OPERATION

Wall charging base installation

• First, fix the wall charging base. To do so, we recommend you place a protective film (not included) on the wall’s surface. Then, put the charging base on the wall and make 3 holes to be drilled in order to fix the base. Take into account the height of the installation, it is important that suction base rests on the floor to avoid the charging base from holding all the vacuum cleaner’s weight. Make 3 holes on the wall and fix the charging base with the supplied M4 x 32 nuts and screws.
• It must be installed at 102,5 mm from the floor.
• Make sure that the charging base is securely fixed on the wall, place the vacuum cleaner on the charging base as shown in figure 5 by putting the vacuum cleaner’s charging terminals into contact with the charging base’s ones (plastic tab).
• Once the wall charging base is installed, the charging port must be connected to the power adapter, and then the device can be charged by sliding it from top to bottom into the wall charging base. Fig. 5

Charge and display

• When the battery percentage is 20 % or below, the device will automatically enter low consumption mode. It is recommended to charge the device when it reaches this percentage.
• The battery must be charged on the fast charge base while connected to the device. Connect one of the ends of the power adapter to the power supply and the other to the fast charge base.Fig. 6
• During charging, the charge light indicator will turn on red and the display will show the current charge percentage. When the device is fully charge, the battery indicator will turn green and the display will show 100 %.Fig. 7
• It can also be charged without the fast charge base when the battery is installed in the device or when it is outside. Connect the adapter and connect the other end to the battery, paying attention to the direction.
