATING SPECIFIC STAINS, ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT PROMPT ATTENTION YIELDS MORE COMPLETE

REMOVAL.

Warning!

Never use furniture polishes, abrasive cleaners or steel wool. Regular use of cleaners containing hydrocarbons

or similar additives may cause damage to the vinyl and harden the surface. Strong solvents, e.g. Acetones are

detrimental to the vinyl surface. Avoid exposure to excessive heat and non-colour-fast dye stus found in some

articles of clothing as they may transfer to the fabric surface. Sunlight will also shorten the life of most vinyls.

2. Replaceable Foams and Vinyl

Should it be necessary replacement foams and vinyls are available to keep the product up to standard. The modular

design of the Regency & Sertain

Care

Chair ensures that individual covers can be replaced without the need for full re-covering as per traditionally

upholstered chairs.

3. Framework

The framework of the Sertain

Care Chairs is manufactured from zinc-coated steel; there is no timber used at all in

the main construction of the Sertain

Care Chairs. In the event of soiling, spillages and contamination the most of the

chair frame can be easily rinsed using a neutral detergent solution. On the electrical Sertain

Chair models, check the

actuators IP rating to conrm if they withstand rinsing where necessary without damage to the electrical circuits.

4. Vinyl Protector

Distributors of the Regency & Sertain

ranges of high-dependency seating supply a vinyl Protectant treatment,

containing a plasticiser. This easy to apply solution can be sprayed on and left to air dry, after cleaning, leaving the

chair vinyl surface fresh and supple.
