Product Features

Assembly

Wall Mounting

The product can be wall mounted, if desired, using the wall mount bracket, screws and anchors supplied. To wall mount the vac, refer to gures B, C, D and E.

• Figure B - Mark the location of the screw holes (within reach of an electrical outlet

for chargeing the vac while it is on the wall

bracket).

• Figure C - Insert the charger cord into the

curved slot in the wall mount bracket leaving

approximately 8-9 inches (203mm - 227mm)

excess as shown.

• Figure D - Hang the vac on the wall by placing the opening on the base of the vac over the hooks in the wall mount bracket as shown in gure D.

• Figure E - Insert the jack plug into the charging socket.

Charging the battery

From new, the rechargeable cells of the product need a minimum charge time of 24 hours to ensure full power. We suggest you fully discharge the product when it is used for the first time as this will help the cells recharge faster.

• The switch must be in the off (“O”) position, the

product will not charge if it is in any other position.

• Figure F - Plug the jack plug of the charger into the charging socket of the tool. Plug the charger into any standard 120 Volt 60 Hz electrical outlet. The charging indicator will be lit.

While charging, the charger may get warm, this is perfectly normal and safe. It can remain on charge indefinitely without damage or danger. It

is not possible to “overcharge” the battery cells

with the charger provided.

• The charging indicator will be lit as long as the

appliance is connected to the plugged-in charger.

WARNING: Do not charge the

battery at ambient temperatures below 39°F

(4°C) or above 104°F (40°C).

Use

Switching on and off

• Figure G - To start, slide the On/Off switch forward (i.e. “O”= Off, “I” = On).

• To stop, slide the switch back.

• Return the product to the charger immediately

after use so that it will be ready and fully charged for the next use. Ensure that the product is fully engaged with the power supply plug.

DRY PICK-UP (Catalog Number CHV9610)

• For everyday spills of dry material.

WET AND DRY PICK-UP (Catalog Number CWV9610, CWV9610D)

• For everyday spills of dry material, use your appliance without the squeegee accessory.

CAUTION: Your product is designed for light spills only.

• This vacuum can also be used to pick up everyday liquid spills. Use the squeegee accessory on non-absorbent, hard surfaces. On absorbent surfaces, such as carpet, your appliance will pick up wet spills better without the accessory.

• For best performance on hard surface wet pickups, insert squeegee into the bowl

nozzle opening.

• For best results when using this accessory, hold the appliance at an angle of 45° and pull it slowly towards you.

• Do not fill the bowl beyond the end of the intake chute. If there is any liquid in the bowl,

do not turn the unit upside down, sideways, point the nozzle upward, or shake the vac excessively.

• After picking up liquid substances clean the vac and filter immediately. Mold and

mildew may form if the unit is not properly cleaned after wet pickups.

• If charging in a vertical position, be sure to empty all liquid contents to avoid damage

to your appliance.

Cleaning the product (gures H, I, J and K)

WARNING: Never use the vac

without its filter.

NOTE: The filter is re-usable, do not confuse it with a disposable dust bag, and do not throw it away when the product is emptied. We recommend that you replace the filter every 6-9 months depending on frequency of use.

• Figure H - Remove the dust bowl by pressing the bowl release button and pulling the bowl straight off.

• To replace the dust bowl, place it back onto the handle until it “clicks” firmly into position.

• Figure I - While holding the dust bowl over a wastebasket or sink, pull out the filter to empty the contents of the bowl.

• Figure J - Empty the dust from the bowl and wash if necessary.

• Figure K - The dust bowl can also be washed in warm soapy water. Wash the filter regularly using warm, soapy water and ensure that it is completely dry before using it again. The cleaner the filter is, the better the product will perform.

• Ensure that the dust bowl and filter is dry before

re-attaching.

• It is very important that the filter is correctly in

position before use.

IMPORTANT: Maximum dust collection will only be obtained with a clean filter and an empty dust bowl. If dust begins to fall back out of the product after it is switched off, this indicates that the bowl is full and requires emptying.

Replacing the lters

The filters should be replaced every 6 to 9 months and whenever worn or damaged. Replacement filters are available from your Black & Decker dealer. Visit www.blackanddecker.com to locate dealers.

• Remove the old filters as described above.

• Fit the new filters as described above.

Maintenance

Bowls and filters can be washed thoroughly; however, use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the main part of the vacuum.

IMPORTANT: To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance and

adjustment (other than those listed in this manual) should be performed by authorized

service centers or other qualified service personnel, always using identical replacement parts.

If the product does not work, check the following:

• The charge indicator light is on when unit is connected to charger.

• The charger was correctly plugged in for recharge. (It feels slightly warm to the touch.)

• The charger cord is not damaged and is correctly attached.

The RBRC™ Seal

The RBRC™ (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation) Seal on the nickel-cadmium battery (or battery pack) indicates that the costs to recycle the battery (or battery pack) at the end of its useful life have already been paid

by Black & Decker. In some areas, it is illegal to place spent nickel-cadmium batteries in the trash or municipal solid waste stream and the RBRC program provides an environmentally conscious alternative.

RBRC in cooperation with Black & Decker and other battery users, has established programs in the United States and Canada to facilitate the collection of spent nickelcadmium batteries. Help protect our environment and conserve natural resources by returning the spent nickel-cadmium battery to an authorized Black & Decker service center or to your local retailer for recycling. You may also contact your local recycling center for information on where to drop off the spent battery, or call 1-800-8-BATTERY.
