Hold the appliance and the bat-
tery cartridge firmly when installing or removing
battery cartridge. Failure to hold the appliance and

your hands and result in damage to the appliance and
battery cartridge and a personal injury.
To install the battery cartridges, align the tongues on the

is becoming empty, the cleaner automatically switches
a power source, so it continues working with the second
battery.
