Mattress / Bedding Cleaning Guidelines
In order for the UV-C light to be fully effective against bacteria and other
pathogens, the area to be cleaned must be exposed for a suffi cient time.
We suggest the following guidelines:
•
Start in one corner of the bed.
•
Keep the vacuum fl at against the mattress.
•
Move the vacuum in a smooth and steady motion.
•
To make sure that every part of the mattress is exposed, follow a
predetermined pattern.
•
With double (or larger) beds, clean one side of the bed at a time.
•
If possible, clean both sides of the mattress.
•
With a used mattress, clean on a daily basis for seven days, then as much as
once a week, at the least once a month. With a new mattress, once a month
cleaning is usually suffi cient.
•
If cleaning carpets using the UV-C head, follow a similar method.
