Instructions

Warranty: Warranty provides coverage due to defective parts or workmanship for a period of one (1) year after the date of original purchase. This warranty does not cover damages due to misuse or abuse of the product nor damages related to uses outside the designed parameters of the unit.

Garment Storage: With careful use and proper storage, the useful life of the garment should be several years. When not in use, garments should be placed on a hanger. Extreme heat will severely damage your garment. Avoid contact with hot surfaces or exposure to direct sunlight. Also avoid contact with sharp objects, as these may penetrate the garment's protective core. For transportation, the garments should be carefully rolled up and put in a box or tube.

Garment Cleaning: Many aqueous-based stains, especially from body fluids, are easily removed by wiping with a cloth/sponge dampened with water containing a non-aggressive, non-bleach detergent. A soft scrubbing brush may be needed for dried blood and stubborn aqueous stains (including barium contrast media) where these have gone into the weave/fibers of the fabric.

DO NOT IRON - DO NOT DRY-CLEAN - DO NOT AUTOCLAVE - DO NOT USE BLEACH - DO NOT USE ALKALI DETERGENTS - DO NOT USE ALCOHOL

Inspection: Regular inspections of the garment, at least annually, are recommended using radiographic or fluoro operating at 70-90 kV. Lines may indicate cracks; dots may be pinholes, (seen as dark on film, clear on fluoro) - consult your Radiation Safety Officer.
