Before using for the first time Before you use your vacuum cleaner for the first time you should charge the battery for approx. 14-16 hours. With a fully charged battery you can vacuum with model ZB 260 for approx. 9 minutes and with model ZB 264 for approx. 10 minutes. Attaching the wall mounting

. A) To attach the wall mounting select a position near a room socket and remote from any source of dampness. Hold the mounting against the wall and mark the points for the fastening screws. Use a drill to drill the holes for the screws, push in the plastic plugs pro- vided and insert the serews so that they project by just 7 mm. Position the wall mounting, lower it over the two screws and then tighten the screws securely. Les À The appliance can equally well be stored standing on a table, the floor or any other horizontal surface. Ï The wet vacuuming nozzle can be stored in the wall mounting (Fig. B).

Charging (Fig. B) The charger (8) may only be connected +o a power source of 230V, 50Hz. Insert the vacuum cleaner into the wall mounting (8) and check that the jack plug (9) on the wall mounting fits cor- rectly into the charge socket (7) on the vacuum cleaner. The charge control display (5) will come on and charging will begin. lt will also come on if the battery is already fully charged. Always leave your vac- uum cleaner in the wall mounting when not in use in order to guarantee optimal suction power. To return to full suction capacity once a battery has been completely dis- charged requires a charging period of 18 hours. If a fully charged battery works for less than 9 minutes it might be the result of a build up of resistance to charging which oceurs if the vacuum cleaner is always used only for short periods. If this happens you should charge the battery fully and use the vacuum cleaner until the battery is empty. After this recharge the battery. Repeat this procedure if necessary. Information: The battery should not be charged in room temperatures below 0 °C or above 40 °C. The charger can heat up during charg- ing. Using the vacuum cleaner (Figs. C, D) 1 Remove your vacuum cleaner from the wall mounting by pushing it straight upwards. Dry vacuuming To switch on the appliance push the onjoff switch (6) forwards. To switch the appliance off, push the on/off switch backwards (Fig. C).

Wet vacuuming (Fig. D) Remove all dry dust from the dust con- tainer (1). Insert the wet vacuuming nozzle (Fig. D). When in use always hold the vacuum cleaner with the suction opening downwards. The dust container can hold approx.

Recharge your vacuum cleaner after use. Using the crevice nozzle (Fig. E) Pull out the crevice nozzle (12) and fold upwards. To lock in place push the crevice nozzle in. Care and maintenance Les LES LES LES

Hold the vacuum cleaner with the suc- tion opening downwards. Push in the release button (4) and lift the dust container out of the motor unit. Remove the dust filter and liquid col- lector (Fig. F). Empty the dust container (after dry vacuuming see Fig. G, after wet vacu- uming see Fig. H). After wet vacuuming clean the dust container, liquid collector and dust fil- ter in the sink (Fig. J). After dry vacu- uming you can use your normal household vacuum cleaner to clean these parts. If necessary, wash the filter in lukewarm soapy water and then rinse well. Important: Do not wash synthetic parts of the vacuum cleaner in a machine. Be careful that the dust filter is fully dry before you insert it again. After cleaning do not forget to put the dust filter back into the vacuum cleaner before using it again. Damaged or excessively dirty dust fil- ters should be replace. Filters can be obtained as spare parts.

CARD: Ce ca Your vacuum cleaner contains a re- chargable NiCd battery. The vacuum cleaner can be re-charged many times and has a long life-span if the suction power is repeatedly topped up. Should it nonetheless be necessary one day to replace your battery-powered vacuum, please dispose of it with due consideration for the environment. Switch the vacuum cleaner on and let it run until the battery has run down completely. Open the battery vacuum casing (Fig. K). Ensure that the battery has not short- circuited. Remove the batteries and pull the connection leads off the bat- tery connections (Fig. L). Do not put the removed battery into the dustbin but hand it in at a repair workshop or at a public battery col- lecting point. Customer Service Our products are of the highest quality.
