- For machine washing or disinfecting, make sure the washing machine capacity is sufficient. A washing machine that isn't large enough may not remove all soil

or contaminants from a cushion.

- Using a damaged cushion will reduce or eliminate the benefits of the cushion and increase risk to skin and other soft tissue.

Prepare the Cushion for Machine Cleaning:

1) Remove the cover and close the inflation valve(s). Examine the cushion for damage, and patch any holes (refer to Repair Kit instructions provided

with the product).

2) Remove stains or odors as needed: Place the cushion in warm water and a disinfectant cleaning agent. Gently scrub, using a soft plastic bristle

brush, and rinse with clean water.

3) Deflate the cushion: Open the inflation valve and roll up the cushion, starting at the corner opposite the valve. After you have removed as much air

as possible, close the inflation valve.

4) Inspect for any sharp edges in the washing machine that may damage the cushion.

Machine Wash the Cushion:

Place the cushion in a laundry bag and then into the washing machine. When folding the cushion, make sure the air cells face outward.

Use warm water (85º - 105ºF / 30º - 40ºC) and laundry detergent or machine- and cushion-safe cleaner/biocide, placed in the detergent dispenser.

Gentle cycle: Use a machine setting that does not include a high-speed spin cycle.

Machine Disinfect the Cushion: Follow the machine washing instructions and use hot water 60°C (140°F). Use biocide (refer to the

manufacturer instructions). Bleach with care: Only use a dilution of 1 part household liquid bleach per 9 parts water. Rinse with clean water.

Caution: Rinse thoroughly. Detergent residue may cause air cells to stick together.

Drying the Cushion: Remove the cushion from the laundry bag and air dry. For faster drying, use a hand-held hair dryer, hold no closer than

6 in. (15 cm) from the cushion, and use a sweeping motion.

Warning: Overheating the neoprene rubber can cause permanent product damage.
