Care of upholstery
The upholstery material used on the top, leg rest, and headrest is
resistant to most medical stains.
For light cleaning:
1
A solution of 10% liquid soap and clean water applied with
a soft damp cloth will remove disinfection cleaner build-up.
2
If necessary, a solution of liquid cleanser and water can be
applied with a soft bristle brush. Wipe away residue with a
water-dampened cloth.
For disinfection:
1
Dampen a soft white cloth with a solution of standard
bleach (sodium hypochlorite) or other chlorine-based
cleaner*** and water; 10% bleach, 90% water.
2
Rub gently.
3
If necessary, allow the 1:10 diluted bleach (sodium
hypochlorite) solution to puddle on the affected area or
apply with a clean, soaked cloth for approximately 30
minutes. Rinse with a water-dampened cloth to remove any
remaining bleach concentration.
4
Rinse with a water-dampened cloth to remove cleaner
solution and allow thorough drying of material.

WHEN THE USE OF STRONG
CLEANING SOLUTIONS IS NECESSARY,
TEST AN INCONSPICUOUS AREA
TO ASSURE THAT DAMAGE TO
UPHOLSTERY OR PAINTED SURFACES
WILL NOT OCCUR.
CAUTION:
Care of painted surfaces
A chemical acid-resistant paint is used, but extreme care
must be taken not to use ammonia-based cleaners or
discoloration of paint may occur. A damp cloth or mild
liquid soap solution should be sufficient.
Care of bright metal surfaces
All non-painted surfaces, chrome plated, or stainless steel
should be wiped weekly with a clean damp cloth then
buffed to a lustrous shine with a soft dry cloth.
Care of base
The protective base is easily washable with mild liquid soap
and water. A soft bristle brush may be used on scuffed or
stained areas.
