Wrinkles in Vinyl – Storage and shipping can cause wrinkles of the vinyl on your Winco chair. This is normal.
Please allow 1-2 weeks at room temperature (approx. 70 degrees) to allow for vinyl to expand back to original
appearance
GENERAL CARE & CLEANING:
• REGULARLY lubricate pivot points on the recline mechanism with a lubricant approved by your facility.
Periodically position the chair back into full recline position to keep the gas cylinder lubricated.
• Periodically inspect tightness of all screws, bolts, and nuts.
Winco furnishings are built to provide durable reliable service when properly cared for.
In general all of our products should be 1) Cleaned 2) Rinsed 3) Allowed to air dry.
It is important to note that disinfecting a product is not the same as cleaning the product. Disinfectants alone will
not provide adequate cleaning, they do not have grease or oil cutting properties to remove grime or hair and skin
oils. Over time, the appearance and feel and performance of your upholstery may diminish if not cleaned properly
CLEANING:
Remove grime, hair and body oils; Your furnishings should be cleaned with mild soap & water solution and a damp
cloth on a regular basis (especially where skin & hair make contact with upholstery). Avoid harsh detergents or
chemicals that could damage the upholstery or finish of your recliner. If the furnishing is disinfected with chemicals
or bleach, it MUST be wiped off using only clean water on a damp cloth and then be allowed to air dry. Failure to
rinse upholstery with clean water can result in a build-up of residues over time that can dry out the upholstery and
cause changes to the look and feel of the upholstery and eventually can lead to cracking.
