GREAT BRITISH DESIGN, INNOVATION
AND EXCELLENCE SINCE 1912
Since the turn of the 20th century, Tower has been
designing, developing and manufacturing housewares and
small appliances used by millions of households throughout
the UK and beyond. During the 1960s, the rise in popularity
of pressure cooking saw Tower become the UK’s largest
producer of pressure cookers, right through into the late
1980s. In recent years the Tower brand has been reborn with
an exciting and varied range of housewares and electrical
appliances that have quickly reinstated the brand’s richly
deserved status as a household name.

4 - Before First Use
Installing the Charging Base:
1. To install the charging base, begin by inserting the pin end of the DC adaptor
into the slot of the charging base, as shown in Fig. 1.
2. Once this pin has been inserted, place the base against a wall and use two
screws to x it into place, as shown in Fig. 2.
3. Your charging base is now ready for use.
Charging the Unit:
1. The vacuum will not be charged when unpacked and so must be charged
before rst use. Before charging, ensure that the appliance is switched off.
2. While in use, the unit’s battery level is represented by three LED indicators
located on the main body. These indicators will light up when the vacuum is
charged, and will progressively go out one by one as the vacuum loses charge.
When the battery power is fully drained, the last of these indicators will ash
for about 30 seconds to a minute, and the unit will stop working. When this
occurs, it is recommended that you charge your vacuum cleaner immediately.
3. To charge the vacuum cleaner, place the unit on the charging base, ensuring it
is rmly secured into place. Then, connect the charger mains plug to a suitable
mains outlet, as shown in Fig. 3. A blue LED indicator will light up and ash to
indicate the unit is charging.
4. The vacuum is fully charged when all three of the LED indicators on the main
body of the unit are illuminated. This usually takes between 4 and 5 hours.
5. Once the vacuum is fully charged, release it from the base by pushing the
release button on the base and pulling the unit loose, as shown in Fig. 4.

upholstery brush and crevice tool, ideal for vacuuming corners, narrow gaps,
upholstery and delicate surfaces.
2. To attach this accessory to the vacuum cleaner, push it into the main body of
the unit until it clicks into place.
3. To remove this accessory, push the accessory release button, located at the
bottom of the vacuum pole, and pull the accessory rmly away from it until it

not pick up or the
suction power is
weak.
