Invacare® Action 4 NG
For cleaning and disinfection in clinical or long-term
care environments, follow your in-house procedures.
8.3.2 Cleaning Intervals
IMPORTANT!
Regular cleaning and disinfection enhances
smooth operation, increases the service life and
prevents contamination.
Clean and disinfect the product
– regularly while it is in use,
– before and after any service procedure,
– when it has been in contact with any body
fluids,
– before using it for a new user.
8.3.3 Cleaning
IMPORTANT!
Dirt, sand and seawater can damage the bearings
and steel parts can rust if the surface is damaged.
– Only expose the wheelchair to sand and
seawater for short periods and clean it after
every trip to the beach.
– If the wheelchair is dirty, wipe off the dirt as
soon as possible with a damp cloth and dry
it carefully.
1.
Remove any options fitted (only options which do not
require tools).
2.
Wipe down the individual parts using a cloth or soft
brush, ordinary household cleaning agents (pH = 6 -
8) and warm water.
3.
Rinse the parts with warm water.
4.
Thoroughly dry the parts with a dry cloth.
Car polish and soft wax can be used on painted metal
surfaces to remove abrasions and restore gloss.
Cleaning upholstery
For cleaning upholstery refer to the instructions on the
labels of the seat, cushion and backrest cover.
If possible, always overlap hook and loop strips (the
self-gripping parts) when washing, to minimize lint
and thread build-up on hook strips and prevent
damage to upholstery fabric by these.
8.3.4 Disinfection
The wheelchair may be disinfected by spraying or wiping
with tested, approved disinfectants.
Spray a soft cleaning and disinfecting product
(bactericidal and fungicide meeting the EN1040
/ EN1276 / EN1650 standards) and follow the
instructions given by the manufacturer.
1.
Wipe down all generally accessible surfaces with a soft
cloth and ordinary household disinfectant.
