13.0 System Cleaning, Care and Storage
13.1 Cleaning
1. To clean, use soap, water and a clean cloth to wipe down the Control Unit, power cord, hoses and mattress. Do not use
abrasive cleaners on the mattress. Wipe dry with a clean, dry cloth. Note: Blood and other body fluids must be
thoroughly cleaned from all surfaces before applying disinfectants.
2. Apply any EPA approved disinfectant to the external surfaces of the Control Unit, hoses and mattress. Allow contact
time according to manufacturers instructions. The solution contact time is what makes disinfection effective.
3. Wipe down the mattress with a clean, dry cloth to remove any excess disinfectant.
4. Top sheets of mattress may also be laundered between patient uses or as required to maintain good patient hygiene.
Fill the washing machine with warm water (70 – 140°F or 21 – 60°C). Add one cup of laundry detergent. Place no more
than four top sheets in a single extra large load capacity washing machine. When wash cycle is complete, remove
promptly from machine and ensure all excess water is drained from load. Place dryer on LOWEST heat setting,
or AIR FLUFF if available until dry. Verify top sheet is completely dry before placing under patient. Do not dry clean or
iron dry.
5. If individual air cells of mattress become soiled, clean and disinfect as described above or simply replace air cell with
a clean replacement. Single air cell replacement can be successfully achieved with patient remaining on the mattress.
Air cells which do not contain active sensors can also be laundered. A plug is available from Lumex to prevent water
from getting inside these during laundering.
WARNING
Disconnect the AC power cor
d from the wall outlet before attempting to clean the Control Unit. Do not heat or
steam autoclave any component of the system.
WARNING

complete set.
