(Bleach is defined here as an 8.25% solution of Sodium Hypochlorite)

• Always ensure cover is properly fit to the cushion before replacing it back in use.
  • For Xact® series wheelchair covers, align cover zipper with flat, bottom edge of cushion for proper fit.
  • For Xact® LP2 covers with clear windows, match cover windows to the green “Correct” labels on the cushion for proper fit.
