Disinfecting the Tub Using the Closed Loop System
WARNING
Disinfect the tub after EACH use to avoid resident infection and contamination of the tub.
DO NOT disinfect the tub when it is occupied otherwise injury may occur.
Read and understand all information on Invacare brand disinfectant before use.
ALWAYS wear rubber gloves, an apron and a face shield when using disinfectant. In case of eye or skin contact,
follow procedures on disinfectant container.
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
Calibrating the Disinfectant Flow Meter on page 32.

CAUTION
NEVER use abrasive cleaners like scouring powder or liquid cleaners containing pumice stone. The use of
