CHARGING THE INTERNAL BATTERIES
• The internal Lithium battery is supplied with a small amount of
charge but it will be necessary to initially charge for 4-5 hours
approx. before using the appliance.
• Ensure that the power switch is the OFF.
• Insert the adaptor cord into the DC jack at the end of the
vacuum and plug the adaptor into the mains supply socket.
• The indicator will illuminate red and flash to show that the unit
is in charging mode.
• Allow the unit to fully charge. When the unit is fully charged
the indicator will turn blue. The vacuum can now be used up
to 20 minutes.
Notes
• The indicator will turn red when the battery is running low and
needs to be recharged. If recharge is not started, the indicator
will flash until the vacuum powers off.
• Only charge or recharge the vacuum indoors.
• Do not recharge the battery when the air temperature is
below 0°C or above 37°C.
• Batteries become hot after heavy use and will become difficult
to charge. Allow to cool and wait about an hour before
recharging.
