Can Car Vacuum Cleaners Be Left in the Car During Summer?
2 Answers
Car vacuum cleaners can be left in the car during summer. Here are the relevant details: 1. Types: There are generally two types: one that uses batteries, which can be charged at home and used independently of the car, and another that draws power from the cigarette lighter, designed for plug-and-play use with power circuits meeting the cigarette lighter's supply standards. 2. Precautions: Before using a car vacuum cleaner, check if the power fuse can handle the startup and operating current of the vacuum cleaner. When the dust reaches a certain level or after use, clean it by pressing the clip on the dust cover to open and remove the dirt. It's advisable to wear a mask while vacuuming, as using the cleaner can stir up dust, making it easier to inhale. Never place hands or feet under the suction opening to avoid danger. Watch for any blockages in the suction tube, unusual noises, or smoke during use. If any of these occur, stop using the vacuum immediately. Clear any blockages before continuing use; otherwise, the vacuum's motor may burn out.
The temperature inside the car gets too high in summer, often exceeding 50 degrees Celsius. It's really unsafe to leave a car vacuum cleaner in the car for long periods. Over the years of using vacuum cleaners, I've learned that lithium batteries can easily swell, leak, or even catch fire under high temperatures—this is not an exaggeration. Once, I forgot to take it out, and the plastic casing softened, nearly damaging the dashboard. Experts recommend not placing it near the dashboard; it's best to take it home after use or store it in a cool place in the garage. Safety comes first, especially in hot weather, as small issues can lead to big disasters.
