Installing and recharging the batteries: The batteries are located in the
appropriate compartment underneath the cover; apply a coating of
grease (e.g. Vaseline) to the terminals; connect the batteries as shown
in the attached diagram; make sure the terminals are securely tightened.
The battery charger should be set up in the area where it is planned to
leave the ma-chine for recharging. Use the cable supplied to connect
to the mains supply, normally 220 V 50 Hz; make sure that the supply
voltage is the same as indicated on the battery charger itself. To charge
the batteries connect the connector
M5 , which comes directly from the
battery compartment, to the battery charger connector; apply voltage using
the appropriate but-ton on the charger. The charger will automatically
regulate the charging cur-rent and will turn itself off when the batteries are
recharged.
WARNING: The battery acid may give off harmful fumes. When working
near the batteries use protective glasses and clothes.
DO NOT PLACE ANY METAL TOOLS OF ANY KIND ON THE
BATTERIES.
Recharging the batteries generates explosive gas. Do not
smoke, light flames or make sparks. Make sure the charger is switched off
before disconnecting. Recharge the batteries in a well-ventilated area and
keep the cover open.
WARNING: objects lying on the floor can be thrown at high speed by the
brushes, endangering people and/or property.
The area to be cleaned: In order to increase the effectiveness of the
detergent, the area to be cleaned should first be swept (manually or by
machine) to remove loose dirt that may quickly clog up the suction circuit.

the amount of dirt and the speed of the machine, this will come with
experience; at this point the floor cleaner will come with experience, at
this point the floor cleaner will simultaneously clean and dry the floor:
Particularly dirty floors: Certain floors or environments require
particular attention or even a second pass with the cleaner.
In this case you should make on pass with the wiper raised and the brush
in the working position; in this way the detergent remains on the floor for
longer and will dissolve the tougher dirt. The second pass should be made
with the brush and wiper lowered and at a slower speed.
