anything between the cushion cells.

Check the valve to make sure it is still
closed. Place in a large sink. A clean
shower or a tub is also acceptable.
Do not allow water or cleaning
solution to enter the product.
Hand wash the cushion using a mild
dishwashing liquid or laundry
detergent.
Use a soft plastic bristle brush,
sponge or washcloth to gently scrub
all cushion surfaces.
Repeat previous cleaning
instructions using a solution of 9
parts warm water: 1 part household
bleach. Most germicidal disinfectants
are safe if the manufacturer’s dilution
directions are being followed.
Keep the clean product wet with
bleach solution for 10 minutes, then
rinse thoroughly with fresh water.
Once the cushion and cover are both
dry, replace the cushion inside the
cover. Use the directional labels on
the cushion and cover to be sure the
cushion is inserted correctly.
For more detailed information on cleaning and disinfecting a ROHO cushion, refer to the product operation manual provided with your cushion.
