noteThe green highlightedoptions denote standard or default chair specification.
SIZEKey thoughts:
n 3 measurements are required for selecting a chair; seat depth, seat height and seat width – see below drawings for clarity.
n When selecting a chair size, prioritise the chair measurements in the following order: seat depth, seat height then seat width. This will ensure the selected size is the right overall proportion for the user.
n If you cannot find the size you need, check out the other chairs in our range or contact us as we may be able to supply a special size.

Notes:
n Be aware of the size adjustments possible after delivery.
n In some circumstances it may be appropriate to compromise 1-2” on size.
n The overall size of chair cannot be changed after delivery. For example you cannot change a Small chair into a Medium.

PRESSUREKey thoughts:
n Selection of pressure cushions is a clinical decision which involves many variables including a risk assessment tool. Professional input from a Tissue Viability Nurse or District Nurse may be required at this stage.
n Vapour permeable fabric as standard on seat base, legrest and backrest.

and filling can be customised to the user.

Multi-adjustable Pillow Backrest is highly effective
for users with a kyphosis or a scoliosis. Excellent for postural accommodation

MALLS-0-CF1-00
Lateral Support Backrest

encourages a midline sitting position and is suitable for users who require
increased lateral support. Users with neurological

for flexible posture.

POSTUREKey thoughts:
n Tilt-in-space can significantly improve midline sitting so increased lateral support may not be necessary if the user tends to slump mildly to one side.
n The Multi-adjustable Pillow Backrest is more adjustable than the Lateral Support Backrest and Adjustable Lateral Support System because filling can be removed to accommodate different postural requirements.

cleaning instructions for the fabric
Clean and care for the fabric on a regular basis and it will maintain its condition and appearance.
The new generation of Microfibre cleaning cloths without soap are extremely effective for general care and maintenance. You can also wipe clean regularly with a damp cloth to remove dust particles and light soiling. It is recommended to vacuum the upholstery once a week.
Most stains can be removed by wiping clean. Remove spillages promptly (within 15 minutes) with cold water. For extreme soiling control use a 5% Sodium Hypochlorite (Bleach) solution.
Do not machine wash or dry clean.
Do not apply other chemicals such as polish, solvents or stain remover.
