7 CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Proper care and maintenance are essential to keeping your Select Convertible Mattress in a safe
operating condition. In addition to inspecting the unit before each use, periodic maintenance
checks should be done.
WARNING: It is extremely important that the Convertible Mattress be inspected before
each use. Ensure that all hardware and accessories are secure and that the actuator is
functioning properly. Failure to do so could result in patient / attendant injury or damage to
your Convertible Mattress. Torn, cut, frayed or broken slings can fail, resulting in serious
injury. Only use slings in good condition. Inspect before each use. Destroy and discard old
worn and unusable slings.
WARNING: Service and repair of the Select Convertible Mattress MUST be performed by
qualified personnel ONLY.
WARNING: Unauthorized modification of the Convertible Mattress or the use of non-Lumex
replacement parts may change the structure of the Convertible Mattress and could create a
hazardous condition, which may result in serious injury and will void the warranty.
WARNING: The electronics and actuator contain no serviceable components. DO NOT
attempt to open the electronics or actuator. If service is required, consult GF Tech Support
at 1.770.368.4700 for further information.
When you believe a component or part is not functioning properly, immediately contact GF Tech
Support at 1.770.368.4700, as a potentially hazardous condition could exist.
CLEANING
General Guidance
Because of the variety of laundry equipment, chemicals, and conditions in use, you should pre-test
cleaning of the cover with your agent of choice to ensure compatibility.
Routine Care:
Surface wipe with neutral detergent and lukewarm water. Rinse thoroughly with
water and dry thoroughly.
Washing and Disinfection
Surface wipe with quaternary solution at the recommended ratios. However, as noted in the
general guidance section, you should first test the fabric with the solution you are using to be
certain that the fabric is performing as required. Under no circumstances should a phenolic based
cleaning agent be used.
