Cleaning

routine cleaning
• Drain the bath water and fully inflate the Bathing Cushion for cleaning whilst it is still in the
bath. To clean between the seat and base sections, partially deflate the Bathing Cushion.
• All components can be cleaned with a proprietary non abrasive mild liquid cleaner or
disinfectant. Always follow packaging instructions for using mild detergent products.
NOTE: Before using proprietary cleaners, always test on an inconspicuous area.
• Use a soft cloth when cleaning.
• Do not wash the product in boiling water.
IMPORTANT: Following cleaning and after each use, rinse thoroughly with clean water to remove
all soap deposits. Wipe dry or leave to air dry. Never store the Bathing Cushion when it is wet or
damp. It is recommended that the Bathing Cushion is left inflated in-between uses to allow air to
circulate around it and reduce the risk of mould forming on the surface of the product. Do not
leave in bright sun light. Do not dry using hot air.
disinfection
• The Bathing Cushion should be fully inflated and pre-cleaned by washing with detergent and
water, thoroughly rinsed and then disinfected using a 1:10 solution of household liquid bleach
and water (1 part bleach to 10 parts cold water). Leave the solution on the Bathing Cushion for
approximately 10 minutes before thoroughly rinsing off with clean cold water.
WARNING: Never mix bleach with any other cleaning product as doing so can result in the
formation of harmful acids and poisonous gasses which can cause serious breathing problems.
Thick bleach should not be used for disinfection purposes (other than in toilet bowls and
drains) as it contains potentially poisonous additives. Always read the safety information on
the label before using any bleach product.
Mangar International recommends that your Bathing Cushion is inspected annually by either
your supplier or other suitably qualified person. If required, Mangar International can provide
the above inspection within an annual service contract. Please contact our Customer Service
Department for further details.

Maintenance

• Clean the Bathing Cushion after each use. NOTE: It is
especially important to thoroughly clean your Bathing
Cushion after each bath if 'Dettol' or similar products have
been added to the bath water.
• Regularly check that the suction cups are secure and
undamaged; these are screwed onto threaded studs on the
underside of the Bathing Cushion and should only be hand
tight (fig.13).
