Cleaning, care and disinfection
The individual components of this nursing care bed are all made from top-quality materi-
als. The surface of the tubular steel frame is coated with a long-lasting polyester powder
coating. All wooden parts are sealed with low-pollutant surface sealants. All bed compo-
nents can be easily cleaned and maintained in accordance with applicable hygiene re-
quirements in the various usage environments, using wipe-down and spray disinfection
techniques. By following the care instructions in this section, the functionality and appear-
ance of your nursing care bed can be maintained for a long time.
5.1
Cleaning and care
Tubular steel and enamelled metal parts:
To clean and care for these surfaces, use a damp cloth together with standard mild house-
hold cleansers.
Wood, decorative and plastic components:
All standard furniture cleansers and care products can be used with these components.
For cleaning plastic elements, a damp cloth with no added cleansers is generally sufficient.
When caring for plastic surfaces, use products that are specifically intended for use on
plastic.
Drive system:
To prevent moisture from entering the motor housing, the housing should only be wiped
gently with a damp cloth.
5.1
Disinfection
Disinfect the nursing care bed via wipe-down disinfection. Follow the procedures tested
and approved by the Robert Koch Institute (RKI). You can use standard cleansers and dis-
infectants approved by the RKI. To maintain the durability of plastic components like the
motor housing and decorative elements, only mild and gentle products should be used for
disinfection. Concentrated acids, aromatic and chlorinated hydrocarbons, higher alcohols,
ethers, esters and ketones will corrode the material and therefore should not be used.
