Using the Liberator Comfort Ramp is a breeze. Just place it on your bed or any comfortable surface. You can adjust it to support your body in different positions as per your preference. For new users, the included Liberator Position Guide is a great resource to start exploring various positions. When it comes to maintenance, you can easily remove the machine - washable microfiber cover and toss it in the washing machine for a quick clean. Remember to use a gentle cycle to keep the cover in good condition. As for the ramp itself, thanks to the moisture - resistant liner, it can withstand normal wear and tear. Store the ramp in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain its shape and quality. Also, avoid exposing it to direct sunlight for long periods as it may affect the color and material over time.
