Cleaning
23
The 2100 is designed and constructed to minimize and simplify your housekeeping requirements. Large, flat
surfaces with a minimum of cracks and crevices make the bed easy to clean using standard hospital practices
and procedures. All parts of the bed should be washed using a mild, detergent–type, cleaning solution. Gen-
eral–duty sanitizers and disinfectants may be used on all bed components, but avoid excessive moisture or
abrasive cleaners on hardwood areas. Also, avoid leaving excessive moisture between the mattress and foot
panel by drying surface thoroughly before re–making the bed.
GENERAL CLEANING
In general, when used in those concentrations recommended by the manufacturer, either phenolic type or
quaternary type disinfectants can be used with Staph–Chek fabrics. Iodophor type disinfectants are not rec-
ommended for use on Staph–Chek fabrics because staining may result. The following products have been
tested by the Herculite Laboratory and have been found not to have a harmful effect on Staph–Chek fabrics

REMOVAL OF IODINE COMPOUNDS
NOTE
This solution may be used to remove iodine stains from mattress cover and foam footrest pad surfaces.
1. Use a solution of 1–2 tablespoons Sodium Thiosulfate in a pint of warm water to clean the stained area.
Clean as soon as possible after staining occurs. If stains are not immediately removed, allow solution to
soak or stand on the surface.
2. Rinse surfaces which have been exposed to the solution in clear water before returning bed to service.
