CHARGING

IMPORTANT!
Before using it for the first time, charge the appliance.

– Plug the cord into the device.
– Connect the charger to the mains.
The indicator light on the handle tells you that the unit is charging.

The indicator light will turn off when the battery is fully charged (maximum 16H).
For optimal charging, you must leave the charger on until the indicator light goes off.
The appliance can remain permanently on charge without any risk. The charger might heat up slightly, which is a perfectly normal phenomenon. However, it is best to unplug the charger in case of prolonged absence (holidays, etc.).

USE

Use the right accessories.

For corners (baseboards, radiators…) and places that are hard to reach, the telescopic crevice tool in the vacuum inlet.| For flat surfaces, use the mini Delta head that can quickly vacuum a wider area.

Turn your appliance on

Adjusting the power level

Position 0: stop
Position 1 (Soft): furniture, fragile surfaces
Position 2 (Booster): tiled floor, parquet…

depending on the model: these systems are specific to certain models or are accessories available as an option.

When the appliance is being used, the indicator light is off.
The indicator light flashes to alert you that the battery is running low.
When the battery is discharged, to avoid damage, a security system (automatic ‘Cut Off’) stops the appliance and the indicator light continues to flash for a few seconds. In this case, put the On/off switch to 0 and put the appliance into charge.

Empty the dust compartment

NOTE: to clean the dust compartment and/or the separator, run it/them under warm water and leave it/them to dry or wipe with a soft cloth. Never wash the dust compartment and dust separator in a dishwasher.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Clean the foam filter.
IMPORTANT: Never operate the vacuum cleaner without the motor filter foam.
Clean the filter foam with warm soapy water. Rinse and dry: Make sure the filter foam is dry before you put it back in, for which purpose it must dry for at least 12H.
Only a dry and clean filter can ensure optimum suction power.
NOTE: your vacuum cleaner comes with an additional foam filter so you can use the appliance while the original foam filter is drying.

ATTENTION!
Do not use any corrosive or abrasive cleaning products.
Never wash the motor protection foam filter in the dishwasher.

IMPORTANT: Clean the foam filter at least once a month. It is recommended that you clean the filter foam more frequently if you see a drop in the efficiency of your vacuum cleaner.
Replace the filter when it is damaged. You can purchase a replacement filter by contacting your nearest Rowenta Authorised Service Centre.
