Controlling dust mites and allergies
Dust mites are microscopic cousins of the spider that thrive in warm human
environments, where they feed on skin akes and pet dander. They ourish on
surfaces where this matter accumulates: carpets, soft furnishing and bedding.
Research shows dust mites (and their faeces) are leading contributors to
allergies and asthma. Research also shows that regular weekly vacuuming with
a vacuum featuring a completely sealed system and a lter can signicantly
reduce the number of dust mites that occupy your home.

Vacuum cleaning tips for best results
Minimise mess creation – have a ‘NO shoes inside’ policy to avoid walking in dirt
and contaminants.
Pick up those small objects before you start. Don’t be tempted to suck up coins,
paper or similar-sized objects – the may block or damage the Vacuum.
Take your time. While your Conrad Meier Vacuum is very efcient, good
vacuuming practice takes time, so don’t rush things.
Dust other areas of your home before you vacuum. If you dust after, you will be
spreading dust over your freshly vacuumed oors.
Vacuuming in multiple directions helps loosen dirt and contaminants, and helps
carpets and rugs from appearing worn.
Make multiple passes over the surface. A single pass could leave embedded dirt
in your carpet.
Have a schedule. Once a week is sufcient for most rooms in your home. High-
trafc areas will need vacuuming more often. If you have pets that shed hair and
dander, daily vacuuming may be needed.
Choose the right attachment: Vacuum head for carpets, rugs and hard oors.
Upholstery Brush for furniture and mattresses. Crevice Tool for crevices and
hard-to-reach places.
Move your furniture. You don’t have to do this every time you vacuum. However,
on occasion, move couches and other furniture to vacuum underneath.
Each time you vacuum, start with an empty Dust Cup. Clean Filters every 3
months. Replace if necessary.

Motor Protection Features
Your Conrad Meier Vacuum features auto cut-off. If the Head, Hose or Exhaust
Outlet becomes blocked, the temperature of the motor will rise. The auto cut-off
will cut power to the motor to prevent over-heating.
When this happens unplug the Power Cord, allow the motor to cool and check
for blockages.
Clean or replace the Filter if necessary
After allowing the motor to cool for 30 minutes plug the Vacuum back in and
check to see if the auto cut-off switch has been reset.
