Use of the Absolute Cushion

If the user finds the cushion uncomfortable or finds it difficult to maintain a stable
position, the following checks should be made:

1. If the user weighs more than 250 lbs. (113.4 kg), verify that he or she is not

compressing the foam such that it is not providing support and pressure relief.

2. Verify that the cushion is oriented properly. The back of the molded foam is

marked with the word,ʺBACKʺ. When the cover is properly installed, the
zipper will be at the back.

3. If the cushion is old, it may not be capable of providing support and should be

replaced.

Cover

CAUTION

The cover is designed to protect the foam against a user’s incontinence and

to provide fire retardency so the cushion must not be used without its cover.

If the cover is torn, it must be replaced.

Cleaning

CAUTION

Machine wash cold. Gentle cycle. Mild detergent. NO fabric softeners or

bleach. Tumble dry low or air dry.
