ASSEMBLING THE VACUUM CLEANER

After unit transportation or storage under cold (winter) conditions, it is necessary to keep it for at least two hours at room temperature before switching on.

Battery charging

Before using the unit for the first time or after a long period of inactivity, the battery (10) needs to be charged for at least 6 hours; for optimal performance, recharge it for at least 6 hours after the first discharge. A fully charged battery (10) provides approximately 15 minutes of continuous vacuum cleaner operation.

• Insert the plug of the power adapter (23) into the connection socket (12), insert the power adapter into the mains socket, the indicator (3) will be flashing red (pic. 1).
• When the battery charging cycle is finished, the indicator (3) color will change to green.
• Continuous battery (10) recharging cycles should not exceed three hours.
• It is not recommended to start charging the battery immediately after its full discharge. Let it cool down to normal temperature for a few minutes.
• If you are not going to use the vacuum cleaner for a long time, do not leave the battery fully discharged – partial charging is enough to maintain its proper operation.

Safety measures when handling the battery:

For optimal battery performance and to prevent its damage, smoking and burning, observe the following rules:

• Charge the battery (10) at the temperature from +10^ to +40^ . It is recommended to use the vacuum cleaner within temperature range of from -10^ to +45^ . Failure to keep within the temperature limits can negatively affect battery performance.
• To charge the battery, use only the original power adapter (23).
• Do not expose the battery to high temperatures (above 80^ ) and direct sunlight and do not throw it into fire.
• Do not disassemble the battery or try to repair it by yourself.
• Do not short-circuit the battery.

• Do not expose the battery to water or immerse it into water.

• Do not compress or deform the battery.
