location where you intend to drill the holes for the wall bracket .
Drilling into a current-carrying electric cable can be potentially fatal!
1) Select a suitable installation location for the wall bracket :
It must be possible to remove the handheld vacuum cleaner easily and there
must be a mains power socket nearby. In addition, there should be no power
or water lines in the wall.
2) Drill two holes below each other at a distance of approx. 110 mm from each
other. The drill holes must be suitable for 5 mm wall plugs.
3) Push in the wall plugs and screw in the screws so that the heads protrude a
few millimetres.
4) Hang the wall bracket with the drill holes over the two screws and
ensure that the screws slide into the slots. The wall bracket should lie flush
against the wall. You can adjust the distance to the wall and compensate for
any unevenness in the wall by screwing in or unscrewing the screws.
5) Ensure that the power cable is not trapped and that it lies properly in the
cut-out.
6) Push the two accessories holders into the respective catches on the left
and right of the wall bracket . You can place the nozzles in the accessories
holders .
