• The manufacturer is not responsible for damage caused by improper use of the appliance and the accessories and its warranty for the appliance does not apply in situations when the safety warnings above are not complied with. Failure to replace or maintain all filters regularly according to the instructions in Chapter IV., V., VI and also using non–original filters, the properties of which resulted in failure or damage of the vacuum cleaner, is also understood to be improper use of the appliance.

USE OF THE APPLIANCE:

• The product is intended for home use and similar (in shops, offices and similar workplaces, in hotels, motels and other residential environments, in facilities providing accommodation with breakfast). It is not intended for commercial use!
• Never use the vacuum cleaner nor touch the adaptor / charging stand with wet hands or feet!
• Never use (switch on) the vacuum cleaner if it is being charged!
• Always switch off the vacuum cleaner when charging the battery and after the vacuum cleaner was used.
• Do not vacuum sharp objects (e.g. glass, shatter), hot, flammable, explosive items (e.g. ash, hot cigarette butts, gasoline, thinners and aerosol vapours) or greases (e.g. fats, oils), caustic agents (e.g. acids, solvents). Vacuuming these objects may lead to damage of the dust filters or the vacuum cleaner.
• Pores of the micro filters may be clogged when vacuuming very fine dust. Thus, air permeability will be reduced and the suction performance will drop. In this case, micro–filters have to be cleaned before the container is full. Do not use the vacuum cleaner to vacuum dirt produced during/after construction such as plasterboard dust, fine sand, cement, dust from construction, parts of plaster etc. If this dirt / loose construction materials / loose construction materials into the aggregate, it poses a danger of damage. The warranty repair does not cover this.

ACCESSORIES AND ASSEMBLY OF THE APPLIANCE:

• Install the charging stand, the adapter, the vacuum cleaner and the appliance within sufficient distance from flammable objects (e.g. curtains, drapes, wood, etc.), heat sources (e.g. oven, stove, etc.) and wet surfaces (e.g. sinks, wash–basins etc.).

VACUUM CLEANER PREPARATION

Remove all packing material, take out the vacuum cleaner and the accessories. Remove all possible adhesion foils, stick-on labels or paper from the appliance.

VACUUM CLEANER ASSEMBLY
When assembling the vacuum cleaner, follow the procedure indicated in Fig. 1.
In accordance with the required use, choose suitable accessories (C1, C2, C3) or use the vacuum cleaner without accessories C (Fig. 4). CHARGING THE ACCUMULATOR
Turn the vacuum cleaner off prior to charging! Connect the adaptor to the charging connector and plug it to the mains (ETA1442). According to Fig. 2, place the vacuum cleaner on the charging stand and connect to the power supply (ETA3442/ETA5442). The standard charging time is approx. 5 hours. The status and progress of charging is indicated by indicator A2.

Warning

• Let the vacuum cleaner recharge as soon as its suction performance is weaker.
• When using the vacuum cleaner for an extended period of time or in a hot environment, the accumulator might be too hot for charging. Let the cumulator cool down prior to charging.

OPERATING TIMES

Approx. 15 minutes| Approx. 15 minutes| Approx. 20 minutes
Note:** The stated operating times are based on ETA‘s internal testing and only apply to a new and fully charged battery. Depending on the age and wear of the battery, the operating time decreases.

INSTALLING THE CHARGING STAND ON THE WALL
To install the charging stand D on the wall, use the holes D2 on its back. Mount the charging stand D on the wall using a suitable connecting material.

Warning

• Make sure that the electric socket is sufficiently close to the mounted stand.
• Check that there is no electrical, telephone, water or other similar installation in the wall at the place of the mounting of the stand.

USE OF VACUUM CLEANER

Let the vacuum cleaner charge sufficiently prior to using.

Vacuuming dry impurities
Select the suitable accessories (C1, C2).

Vacuuming wet impurities
Rubber scraper C1 end–to–end to the hole in the dust container B. Push the scraper slightly to the surface that you want to clean and hold the vacuum cleaner tilted in the angle of about 30 degrees. Make sure that the scraper is constantly in contact with the surface during vacuum cleaning.

Warning

• When vacuuming wet impurities, the vacuum cleaner cannot be turned with the dust container upside down, laid down or bent to one side or shaken.
• If the level of the liquid in the container reaches the maximum gauge (120 ml), stop vacuuming the liquid.
• After every use of the vacuum cleaner for vacuuming liquids or wet impurities empty and wipe thoroughly the container.

REMOVING THE DUST CONTAINER AND FILTER

DUST CONTAINER REMOVAL
When taking out the dust container B follow the procedure indicated in Fig. 1. Dispose of dirt contained in the dust container with regular household waste. An emptied and cleaned container is to be put back into the vacuum cleaner in reverse order.

REPLACING THE HEPA FILTER
When removing the HEPA filter, proceed according to Fig. 1. Insert the new/clean HEPA filter into the vacuum cleaner in a reverse order.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Warning

• The maximum suction effect can only be achieved with a clean HEPA filter and an empty dust container.
• We recommend cleaning the HEPA filter each time when the dust container is emptied.
• When vacuuming very fine dust, the HEPA filter pores may become clogged, which reduces air permeability and the suction performance. In this case, it is required to clean the HEPA filter even when the tank is not full.

Clean the surface of the vacuum cleaner, adapter and the charging stand with a soft damp cloth; do not use any rough and aggressive cleaning agents!

Accessories
After any vacuuming it is recommended to check visually the brushes or collectors for possible impurities. If there are some impurities, remove them.

Dust container
Use a wet cloth to clean the surface of the container B. Rinse the inside of the container B with water. Rinse the separator B2 under running water. Allow all the parts to dry out properly before their re-use.

HEPA filter
Shake out the input HEPA filter B1 gently, or blow it out. If the HEPA filter is very dirty, you can rinse it under running lukewarm water. Allow it to dry out properly.

Caution

• If you clean the HEPA filter with water, its filtration properties will deteriorate. The filter cannot be washed more than three times. After that, a new filter needs to be purchased.
• We recommend that you replace the HEPA filter twice a year.
• The HEPA filter is not suitable for washing in the dishwasher.
• Failure to clean or replace the HEPA filter as required may cause a defect of the vacuum cleaner!
