washing or laundry detergent or other general-purpose cleaning
product is suggested. For institutional cleaning, a general house-
keeping disinfectant cleaner may be used.

uct that meets infection control needs. A disinfectant with tubercu-
locidal properties is recommended. Follow the manufacturer's dilu-
tion directions. For home disinfection, use solutions of approxi-
mately 1/2 cup liquid household bleach per quart of water (125 ml
bleach to 1 liter of water). Keep the clean cushion wet with bleach
solution for 10 minutes. Rinse thoroughly and dry.

If A Leak Occurs

corners touch.

3. Once the leak has been located, mark the leak by inserting a
toothpick into the hole
4. Allow the cushion to dry thoroughly.
5. Remove the toothpick, and clean the area around the hole
with the alcohol wipe provided. Let the surface dry.
6. Peel the backing from the patch provided and, centering the
patch, place it over the hole.
7. Press the patch down firmly until a good seal is achieved.
8. The cushion is now ready for use. Adjust the cushion for
proper inflation following the instructions in this manual.
Although patches do not change the performance of the cushion,
they should be monitored periodically to ensure effectiveness in
addressing the leak. If the patch is not successful in addressing the
problem, or if more extensive damage is present, please contact
your supplier immediately.
