Triple functionality
Your vacuum cleaner can easily be configured into three different cleaning modes:
• Upright vacuum cleaner for floors and carpets.
• Handheld vacuum cleaner (12) which can be carried with you whilst cleaning hard to reach places.
• Extended reach vacuum cleaner (12) for cleaning high coving etc.
Set up and charging
Charge the product fully before first use.
1 Align the grooves on the sides of the battery (13) with the ridges inside the battery compartment
located on the underside of the handheld vacuum cleaner
(12). Slide the battery in until it clicks into
place, ensuring the electrical connectors marry together.
The battery will not need to be removed again unless:
a) the product is undergoing maintenance or cleaning;
b) the product reaches the end of its useful life.
2 Insert the mains adaptor (24) into the charging inlet (3) on the back of the handheld vacuum cleaner
handle
(2). Connect the mains adaptor into the mains supply.
3 The charging / power indicator lights (4) will illuminate and flash. There are three charging lights
that will illuminate in turn as the product charges. When charging is complete, the lights will
extinguish. A full charge may take 4 hours.
When fully charged, disconnect the mains adaptor from the charging inlet and unplug the mains
adaptor from the mains supply.
