Confirm that the inflation valve(s) are completely closed. Look for holes in the cushion. If very small holes or no holes
are visible, follow the instructions in the Repair Kit provided with your product. For damage to the inflation valve, quick
disconnect, or hose, or for large holes or leaks in the cushion, see the Limited Warranty supplement, or contact Customer
Support.

cushion.
Confirm that the inflation valve(s) are open. Inspect the inflation valve(s) and hose(s) for damage. When inflating SELECT
Cushions: Confirm that the green knob of the ISOFLO Memory Control is pushed toward the center of the ISOFLO in the
UNLOCKED position so that all chambers will inflate. For the Sensor Ready Cushion: also check the quick disconnect for
damage.

or unstable.
-
Make sure that the cushion is not underinflated or overinflated (See Cushion Setup).
- The cushion cells and the top of the cover should face up.
- The cushion should be centered beneath the individual.
- The cushion should be properly sized to the individual and the wheelchair.
Allow the individual at least one hour to adjust to the cushion.
The cushion slides on the
wheelchair.
Make sure that the non-skid bottom of the cushion cover faces away from the individual. Use directional labels on the
cushion and on the cover to orient the cushion. When possible, use hook and loop fasteners to further secure the cushion to
the wheelchair. Hook fasteners are available upon request. Refer to the instructions provided with the cover.
A component is damaged.
Contact Customer Support for a replacement.
Cleaning and Disinfecting
Note: For cover care instructions, refer to the manual provided with the cover.
Warnings:
- DO NOT allow water or cleaning solution to enter the cushion. Make sure the inflation valve(s) are closed.
- Sensor Ready Cushion: Make sure the Smart Check is detached from the cushion. Water in a cushion with Sensor Ready (SR) technology can result in
damage to the Smart Check and cause a false reading when using Smart Check.
- Cleaning and disinfecting are separate processes. Cleaning must precede disinfection. If the product becomes soiled, or between use by different individuals:
clean, disinfect, and check the product for proper functioning.
- Clean the product regularly and when it becomes soiled.
- Follow all manufacturer bleach container and germicidal disinfectant safety guidelines.
- Note about sterilization: High temperatures accelerate aging and will damage the product assembly. The products featured in this manual are not packaged
in a sterile condition, nor are they intended or required to be sterilized prior to use. If institution protocol demands sterilization: First, follow the cleaning and
disinfecting instructions; then, open the inflation valve(s) and use the lowest possible sterilizing temperature, but not to exceed 70°C (158°F), for the shortest
time possible. DO NOT autoclave.
Cautions:
- Use of the following may cause damage to the cushion: abrasives (steel wool, scouring pads); caustic, automatic dishwasher detergents; cleaning products
that contain petroleum or organic solvents, including acetone, toluene, Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK), naphtha, dry cleaning fluid, adhesive remover; oil-based
lotions, lanolin, ozone gas; ultraviolet light cleaning methods.
- DO NOT expose to direct sunlight.
Recommendation: When washing by hand, use room-temperature water.
Note: Deflated air cells may be easier to thoroughly clean. To deflate the air cells: with the inflation valve(s) open, roll up and/or compress the cushion, and then
completely close the inflation valve(s).
Hand Wash and Hand Disinfect the Cushion (Preferred Method)
Hand Wash the Cushion:
Remove the cover, close the inflation valve(s), and place in a large sink. Hand wash, using mild liquid hand soap,
hand dishwashing liquid, laundry detergent, or a multipurpose detergent (follow product label instructions). Gently scrub all cushion surfaces,
using a soft plastic bristle brush, a sponge or a cloth. Rinse with clean water. Air dry.
Hand Disinfect the Cushion:
Follow the hand wash instructions, using 1 part household liquid bleach per 9 parts water. Keep
the product wet with the bleach solution for 10 minutes. Rinse thoroughly with clean water. Air dry.
Caution:
Rinse thoroughly. Detergent residue may cause air cells to stick together.
