General battery information
The rechargeable battery is supplied
not fully charged.
Charge the battery completely before
using it for the first time. Allow approxi-
mately 4 hours for this.
It is essential to charge each new bat-
tery for the first time in the PowerUnit
(Triflex vacuum), in order to deactivate
shipping mode and activate the maxi-
mum power in the battery.
Once the battery is fully charged, the
battery charging state indicator
switches off to conserve energy.
You can use the vacuum cleaner for up
to 17 minutes if you are using it in its
fully assembled state at the maximum
power level.
If, however, you are using the
PowerUnit on its own and select the
lowest power level, you can vacuum for
up to 60 minutes.
Charging the battery (without wall
mounting) (Fig. 11)
You can store the vacuum cleaner up-
right and charge the battery directly.
 Connect the PowerUnit to the Elec-
trobrush to provide a secure base for
the vacuum cleaner.
 Swing the vacuum cleaner forwards
until the Electrobrush connector audi-
bly clicks into place.
 Plug the supplied charging cable into
the charging socket on the bottom of
the battery.
 Plug the charger into an electrical
outlet.
The charging process will start.

tery charging state indicator”.
