CLEANING
WARNING: Follow all manufacturer bleach container and germicidal disinfectant safety guidelines.
CAUTION: Frequent heat drying and bleaching will cause fabric to break down. Air drying and cleaning without bleach
are recommended whenever possible to help extend the life of the cover.
Spray with common household or
commercial antibacterial cleansers or
disinfectants. Wipe with a damp, water-
only cloth after disinfecting. Let dry
completely before use.
CAUTION: DO NOT wash or dry Stretch-Air, COMFORT-TEK or GlideWear covers with hook and loop fasteners or other
materials that could snag the fabric. Doing so could pull at the fabrics, causing changes in the appearance (but not the
effectiveness) of the fabrics.
IMPORTANT! Before cleaning or disinfecting, remove the cover (and foam, for the Premium Pad) from the support pad
and hardware.
Cleaning: When possible, hand wash in warm water with mild soap, rinse thoroughly with clean water, and air dry (let dry
completely before use). Or machine wash using common laundry detergent and tumble dry low.
Hand Wash
Disinfecting - Pad: Wash the cover with water and bleach. Rinse thoroughly. Follow
the directions on the bleach container. Let dry completely before use. May hand
wash with bleach using 1 part household liquid bleach per 9 parts warm 40°C/104°F
water. Rinse thoroughly with clean water. Let dry completely before use.
WARNINGS: DO NOT use contaminated foam with multiple users. Disinfectants are NOT effective on porous surfaces
such as foam. Replacement foam components may be purchased separately.
CAUTIONS: DO NOT submerge the foam in any liquid, including water. The foam should not be exposed to light for any
extended period of time. Light will cause discoloration of the foam.
Note: Discoloration will not affect the functional features. There is no need to attempt to "clean" discoloration caused by light
exposure.
Soiled foams should be replaced. Remove the cover. Wipe lightly with a damp cloth.
DO NOT use soap. Let dry completely before replacing the cover.
Before cleaning or disinfecting, remove the cover support pad from the hardware.
Cleaning: Hand wash in warm
(40°C/104°F) water with soap and a
sponge. Rinse with clean water and wipe
dry with a clean cloth.
Dry completely before use.
