UPHOLSTERY
Daily
Mild soap and water should be used for cleaning of upholstery. The upholstery material
used on the top and leg rest is resistant to most medical stains. Care should be used where
solvents or dyes are used. UMF Medical recommends the use of Murphy’s oil soap or Ivory
liquid. If dirt or stains still remain, use rubbing alcohol.
CAUTION:
To avoid potential damage to upholstery, immediately remove any fluid spilled on
upholstery surface.
CAUTION:
When the use of rubbing alcohol is necessary, first test in an inconspicuous area to ensure
that damage to upholstery will not occur.
PAINTED SURFACES
Weekly
Wipe down with a cloth using warm water or a mild soap solution. A chemical acid
resistant paint is used, but extreme care must be taken not to use ammonia based cleaners
or discoloration of paint may occur. UMF Medical recommends the use of Murphy’s oil
soap or Ivory liquid.
BRIGHT METAL SURFACES
Weekly
All non-painted surfaces, chrome plated or stainless steel, should be wiped with a clean
damp cloth then buffed to a lustrous shine with a soft dry cloth.
