WARNING:
PLEASE DO NOT SPRAY ANY CHEMICAL DIRECTLY ONTO THE HUMMINGBIRD. APPLY ONTO A SOFT

HUMMINGBIRD.
The Mounting Assembly may be cleaned with most mild, non-abrasive solutions commonly used in the hospital
environment (e.g., diluted bleach, ammonia, or alcohol solutions). The Surface Finish will be permanently damaged by
strong chemical and solvent such as acetone and trichloroethylene. Steel wool or other abrasive material should never
be used. Damage caused by the use of unapproved substances or processes will not be warranted. It is recommended
that you test any cleaning solution on a small area of the Hummingbird that is not visible to verify compatibility. Never
submerge the Hummingbird and do not allow liquids to enter it. Wipe any cleaning agents off the Hummingbird
immediately using a water-dampened cloth. Dry the Hummingbird thoroughly after.
