Proper Cleaning
Regularly cleaning your lift chair is essential for preventing the accumulation of germs and dirt. When cleaning, it is crucial to avoid harsh chemicals and ensure that the lift chair is unplugged. If the lift chair is spilled on, you’ll want to make sure to clean it promptly so that it doesn’t stain or do further damage to the mechanisms.
Monthly Cleaning
-
Use a warm rag with mild soap or fabric cleaner to wipe down the fabric.
-
Use a warm rag with mild soap to wipe down the motor, hand control, and cord.
*Be sure to allow all parts to dry before returning to using the lift chair. We recommend cleaning before bed to let it dry over night.
Always Use Your Lift Chair Correctly
Using your lift chair correctly will help prevent damage and wear and tear. To help retain life in the chair, avoid “plopping” into your lift chair, and always take your time and sit down slowly.

Do not stand on the chair
