Installing the Charging
Station
CAUTION
• Do not allow children or pets to hang onto the
charging station. They could be injured or cause
damage to the appliance.
• Take care not to drop the product parts while
unpacking them to avoid appliance damage or
personal injury.
NOTE
• The cost of a service call to install or reinstall the

Installation
Follow the steps below to install the charging
station on a hard and level floor.
CAUTION
• Do not install on carpeted floors or rugs. The
product may fall, causing injury or damage.
1 Place the charging station on a flat, hard
surface with the long side facing forward.
• Install the charging station with at least
2" (5cm) of clearance in the rear. If you plan
to store the mop nozzle on the station,
allow more than 2" (5 cm).
•Keep an 8" (20cm) radius in the front clear
of obstacles in order to open the doors of
the station.
2 Using the anti-tip kit, fix the product firmly to
the wall.
3 Plug the power plug into the outlet.
• When the power plug is connected
correctly, the status display flashes, and the
product setting is initialized. Once
initialization is completed, the status display
turns off.
Anti-tip Kit Installation
The anti-tip kit is designed to secure the product to
the wall in order to prevent it from tipping over
and causing personal injury or damage to itself or
the floor.
WARNING
• Carefully read and follow the guidelines in order
to prevent property damage or personal injury.
• Do not lean against the product or place a heavy
object on top of it.
• Manage and supervise children or pets to
prevent them from knocking into or climbing on
the product.
• If you prefer not to install this kit immediately,
ensure that you keep it out of the reach of
children.
• Do not use this kit for purposes other than the
installation of the charging station.
• Wear gloves and protective clothing in order to
prevent personal injury.
• When drilling a hole in concrete, take caution
and wear protective goggles.
• Before drilling into a wall, make sure that there
are no vents, gas or water pipes, or electrical
cables behind the wall.
en-us_main.book.book Page 11 Wednesday, July 12, 2023 4:56 PM

12 INSTALLATION
1 Before moving the product to its final
position, mark the location on the wall where
you will attach the anti-tip cord. If you are not
drilling into a wall stud, you will need to use
the wall mounting anchor.
• Install the wall mounting anchor and the
mounting band directly behind the product.
2 Attach one of the mounting bands to the loop
at one end of the cord.
3 If drilling into drywall, use a 4 mm bit to drill a
hole 1 3/4" (44.5 mm) deep at the marked
location and insert the wall mounting anchor
first. Then screw the mounting band into the
anchor with the wall mounting screw. When
screwing into a wall stud or concrete, use the
wall mounting screw without the anchor.
4 Thread the other end of the cord through the
slide as shown to form a loop. Attach the
second mounting band to this loop.
5 Use the product mounting screw to attach the
mounting band to the back of the product.
6 Place the product in its final location and use
the slider to adjust the length of the cord until
there is about 1 inch of play in the cord.
CAUTION
• Do not tighten the wall mounting screw
excessively. Doing so may cause the wall
mounting to come loose and the product to fall,
resulting in personal injury or product damage.
• For best results, attach the mounting band to a

cleaner, dust bin cover opening, product
operating unit, and suction.
• The vacuum cleaner mounting unit of the
charging station is cleaned with a stronger
suction force just before the dust emptying
operation is over. The sound may increase, but
this is normal and not a fault.
• During the dust emptying operation, the product
is not charged for safety reasons.
• For best results in areas with extra hair or pet
dander, empty the vacuum dust bin more often
during cleaning.
• Replace the dust bag every month to maintain
the dust emptying performance. The
replacement cycle may vary depending on the
environment, and may be especially short in
conditions with a lot of dust or pet hair.
• The dust bin may not be emptied completely
under certain conditions (very full, contains long
hairs, etc.). If this happens, press Start/Stop to
repeat the emptying process.
• Clean the dust bin's inside, the easy dust
emptying lever and the large dust separator to
remove the remaining dust. For more
information, see the vacuum cleaner owner's
manual.
