CLEANING
Follow the selected covering manufacturer’s recommendations
for cleaning. Check with your supplier that the products you use
are compatible.
The chair should not be pressure-washed or placed inside a washing
machine. These practices may cause the chair components to rust
internally, as well as deteriorate the adjustment components, thus
voiding the LPA chair warranty.
MAINTENANCE
To ensure maximum use of the chair, it must be kept clean and the parts
properly adjusted. Vinyl surfaces must be cleaned with products recom-
mended by the manufacturer. The outer metal parts of the chair should
be cleaned as needed, using the same solution as for the surfaces.
As long as the recommendations for use and cleaning are followed, the
Harmony chair does not require preventive maintenance. Some parts will
need to be replaced for normal wear and tear over years of use.
