Cleaning and Maintenance It is recommended that your shower chair is serviced annually by Chiltern Invadex or an authorised, competent service agent, in addition: 1. Regularly inspect all parts of the chair for defects. Any defective part should be removed promptly. 2.Clean the seat using a damp cloth and a mild cleanser. Always read the manufacturers instructions prior to applying the cleanser. Using Sodium Hypochlorite on the seat A solution of 0.1% Sodium Hypochlorite should have no adverse effects on the cleaning of chairs covered in Ambla/Amblon. However, when using a solution of 1.0%, care should be taken to rinse the chairs thoroughly with clean water after application. Over a period of time bleaching may occur, but the integrity of the product will remain unaffected. 3.Dry off the shower chair after use. 4.Do not oil or grease any parts. 5.Keep the castors free from limescale, soap residue and hair by cleaning after use in the shower.
