Charging The Vacuum Cleaner - Hitachi PV-XH3M Instruction Manual

Charging the vacuum cleaner

Charge the battery before using the vacuum cleaner. The battery is not fully charged at the time of purchase.
It generally takes about 2.5 hours to charge the battery. (It might take longer to charge the battery depending on
factors such as the ambient temperature and how long the vacuum cleaner was in use.)
To change the vacuum cleaner using the charging station
Attach the AC adapter to the charging station.
(P.EN-11) Then, plug the AC adapter into an outlet.
→
When unplugging the AC adapter, hold the AC adapter. Do not pull on the Cord.
CAUTION
Pulling on the cord might damage the cord and cause short-circuiting, resulting in electric shock or fire.
Set the vacuum cleaner on the charging station.
If you want to charge the vacuum cleaner by

lnsert the charging station protrusion into the
attachment groove of the vacuum cleaner.
When the vacuum cleaner is set on the charging
station and the AC adapter is connected, the
battery indicator turns on.
When fully charged, the battery indicator turns off.
If you will not be using the vacuum cleaner for a long time, unplug the AC adapter and remove the battery from the vacuum cleaner.
While the AC adapter is connected to the vacuum cleaner, the battery will be automatically and periodically charged when the
remaining battery level becomes low. However, if the vacuum cleaner is left unused for two months or longer, the remaining battery
level might become low, even if the vacuum cleaner is connected to the AC adapter and the AC adapter is plugged in. If this
happens, before using the vacuum cleaner, remove the connector of the AC adapter from the vacuum cleaner and then insert the
connector back into the vacuum cleaner.
If you disconnect the AC adapter from the vacuum cleaner after the battery indicator turns off (indicating that the battery is fully
charged), and then reconnect the AC adapter to the vacuum cleaner, the battery indicator turns on (indicating that the battery is
being charged), but this does not indicate a problem with the vacuum cleaner.
While the vacuum cleaner is being charged, the vacuum cleaner or AC adapter might become hot, but this does not indicate a
problem with the vacuum cleaner.
The vacuum cleaner will not operate even if the control buttons is pressed while charging.
