Heavy Duty Cleaning Procedure
For Invacare Continuing Care Group Tubs
ƽ WARNING
DO NOT use this product or any available optional equipment without first completely reading and understanding these
instructions and any additional instructional material such as owner’s manuals, service manuals or instruction sheets supplied
with this product or optional equipment. If you are unable to understand the warnings, cautions or instructions, contact a
healthcare professional, dealer or technical personnel before attempting to use this equipment - otherwise, injury or damage may
occur.
The disinfectant dispensing system has been factory tested and calibrated for use with Invacare disinfectant. The use of any disinfectant
with a dilution ratio (½ oz. per gallon) or viscosity level different than that of Invacare disinfectant will result in an improper mixture of
disinfectant and water. This may cause your system to be improperly disinfected - or in some instances, not disinfected at all. If using
any disinfectant with a dilution ratio or viscosity level different than that of Invacare disinfectant or if switching from one type of
disinfectant to another type, the disinfectant flowmeter must be calibrated before performing this procedure. Refer to the tub owner’s
manual or to the calibration instruction sheet, part number 1154272, for the calibration procedure.
ALWAYS wear rubber gloves, an apron and face shield protection during disinfecting, cleaning and rinsing procedures. In case of
eye or skin contact, follow procedures on disinfectant container.
CAUTION
NEVER use abrasive cleaners like scouring powder or liquid cleaners containing pumice stone. The use of these types of cleaners
will make the gel-coat finish of your tub scratched and dull. NEVER use cleaners containing iodine, bromine, Betadine
®
or
methylene blue. The use of these types of cleaners will cause the tub to stain. Never use cleaners containing bleach. Use of these
types of cleaners will dry out the rubber seals and gaskets and the tub will not function properly.
Before starting the whirlpool pump, the water level must be completely above the whirlpool jets. Otherwise damage to the
motor/pump will result.
