Assembly
Fitting the accessories (fig. A & B)
These models are supplied with the
following accessories:
- a crevice tool (5) for confined spaces
- a wet pick-up accessory (6) for wet
spills
To fit an accessory, proceed as follows:
◆Take the accessories from the
appliance.
◆Insert the appropriate accessory into
the front of the appliance.
You may refit the other accessory by
clicking it into the accessory holder.
To refit both accessories:
◆Slide the crevice tool into the wet
pick-up accessory.
◆Push the accessories down until they
click into place.
Use
◆The appliance can be charged while
placed on a worktop or hung on the
wall using the wall hook provided.
◆Before first use, the battery must be
charged for at least 16 hours.
◆Leave the appliance connected to
the charger whenever it is not in use.
Charging the battery (fig. A)
◆Make sure that the appliance is
switched off. The battery will not be
charged with the on/off switch in the
on position.
◆Insert the charger plug (8) into the
charger connector (9) at the rear of
the appliance.
◆Plug in the charger (7). Switch on at
the mains.
◆Leave the appliance to charge for at
least 16 hours.
Whilst charging, the charger may become
warm. This is normal and does not
indicate a problem. The appliance can be
left connected to the charger indefinitely.
Warning! Do not charge the battery at
ambient temperatures below 4 °C or
above 40 °C.
Switching on and off (fig. D)
◆To switch on, slide the on/off switch
(1) forward.

back.
Wet pick-up (fig. A)
Use the wet pick-up accessory (6) on non-
absorbent surfaces.
For best results when using this accessory,
hold the appliance at an angle of 45°and
pull it slowly towards you. On absorbent
surfaces, such as carpet, your appliance
will pick up wet spills better without the
accessory.

The filters are re-usable and should be
cleaned regularly.
◆Press the release button (2) and

9 months and whenever worn or damaged.
Replacement filters are available from
your Black & Decker dealer (cat. no. VF50).
◆Remove the old filters as described
above.
