Care & Maintenance
1. Please examine your shower chair for any visible damage before using. If you see any
damage or suspect a fault, please contact your supplier.
In this case, please do not use your product as it may compromise your safety.
2. Cleaning: All of the product components are manufactured from quality materials.
However, it is very important that you only clean your shower chairs and stools using a
non-abrasive cleaner or mild detergent with a soft cloth and avoid using lime scale
remover. Abrasive cleaners and or abrasive cleaning pads will seriously damage your
product beyond repair.
Do not exceed 50°C when cleaning the seat as this will permanently damage the plastic.
NOTE: Regular daily cleaning will reduce the build-up of lime-scale on your product.
Under No Circumstances use any abrasive cleaners or materials on any of the
components. Also check that the cleaner you intend to use is suitable for ABS, Vinyl,
Polymer Plastics and Thermo plastic rubbers and Polyurethane Rubber.
3. Use of Bath Oils
We do not recommend the use of bath oils but if used, caution should be observed if you
are using any form of bath oils or oily skin preparation with your shower chair as this may
impair your natural contact skin resistance.
In the event of using any such oil, your seat must be thoroughly cleaned with a suitable
detergent to break down any oily residue. Failure to observe this recommendation could
impair your safety and the function of the shower seat.
