Proper Sterilization Instructions
Care of upholstery
The upholstery material used on the top, leg rest, an
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.
***See current CDC Guideline for Disinfection & Sterilization in
Healthcare Facilities for bleach alternative cleaners.

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 stained areas.
CAUTION:
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.
