How to Maintain 

When cleaning the product we 

recommend that you use only warm 

water and a non-abrasive detergent. 

Never use organic solvents or dry 

cleaning fluids. 

Upholstery and fabrics 

The Leeway Pelvic Cradle may be washed 

in the washing machine at 40°C. Drip dry. 

Do not iron. Placing the Leeway Pelvic 

Cradle inside a cloth bag during washing 

may help prevent scratches to the 

product and machine.

1.  The upholstery and fabrics can be 

cleaned by hand whilst in place. 

When cleaning we recommend that 

you use only warm water and a 

nonabrasive detergent.

2.  The best cleaning method is a ‘wipe 

& dry’ technique.

3.  Staining should be removed as 

quickly as possible with absorbent 

cloth, towels or a sponge. Routine 

soap and warm water sponging is 

effective for ordinary soiling and 

minor spills. Be careful not to over 

wet the fabric, as this will cause the 

staining to spread.

4.  Antiseptic cleaning agents can be 

used on more stubborn stains. These 

may require a safe solvent such as 

SECTION 11:  

CLEANING & CARE 

INFORMATION

Isopropyl alcohol or mineral spirit. 

A half cup of household bleach to 5 

litres of water can also be used as a 

useful disinfectant. 

5.  Always ensure the product is dry 

before use. 

(Therapists, Parents & Carers) 

We recommend that daily visual checks 

of the equipment are carried out by 

therapists, carers or parents to ensure the 

product is safe for use. The recommend 

daily checks are detailed below.

1.  Check all upholstery for signs of wear 

and tear.

2.  Check all Velcro strips and brush fluff 

to ensure straps secure firmly.

SECTION 12:  

DAILY PRODUCT 

INSPECTION

If in any doubt to the 

continued safe use of your 

Leckey product or if any parts 

should fail, please cease using 

the product and contact 

our customer care team or 

your local dealer as soon as 

possible.
