CHARGING THE VACUUM CLEANER
Note: Before using your vacuum cleaner for the first time, charge the battery for approximately 3 hours. A fully charged battery will give approximately 25 minutes of continuous vacuum cleaning on regular mode and approximately 15 minutes of use in high power mode.
There are 2 ways to charge the unit:
1. Direct charge
• Make sure the battery is properly inserted into the main body, and that the unit is turned off.
• Simply connect the plug of the adapter in the socket in the handle of the unit, and then plug it into a wall socket.
• The indicator light will flash once the device has made contact with the adaptor and will keep blinking while the unit is charging When the unit is fully charged, the LED indicator will keep bright for 50 www.KALORIK.com
6
VC 44287 - 170120
seconds and will then automatically turn off, to signify that the battery is fully charged.
2. Charge on base
• Place the base on a flat, horizontal, stable surface that is not exposed to direct sunlight or humidity, and far from any heat
source.
• Remove the rubber cover on the base to access the charging pins on top of the charging station.
• Make sure the appliance is set to off, and all the accessories are removed.
• Plug the charger into the side of the base, and then plug it into a wall socket.
• Place the battery into the charging base, making sure that the connection pins on the base are straight and not crooked. The battery should insert perfectly into the base
• The LED light on the base lights up red, and will start blinking, to show that the battery is charging.
• When the battery is fully charged, the LED indicator light should glow solid red (it will no longer blink).
Note: To remove the battery from the base, simply press the 2 buttons on each side of the battery and lift it out from its cradle.
Note: We recommend keeping your appliance always in charge when not in use, this way it will keep a full charge and will always be ready for use when you need it. www.KALORIK.com

Important: The charger and its cord cannot be repaired. Should they be damaged, they must be discarded. Contact customer service to replace them.
Do not charge the battery if the room temperature falls below 32°F
(0°C) or rises to more than 131°F (55°C).
Notes and tips:
• The charger might warm up during use. This is perfectly normal. It will cool down as soon as the charging process is over.
• When you notice that the motor is turning less quickly, it means that the battery needs to be charged completely.
• It can be useful from time to time (once a month) to completely discharge the battery, and then completely recharge it, to maintain optimal performance.
• Recharge after every use.
• The battery is equipped with a self-protection feature. During charging, if the surface of the battery gets over 131°F / 55°C, or below 32°F / 0°C, the battery will stop charging until its surface temperature remains within the 32-113°F / 0-45 °C range. Likewise, during discharging, if the battery temperature exceeds 158°F /
70°C, the lights will flash for 5 seconds, and the battery will turn itself off for protection. It will start working again when the temperature drops below 149°F / 65 °C.
USING YOUR VACUUM CLEANER
• Once your appliance is fully charged, remove it from the base, holding it by its handle.
• Switch it on by pressing the ON/OFF switch.
• Press the ON/OFF switch a second time to activate the high-power mode.
• When you are finished, press the ON/OFF switch again, to switch off the appliance, before putting it back into the charging base.
Tip: In the back the charging base you can find a storage compartment, where you can store the accessories supplied safely and without risk of misplacing or losing them. www.KALORIK.com
