the straps are wound through each component as they are removed.

water on a normal or gentle wash cycle. Include other strap accessories such as the H-strap, pelvic

calcium/lime remover (such as CLR), scrub with a soft brush and rinse thoroughly with water.

It is recommended to the user that a qualified Raz dealer check over all fasteners and subassemblies if
there is cause for concern regarding the shower chair

Several times each year the shower chair and its components should be wiped down with a diluted
calcium/lime removal solution to reduce deposits, followed by a hot water rinse.
To reduce the risk of mildew buildup, the entire chair should be wiped down with a soft dry cloth after the
final rinse and before storage or use.
