8. Cleaning and Disinfection

8.1 Clean the upholstery with warm water and a washing-up liquid.
Remove spots with a sponge or a soft brush. Rinse with clear water and
let the components dry.
8.2 Do not use any aggressive cleansing agents, solvents, or hard brushes
etc.
8.3 No wet-cleaning. Components are not machine washable.
For disinfection, water-based agents (e.g. Sagrotan original concentrate)
should be used. The manufacturer's instructions for use must be ob-
served.
8.4 Before disinfecting, the pads and handles must be cleaned. Plastic parts,
frame parts as well as chassis and wheels can be cleaned with a mild de-
tergent. Dry thoroughly afterwards.
9. Re-use

Information on Re-Use

The product is suitable for re-use. Similar to second-hand machines or cars,
products that are being re-used are subject to increased strain. Features and
functions must not change in a way that could endanger patients or other per-
sons within the product's life cycle.
Based on market observations and the current state of technology, the man-
ufacturer has calculated that the product can be used for a period of 4 years,
provided that it is used properly and that the service and maintenance instruc-
tions are observed. Periods during which the product is stored at the dealer
or with the third-party payer are not included in this period. It should be clearly
pointed out, however, that the product is reliable far beyond this defined peri-
od of time, provided that it is cared for and maintained appropriately.
In cases of re-use, the affected product must first be thoroughly cleaned and
disinfected. Subsequently, the product must be examined by an authorised
specialist to check the condition, wear and possible damage. Any worn and
damaged components as well as components which do not fit or are not suit-
able for the user must be replaced.
