WARNINGS

Clean and disinfect the tub after EACH use to avoid resident infection and contamination of the tub. DO NOT clean or disinfect the tub when it is occupied. Otherwise injury may occur.

Read and understand ALL information on disinfecting 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 the disinfectant container.

CAUTION

NEVER use abrasive cleaners like scouring powder or liquid cleaners containing pumice stone. The use of these types of cleaners will make the gel-coat finish of your tub scratched and dull. NEVER use cleaners containing Iodine, Household Bleach, Bromine, Betadine® or Methylene Blue. The use of these types of cleaners will cause the tub to stain. Use of unapproved cleaners will dry out the rubber seals and gaskets and the tub will not function properly.
