Your charging stand will come with a separate appliance holder to support your Cordless Handheld Vacuum
whilst it is charging in the stand. This requires some simple assembly.
Before use, we recommend that your vacuum cleaner is fully charged for between 4 to 5 hours. There will be
some charge in the vacuum when you rst purchase it, so it may not take the full amount of time to charge
initially. Note: You should not charge the vacuum cleaner overnight or leave it unattended when charging.
1. Slot the appliance holder into
the charging stand.
2. Screw the appliance holder
rmly in place using the screws
provided.
3. Place your Cordless Handheld
Vacuum into the charging stand
to ensure it is supported securely.
1. Insert the charger plug into the mains.
2. Insert your Cordless Handheld Vacuum into the charging stand. Always make sure that the vacuum is
turned o before putting it into the stand.
3. Once the vacuum has made contact with the charging stand, the blue charge indicator lights will turn on
and will keep ashing.
4. To ensure your vacuum is always ready, it should be left charging when not in use. It is normal for the
adaptor to become warm during charging.
