5.4 ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

PRIOR TO TREATMENT
1. Ensure the unit is unplugged from the Power
Supply.
2. Inspect the GelMat for signs of wear or damage.
Replace worn or damaged GelMat prior to
treatment.
3. Place new Cloud Swaddle (Plus) on device.
Caution:
Do not use damp wipes or liquids of any
kind on the light emitting area as this may damage
the device. Do not soak or spray water on the
device.
CLEANING
The Skylife system consists of four (4) components: Light Bed with Controller, GelMat (mattress), Cloud Swaddle
(disposable mattress cover), and the Power Supply. Only three of the four components are designed to be reused,
the Light Bed, GelMat, and Power Supply. The Cloud Swaddle is disposable/single use only.
Cloud Swaddle & GelMat
The Cloud Swaddle protects the GelMat (mattress), and Light Bed from contamination during use. In the event
that bodily fluids soak through the Cloud Swaddle to the GelMat, the GelMat may require cleaning. Do not remove
GelMat during cleaning.
Cleaning and Disinfection Procedure
1. Unplug the device. Always turn off and disconnect the device from the power outlet during cleaning.
2. Remove Cloud Swaddle from device and discard. Make sure to replace Cloud Swaddle between patients,
whenever soiled, or every 24 hrs, whichever occurs first.
3. Using recommended, pre-moistened disinfection wipes (such as Super Sani Cloth®), remove all visible
contamination from the GelMat and verify under normal lighting. Do not remove GelMat during cleaning.
4. After all visible contamination has been removed, use disinfection wipes to thoroughly wet the exposed surfaces
of the GelMat and exposed edges of the Light Bed.
5. Ensure that the surface remains visibly wet for 3 minutes at room temperature (68°F/20°C), or as specified by
product instructions. Use additional wipes as needed to maintain a visibly wet surface.
6. Allow the surface to dry.
7. Follow this by using a clean damp cloth moistened only with clean water to rinse the same exposed surfaces.
Repeat this at least 2 more times with a clean damp cloth or until any remaining chemical residues are removed.
8. If the device is determined not to be visibly clean after these steps, repeat the cleaning process or do not use
the device.
Professional and Home Usage
For healthcare and home use, make sure to use the disposable Cloud Swaddle according to the directions above. The
Skylife device is to be cleaned using standard cleaning cloths (such as Super Sani Cloth®) prior to use. You may clean
the non-body contact areas such as the Light Bed, GelMat, controller, and power supply of the Skylife™ system using
standard cleaning wipes (such as Super Sani Cloth®).
If the unit is cleaned in a healthcare setting, make sure to refer to the institutional cleaning procedures and
requirements for cleaning the non-body contact areas such as the Light Bed, GelMat, controller, and power supply.
Caution: In either healthcare or home use setting, do not allow liquids to seep into the Light Bed housing. Do not
use strong acidic and alkaline solutions, and do not autoclave or gas sterilize the Skylife™ system. As mentioned
above, always turn off the device and disconnect it from the power outlet during cleaning before reuse.
DURING TREATMENT

1. Turn off the device and unplug the power cord from
outlet.
2. Remove and discard Cloud Swaddle following
institution practice.
3. Visually inspect GelMat and Light Bed for soil or liquid.
Clean as required per institutional practices or as
instructed below.
