Important safety instructions
●
●
Do not operate the vacuum cleaner without its filter.
Before the appliance is used, the main body as well as any attachments should be checked thoroughly for any defects. If the appliance, for instance, has been dropped onto a hard surface, it must no longer be used: even invisible damage may have adverse effects on the operational safety of the appliance.

Never use the appliance to pick up hot or smouldering material, nor acid or inflammable liquids.
This appliance is not intended for use by any person (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lacking experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
No responsibility will be accepted if damage results from improper use, or if these instructions are not complied with.
This appliance is only intended for domestic use and not for commercial applications.
In order to comply with safety regulations and to avoid hazards, repairs of electrical appliances must be carried out by qualified personnel, including the replacement of the power cord. If repairs are needed, please send the appliance to one of our customer service departments.
The address can be found in the appendix to this manual.
Wall mounting
The wall bracket is designed for storing the appliance and also serves as a charging unit.
Mount the wall bracket vertically, near a wall socket, using the screws provided with the appliance. The two lugs on the bracket must face upwards.
When mounting the bracket, ensure that the power cord leads through the opening on the lower bracket rim, and that it is not jammed at any point.
The crevice tool and the rubber nozzle can be stored on the left side of the bracket.

Charging process
Before using the vacuum cleaner for the first time, the battery must be charged for a period of approximately 15 hours.
- Insert the adapter into a wall socket.
- Place the vacuum cleaner in the wall bracket. The charging process begins automatically and is shown by the charge indicator.
This appliance can remain on charge indefinitely without damage or danger and is therefore fully charged and ready for use at all times.
- Whilst charging, the adapter will become warm. This is perfectly normal and safe and does not indicate a malfunction of any kind.
- If the vacuum cleaner is not being used for a long period of time, the capacity of the battery may decrease by a certain amount. However, full capacity will be restored after several charge/discharge cycles.
Picking up liquid matter
Before picking up liquid matter, ensure that the rubber nozzle is fully inserted in the suction aperture.
Crevice tool
The crevice tool can be inserted into the suction aperture to clean crevices, corners and other areas difficult to reach.
Cleaning
General
● Before cleaning the appliance, remove the vacuum cleaner from the wall
● bracket.
To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not clean the appliance nor the adapter with water and do not immerse them in water.
- If necessary, the housing may be wiped with a damp cloth. Wipe dry afterwards.
To empty the dust container
Reduced vacuuming power despite a fully charged battery pack indicates that the dust container and filter inlay must be emptied.
- Hold the vacuum cleaner with the dust container facing downwards.
- Push the release button, open the dust container in a downward and forward direction, remove the filter and empty it.
- The filter can be cleaned by slightly tapping it or by using a brush. The filter can be separated from its holder by simply pulling it out of its guide.
Should the filter be visibly dirty, it should be thoroughly cleaned with soapy water; make sure to let it dry completely afterwards.
- The filter holder, dust container and attachment tools may be cleaned the same way.
Crevice brush
The crevice brush can be fitted to the crevice tool and is suitable for cleaning uneven surfaces such as computer keyboards etc.
Operation
- Remove the vacuum cleaner from its wall bracket.
- If required, fit any of the nozzle attachments to the suction aperture.
- Switch on the appliance using the On/Off switch.
● Always ensure that the dust container is emptied in good time, before the dust or liquid matter collected reaches the level of the inner suction tube.
- Should you experience a decrease in vacuuming power during operation, switch off the appliance and recharge.
Battery pack
● This appliance contains a nickelcadmium (Ni-Cd) rechargeable battery pack, which may be removed for replacement or disposal. When replacing the battery pack, ensure that only an original battery pack is used.

Ni-Cd
- The battery compartment is located on
● the underside of the appliance. Open the compartment by removing the screw in the compartment cover. Detach the two wires from their respective terminals by slightly opening the fixing screws. If a new battery pack is installed, insert the wires into their respective terminals and tighten the screws again. When connecting the wires, ensure that the colours match the colour-coding on the terminals (red to red).
Remember to protect the environment.
Never dispose of old battery packs in domestic garbage.
Old battery packs must be disposed of through the proper public collection points. This also applies to the battery packs of defective appliances.
Disposal
Do not dispose of old or defective appliances in domestic garbage; this should only be done through public collection points.
