TIPS

• A fully charged battery will give continuous cleaning of approx. 25 minutes.
• The battery has a build in self-protection safety. When the surface temperature of the battery exceeds 50°C or gets below 0°C, the battery will stop charging. The charging will continue when the surface temperature of the battery is between 0°C and 45°C.
• During use the surface of the battery can not exceed 65°C. The battery will enter the self-protection mode and the battery will cut off the electricity to the vacuum cleaner. When the surface temperature of the battery goes back below 65°C, the vacuum cleaner can be used again.
• We recommend that you discharge the battery at least once a month and then fully recharge it, to maintain optimal performance.

Maintenance

Check the dust collector and filters regularly to prevent any problems. Empty the dust collector when it is full and clean or replace the filters when they are dirty.

EMPTYING THE DUST COLLECTOR
Empty the dust collector after every use. First remove all accessories before emptying the dust collector.

• Hold the dust collector above a dust bin and unlock the lid with the clip.
• To fully empty the dust collector, calmly shake it above the dust bin and close the lid.

• Re-assemble the vacuum cleaner in reverse order when all the parts are thoroughly dry. You will hear a click when the dust collector is placed correctly.
