• Do not iron, dry-clean, or tumble dry the mattress, as this will cause malfunction and damage the product.
• The mattress cover must be completely dry before you store, add linens, or place a patient on the mattress to prevent
impairment of the product performance.
• Avoid over-exposure to alcohol or hydrogen peroxide. The cover material will swell.
• Do not allow liquid to seep into the zipper area and watershed cover barrier. Fluids allowed to come in contact with
the zipper may leak into the mattress which could impair the product performance.
• Some cleaning agents are corrosive in nature and may cause damage to the product if you use them improperly. If
you do not rinse and dry the product well, a corrosive residue may be left on the surface of the product that could
cause premature corrosion of critical components. Failure to follow these cleaning instructions may void your
warranty.

1. Make a solution of 1 to 2 tablespoons of sodium thiosulfate in a pint of warm water. Use the solution to wipe down the
stained area.
2. Clean the stain as soon as possible after the stain occurs.
3. If stains are not immediately removed, allow solution to soak or stand on the mattress before you wipe the mattress.
4. Rinse the mattresses which have been exposed to the solution with clear water before you return the mattresses to
service.
