Battery Level Indicator Status Description

Notes:

• Fully charge the vacuum cleaner before using it for the first time. This will take about 3.5 hours.
• The vacuum cleaner cannot be used while charging.
• Once the vacuum cleaner is fully charged, the indicator will turn off after 20 seconds, and the vacuum cleaner will then enter the energy-saving mode.
