CLEANING
Hand wash all surfaces of the bed with warm water and mild detergent. Dry thoroughly.
CAUTION
Quaternary Germicidal Disinfectants, used as directed, and/or Chlorine Bleach products, typically 5.25% So-
dium Hypochlorite in dilutions ranging between 1 part bleach to 100 parts water, and 2 parts bleach to 100
parts water are not considered mild detergents. THESE PRODUCTS ARE CORROSIVE IN NATURE AND
MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO YOUR BED IF USED IMPROPERLY. If these types of products are used to clean
Stryker patient care equipment, measures must be taken to insure the beds are rinsed with clean water and
thoroughly dried following cleaning. Failure to properly rinse and dry the beds will leave a corrosive residue
on the surface of the bed, possibly causing premature corrosion of critical components. Failure to follow the
above directions when using these types of cleaners may void this product’s warranty.
CAUTION
Do not steam clean or hose off the Secure 3000. Do not immerse any part of the bed. Some of the internal
parts of the bed are electric and may be damaged by exposure to water.
Clean Velcro AFTER EACH USE. Saturate Velcro with disinfectant and allow disinfectant to evaporate. (Ap-
propriate disinfectant for nylon Velcro should be determined by the hospital.)
In general, when used in those concentrations recommended by the manufacturer, either phenolic type or
quaternary type disinfectants can be used with Staph–Chek fabrics. Iodophor type disinfectants are not rec-
ommended for use on Staph–Chek fabrics because staining may result. The following products have been
tested by the Herculite Laboratory and have been found not to have a harmful effect on Staph–Chek fabrics
