Before you use your vacuum cleaner for the first time, you must charge the battery completely
(for about 12 hours)
While the battery is being charged, the Stop/Start button must be in the Stop position (2.a)
• Place the vacuum cleaner near an electric power point.
• Plug the charger in and connect it to the vacuum cleaner using the socket located at the back of
the neck (fig.5).
• The charge signal (4) located at the front of the main body will light. Leave the vacuum cleaner
to charge. Once the charge cycle is completed (after about 12 hours), the light charge signal will
turn off automatically.
The vacuum cleaner can stay connected to the charger permanently, without any hazard. Keep in
mind, however, that if you decide to keep the charger connected it might become slightly hot. This
would be a completely normal phenomenon.
It is advisable to charge the vacuum cleaner immediately after each use in order to always have it
available with a fully charged battery. Thus, you will gain the maximum benefit from its cleaning
and autonomous performance functions. However, in case you plan to be absent for a long period
of time (on vacation, for example), it is advisable to unplug the charger for, in this case, the
autonomous performance function could be diminished due to automatic power loss.
3 • Turning on the appliance
Unplug the charger cord from the vacuum cleaner. If the charger remains connected to both the
power point and to the appliance, the latter will not function. Hold the vacuum cleaner by the
handle and slide the Stop/Start button downwards, towards one of the two following speeds (fig.6):

marks (2.c).
Vacuum cleaner running times* for each usage speed (with a fully charged battery):
12 Volts

USING THE ELECTRO-BRUSH

The electro-brush is a rotating, motorized brush that guarantees maximum cleaning effectiveness
by allowing the appliance to suck up dirt and clean in depth. The bristles, located all along the
brush, remove threads, hair and fur that might be caught on the surface of rugs and carpets.
Please note: If the vacuum head adheres too closely to the surface you are cleaning, change the
speed to « Min ».
ATTENTION: Do not vacuum large fragments of broken objects, as they could block and damage
the brush. Do not use the electro-brush on long hair carpets, on animal fur, or on fringes.
REMOVING AND CLEANING THE ELECTRO-BRUSH
