→Fig. 13 - 16

Battery runtimes

Here you can find information about battery runtimes depending on the battery that is in use.

Notes

• The battery runtime depends on the suction mode selected, the accessories used and the floor covering.
  The battery runtime may vary when vacuuming on carpets in particular.

- The display shows the estimated remaining runtime of the appliance in minutes. Actual values may vary.

Runtime (up to) 3,0 Ah 4,0 Ah Power+ 5,0 Ah
Eco mode with non-electrical accessories	60 80 100
Eco mode with electrical floor nozzle	50 65 80
Auto mode with electrical floor nozzle	17 25 30
Turbo mode with electrical floor nozzle	10 11 13

Notes

■ Like every Li-ion battery, the batteries from the Power for ALL 18 V series wear out over time, meaning that the battery capacity and the runtime decrease. This is a natural aging process and not the result of a material error, manufacturing error or material defect.
■ You can delay natural wear by taking the following measures:

- Activate the battery protection function on your appliance. This function prevents the battery from fully charging and discharging and thus extends its service life.

- Do not store the battery for an extended period of time if it is fully charged or fully discharged.

Operating the appliance

Note: Use Turbo mode (normal mode) for best results when cleaning hard floors and deep cleaning rugs and carpets. Switch to Auto mode or Eco mode when it is too difficult to push the nozzle on rugs or carpets.
