Care and maintenance
Disinfection:
IEM has tested the following means for the disinfection of the cuff sleeve:
▪
Isopropanol (70%)
▪
Terralin liquid (manufacturer: Schülke & Mayr)
When using other disinfectants that have not been tested by IEM, the burden of proof that these can be used
without causing damage lies with the user. Never use disinfectants which leave residue on the product or which
are not suitable for contact with the skin.
To achieve the optimum effect, apply the disinfectant to the cuff sleeve for at least 5 minutes.
Always allow the agents to dry without any residue.
Ensure that any disinfectants used are washed off, leaving no residue, before the blood pressure sleeve is worn.
Cleaning:
ATTENTION
▪
To clean, use lukewarm water up to 30°C max., to which you can add a mild detergent if necessary.
▪
Do not use fabric softeners or other additives (e.g. hygiene rinses, textile deodorants). These agents
can leave behind residue and damage the material!
▪
The cuff sleeve can be washed in the washing machine up to 30°C using a mild detergent without
spin-dry.
▪
The cuff sleeve is not suitable for drying in a dryer.
Balloon: Wipe the balloon with lukewarm water only, adding a mild detergent if necessary. Ensure that no water
