Using the Vacuum Holder and Charging the Battery
The included vacuum holder can be mounted on a wall near a power outlet to provide a convenient storage
and charging point for the vacuum cleaner. In order to do so, please follow the steps below:
1. Locate a suitable indoor table top, or wall location near an electrical power outlet. Be sure that it is out
of the reach of children.
2. Be sure that there are no hidden electrical wires or water pipes in the selected wall mounting area.
3. Do not mount the charging cradle in direct sunlight or close to a heating source. Always be sure to keep the
hand vacuum cleaner and its holder away from heating elements, ovens or other heated appliances and
surfaces.
4. Always be sure that the exhaust air vents are open. Blockage can result in overheating and damage to the
appliance.
5. Insert one end of the wall charger in through the bottom of the vacuum holder, and twist it so that it locks in
place, so that when you place your vacuum on the holder, the charger goes into the battery charging socket on
the backside of the vacuum cleaner.
6. Plug the other end of the wall charger to a power outlet.
7. Make sure the vacuum is powered off and place it on the vacuum holder. The charging LED light will turn red
to indicate charging.
8. When not in use, the vacuum cleaner should be stored in the charging cradle. This will ensure that the
cleaner remains fully charged up and always ready for action.
9. This product contains a rechargeable sealed NI-CD battery. Do not throw the battery into a fire and do not
expose the vacuum to high temperatures. There is a risk of explosion!
Notes:
Your handheld vacuum cleaner is powered by a rechargeable sealed NI-CD battery. When using your
vacuum, place it back in the vacuum holder in order to recharge the battery. The vacuum cleaner will run for
maximum operational time only if it has been fully charged.
It is recommended that the battery be fully drained, then fully recharged every 30~40 days. Only after
charging and discharging the battery 2-3 times will you be able to get maximum performance.

The charging LED light will stay on when the vacuum is placed securely in the holder to indicate that the
battery is charging.
If the suction power of the vacuum becomes weak or ineffective; you may need to recharge the battery.

vacuum, pull it in the opposite direction to power it off.
-Attach the Extension Tube: You can attach the included extension tube by inserting it into the nozzle of your

the filter over a dustbin or wash the filter with lightly warm water.
