3. Connect the power adapter to a certified wall socket.
Charge the appliance for approx. 5 hours before first-
time use.
NOTE:
• The indicator lights show the state of charge of the
rechargeable battery. (25 %, 50 %, 75 %, 100 %)
• The appliance has electronic charge control, which
prevents overcharging.
• Charging is completed when all 4 indicator lights
are lit.
• Once the appliance is disconnected from the power
adapter, the indicator lights go out.
• It is normal for the appliance to heat up during
charging.
4. Disconnect the power adapter from the outlet once the
rechargeable battery has been charged completely.
NOTE:
Even when switched off, the rechargeable battery dis-
charges continuously. If the appliance is out of use for a
longer period of time, charge the rechargeable battery at
least once every 4 to 6 weeks.

Using the Appliance

You can use the appliance as a floor vacuum cleaner or as
a handheld and upright vacuum cleaner (basic appliance).
1. Disconnect the appliance from the power adapter.
2. Turn on the appliance.
CAUTION:
• The suction opening must be free of blockages at all
times. Blockages will cause overheating and damage
to the motor.
• When the floor nozzle is blocked in such a way that
the brush roller can no longer rotate, the appliance will
switch itself off. The 4 indicator lights flash briefly. In
this case, remove the blockage as described in chapter
"Floor nozzle". You may then continue
"Cleaning"
the operation.
NOTE:
• We recommend the higher power level for using the
appliance with the floor nozzle. The LED between the
buttons and ECO is off.
• During operation, depending on the charging capacity
of the rechargeable battery, 1 to 4 indicator are lit.
• We recommend recharging the battery once the indica-
tor lights show a remaining capacity of only 25 %.
• Once the rechargeable battery is almost out of power,
the last indicator light will start flashing for a few sec-
onds. To avoid a deep discharge of the rechargeable
battery, the motor will shut off the appliance accord-
ingly. Recharge the battery.

2. If necessary, remove the suction tube or the nozzle
attachment from the appliance.
3. Hold the appliance with the bottom plate of the dust con-
tainer over a dustbin.

The Filter System

Your appliance features 3 filters. The common dust bag
system has been replaced by a transparent dust container.
The higher flow speed of the container allows for heavy
dirt and smallest floating particles to be separated from the
"sucked-in air".
It is thus not necessary to buy dust bags.
The filters must be cleaned periodically.
CAUTION:
• Never wash the filter in the washing machine.
• Do not use a hair-dryer for drying.
• Only put the appliance back into operation when all
filters are completely dry and correctly assembled.
The Filter Unit
The filter unit is located in the dust container and consists
of:
• HEPA-filter
• Coarse filter
Proceed as follows to clean the filter unit:
1. Empty the dust container as described above.
(Steps 1 – 5)
2. Disassembly of the Filter Unit
