SECTION 4—SAFETY INSPECTION/TROUBLESHOOTING
Part No 1118387 31 Side Entry Whirlpool Tub
Calibrating the Disinfectant Flow Meter
ƽ WARNING
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 using this procedure before disinfecting
the tub.
This procedure should only be attempted by qualified maintenance personnel.
Failure to heed these precautions could result in injury to the tub operator or
resident.
ALWAYS wear rubber gloves, an apron and face shield protection during disinfect-
ing, cleaning and rinsing procedures. In case of eye or skin contact, follow proce-
dures on disinfectant container.
