General battery information
The rechargeable battery is supplied not
fully charged.
Charge the battery completely before
using it for the first time. Allow
approximately 4 hours for this.
To activate the battery, it is essential to
place it in the PowerUnit when charging
it for the first time.
Once the battery is fully charged, the
battery charging state indicator on the
PowerUnit switches off to conserve
energy.
The maximum charging capacity is
only achieved once the battery has
been charged and run down five times.
A full charge provides enough power for
14 minutes if the vacuum cleaner is
used at the maximum power level in its
fully assembled state.
However, if you use the PowerUnit solo
and select the minimum power level,
you can vacuum for up to 60 minutes at
a time.
Charging the battery (without wall
mounting) (Fig. 11)
You can store the vacuum cleaner
upright and charge the battery directly.
Before charging the battery for the first
time, you must read the information in
"Installation and connection" –
"General battery information".
 Connect the PowerUnit to the
Electrobrush to provide a secure base
for the vacuum cleaner.
 Swing the vacuum cleaner forward
until the Electrobrush connector
audibly clicks into place.
 Plug the supplied charging cable into
the charging socket on the bottom of
the battery.
 Plug the charger into a power socket.
The charging process will start.
You can read more about this in
"Battery charging state indicator (while
charging)".
