The container installed correctly is
fl
ush with the housing at its entire
edge, the housing tongue
fi
ts in the lower opening near the edge
of the container and the locking button
fi
ts in the upper opening of
the container (VI). A correctly installed container cannot be removed
otherwise than by pushing back the lock button.
Installation of accessories (VII)
Slide one of the attachments or a
fl
exible hose into the opening at
the front of the dust container. It is permissible to vacuum soft sur-
faces, e.g. carpets, upholstery, etc. without an installed attachment
or hose.
The
fl
exible hose joint without the embossed part is designed to be
inserted into the opening of the dust container and the joint with the
embossed part should be inserted over the tip.
The brush attachment is used to clean surfaces that can be easily
scratched. The narrow tip attachment is used to clean hard-to-reach
areas.
Charging the battery
Plug the charger cable plug into the charging socket (IX) and then
plug the charger into the mains socket. The charger is equipped
with a light. A red light indicates that the battery is being charged,
a green light indicates that the charging process is complete or that
the charging device is not connected.
The vacuum cleaner should be under supervision throughout the
charging process. Immediately after charging is complete, discon-
nect the charger from the mains and the vacuum cleaner from the
charger.
WARNING! Leaving the vacuum cleaner with a fully charged
battery connected to the charger will lead to irreparable dam-
age to the battery and may cause
fi
re or electric shock.
It is not possible to use a vacuum cleaner for cleaning while charging
the battery.
Safety instructions for battery charging
Caution! Before starting charging, make sure that the charger body,
cord and plug are not cracked or damaged. It is forbidden to use
a defective or damaged charger! Use only the supplied accessory
charger to charge the batteries. Use of another charger may result in
fi
re or damage to the device. The battery should only be charged in a
closed, dry room, protected against unauthorised access, especially
by children. Do not use the charger without the constant supervision
of an adult! If you need to leave the room where the vacuum clean-
er is being charged, disconnect the charger from the mains by re-
moving the charger plug from the socket. If smoke, odours, etc. are
escaping from the charger, remove the charger plug from the socket
immediately! The product is supplied with an uncharged battery and
should therefore be charged according to the procedure described in
the manual before use. Li-ion (lithium-ion) batteries do not have the
so-called “memory e
ff
ect”, which allows them to be recharged at any
time. However, it is recommended to discharge the battery during
normal operation and then charge it to full capacity. If, due to the
nature of work, it is not possible to use the battery in such a manner
every time, it should be done at least every several work cycles.
Never discharge the batteries by closing the battery contacts, as this
will cause irreparable damage! Also, do not check the battery charge
status by closing the contacts and checking sparking.
Battery storage
If possible, it is recommended to disconnect the battery from the
product for storage. Proper storage conditions will help to extend
the life of the battery. The battery lasts for about 500 charge-dis-
charge cycles. Store the battery in a temperature range from 0 to 30
degrees Celsius at a relative humidity of 50%. To store the battery
for a longer period of time, it should be charged to approx. 70%
of its capacity. In case of prolonged storage, the battery should be
periodically charged once a year. Do not over-discharge the bat-
tery as this will shorten its life and may cause irreparable damage.
During storage, the battery will gradually discharge due to leakage.
The self-discharge process depends on the storage temperature,
the higher the temperature, the faster the discharge process. If the
batteries are stored incorrectly, the electrolyte may leak. In case of
leakage, secure the leak with a neutralising agent, in case of elec-
trolyte contact with eyes, rinse eyes thoroughly with water, and seek
medical attention immediately. It is forbidden to use the device with
a damaged battery. If the battery is completely used, return it to a
specialist waste disposal centre.
Transport of batteries
Lithium-ion batteries are treated as hazardous materials according
to legal regulations. The user of the device can transport the prod-
uct with the battery and the batteries themselves by land. Additional
conditions do not have to be met. If you entrust transport to third
parties (e.g. courier service), follow the regulations for the transport
of hazardous goods. Before shipping, please contact a quali
fi
ed per-
son. It is forbidden to transport damaged batteries. During transport,
the disassembled batteries should be removed from the product,
the exposed contacts should be secured, e.g. sealed with insula-
tion tape. Protect the batteries in the packaging in such a way that
they do not move inside the packaging during transport. National
regulations for the transport of hazardous materials must also be
observed.
Preparing for operation
Check the vacuum cleaner tank, empty it of waste, if necessary.
Check the
fi
lter. If the
fi
lter is dirty, dry clean with a compressed
air stream of no more than 0.3 MPa or wet under a stream of run-
ning, lukewarm water. Do not clean the
fi
lter in dishwashers or with
a high-pressure water jet. If dirt cannot be removed from the
fi
lter,
replace it with a new one. Check the condition of the
fi
lter seals,
