Preventive maintenance is the best method to ensure optimal operation. General inspection
should be conducted at regular intervals.
Periodically wash all skin parts that are not regularly sanitized using warm water and soap or
manikin wipes.
Most stains can be removed with warm water and soap or Laerdal manikin wipes. Before use,
test cleaning agents on a non-critical area (e.g. under the chest cover).
Note
Pigments from lipstick and pens may be impossible to remove. Avoid using coloured plastic
gloves when handling the manikin, as they may cause discolouration.
