Before use
- Remove all packaging materials.
- Clean the device, if necessary, with a wet cloth and some mild detergent (also refer to “CLEANING AND STORAGE”).
- Check the device for any damage before each use. Do not use the device if the power cord or battery charger is damaged or when not functioning properly.
Charging the battery
Attach the battery charger (13) to the device through the charger socket
(12) before connecting the battery charger to the power supply. Make sure the
power supply indicated on the battery charger corresponds with the local
voltage. A blue light at the charger indication light (11) will turn on and
flash to indicate the device is charging and all four LED lights will turn ON
when the battery is fully charged. It takes approximately 2 hours to fully
charge the battery.
Note: We recommend that you unplug your charger when charging is
completed.
Note: Always make sure the device is fully charged before using it.
Filling the water tank
Switch the device OFF and disconnect it from the charger. Pull out the water
tank and remove the cap. Fill the water tank (6) with clean water (or
distilled water) by slightly tilting the device forward. Once the water tank
is nearly full, replace the water tank cap.
Note: The appliance must be disconnected from the charger when filling
the water tank.
Note: Do not add harsh cleaning materials, caustics, acids, scented
perfumes, oils or cleaning products not intended for this type of cleaning to
the water or the water tank as this may damage the unit or make it unsafe to
use. Only use clear and purified water. The use of distilled water is
recommended in areas with hard water to avoid lime scale deposits inside the
product.
Attaching the cleaning wipes
The cleaning wipes stick to wipe attachment area (1) with Velcro. Position the
selected wipe in front of the attachment area evenly at the entire length,
then press the surface to secure wipe it, as shown in Figure 1
Remove the wipe by simply tearing it off Figure 2
Emery wipes can be used to remove tough stains and grease from surfaces while
the microfiber wipes give a shiny and streak-less finishing for cleaned or
less dirty-surfaces.
For maximum results, wipes should be replaced regularly according to their
cleanliness. Wipes can be machine washed at 40℃. Do not put in dryer.
USING YOUR WINDOW CLEANER
Spray
Hold the unit by the handle and press the water spray trigger (5) as show
in Figure 3. Ensure the spray (3) is directed towards the area to be cleaned
and cover the surface in water.
Clean
Then turn the device and wash the surface with either one of the wipes
attached to the unit. If necessary, a mild glass cleaner can be sprayed on the
window or a few drops of vinegar added to the water in the water tank.
Vacuum
Once completed turn the unit again and switch on the vacuum function with
the vacuum switch (9) by pressing it once as shown in Figure 4. Keep the
device in horizontal position and move the squeegee (2) over the surface in a
gentle, top-to-bottom movement to vacuum and remove and remove the excess
water and dirt.
Warning: Do not spray on eyes or on electrical/electronic components,
such as a plug, switch, cable, stereo, equipment, computer screens, household
appliances etc.
Warning: Use the vacuum function only to vacuum liquids used during the
cleaning process
Tip: With the use of the emery wipe the device does not need detergent,
but in case of heavy dirt and grease a few drops vinegar can be added to the
water to help degreasing and unclog your windows. This is an environment
friendly and economic solution.
After use
- Turn off the vacuum function by pressing the Vacuum switch (9)
- Wait half a minute and lift the water tank cap. Remove the filter and empty the water tank (4) by turning the device upside down above the sink.
- Wash the filter carefully before placing it back in the unit. The collected water from the vacuum cleaner is recycled through this filter and it is therefore important that the filter is cleaned after each use.
Note:
- Always switch off the device and unplug from the charger before cleaning.
- Never immerse the device and/or the power cord in water or other liquids.
CLEANING AND STORAGE

- Lift the water tank cap, remove the filter and empty the water tank by turning the device upside down above the sink.
- Clean the device and accessories with a damp cloth and a mild detergent and allow to dry completely.
- Wash the filter carefully before placing it back in the unit. The collected water from the vacuum cleaner is recycled though this filter and it is therefore important that the filter is cleaned after each use.

device. This could cause damage to the product.
Rinsing the water tank
To clean the water tank, we recommend that you fill it with water, close the
lid and shake the unit vigorously.
This will release any lime-scale deposits that have collected on the bottom of
the tank. Pour the water out by holding the cleaner upside down.
Lime-scale removal
To extend the life of your device, it is recommended to descale the appliance
every six months. Switch the device off and remove the charger from the
socket. Fill the tank with 130ml of 50℃ hot water and add one or two descaling
tablets or solution commercially available kettle cleaning solution can be
used for this purpose). Pour the water out as described above after 30
minutes.
Storage
Make sure that the device and the attachments are completely clean and dry
before you store the device.
