7.2 Vacuuming / Sterilising.
In order that the UV lamp to be fully effective
against dust mites and bacteria, it is important
that the area is exposed to the UV-C light for
adequate time.
Please adhere to the following guidelines:
1. It is best to start in one corner of the mattress.
2. Press the unit flat against the cleaning surface.
Note
: The UV lamp and LED headlights will only turn on when all three UV
safety switches (wheels) underneath the head are in full downward
pressure contact with the surface to be cleaned. The weight of the vacuum
cleaner is enough to do this.
3. Ensure that the unit is moved in a smooth and steady motion.
4. Ensure that every part of the mattress is covered.
5. With double beds, it is advised to clean one side at a time.
6. Move the UV vacuum cleaner at a speed less than 20 seconds per meter
and repeat 3 times.
7. It is advisable to clean both sides of the mattress, if possible.
8. We suggest a similar method for bedding such as duvets and pillows.
9. For older and used mattresses, it is best to clean on a daily basis for the
first 7 days and then once a month thereafter.
10. For new mattresses, it will be sufficient to clean once a month only.
11. If cleaning rugs, mats, etc. follow the same method.
