NOTE:
Hygiene measures when being re-used:
Prior to the wheelchair being re-used, it must be carefully prepared. All surfaces which come into contact with the user
must be treated with a disinfection spray.
To do this, you must use a disinfectant as authorised/recommended in your country, for rapid alcohol-based disinfection for
medical products and medical devices, which must be disinfected quickly.
Please be aware of the manufacturer's instructions for the disinfectant you are using.
In general, a complete disinfection cannot be guaranteed on seams. We therefore recommend that you dispose of seat and
back slings to avoid micro-bacterial contamination with active agents according to your local infection protection law.
