OUTER COVER:

General Cleaning
The knitted fabric side of the cover can be wiped with a damp absorbent towel,
cloth, or paper towel. Remove all gross contamination from surface (i.e. food
particles, urine, feces, blood). Spot-clean with mild soap and water.
Cleaning and Disinfection Instructions
The coated side of the cover can be cleaned and disinfected with ready-to-use
disinfecting wipes 3M, Virox Accel TB, Accel Prevention, PREempt, OPTIM 33 TB,
or other wipes with similar formulations. Note that the surface should be cleaned first,
with all gross contamination (i.e. urine, feces, blood) first removed with absorbent
material (cloth or paper towel). Ensure the coated surface of the cover is clean by
wiping with one of 2-in-1 cleaning and disinfecting wipes mentioned above.
To disinfect, liberally wipe the surface with the ready-to-use disinfecting wipe again.
Avoid pooling of the disinfectant and ensure the disinfectant is distributed equally

disinfecting products manufacturing instructions). It is best practice to wipe the
surface with a damp cloth, mild soap, and finally a damp cloth no matter what
disinfectant is used.
