Clean the device using a standard non-abrasive cleaning agent (pH between 5 and 9). Rinse and dry.
Disinfect the device with a 70% disinfectant solution. Allow to air dry.

Cleaning in a clinical environment

Cleaning by washing machine or washing tunnel must be carried out in accordance with EN/ISO 60601-2-52.
The following points must be observed during the washing process:

The device must be secured and positioned upright with the wheels locked.
In order to maintain the flexibility of the cables, it is important that the cable is positioned in such a way that its own weight does not load the spiraling.
The cables must be connected to prevent water ingress.
To ensure that the pre-lubricated inner tube remains lubricated, the actuator may only be washed when the piston rod is fully retracted.
When washing the soft back, the velcro straps must be put together.
