DESCRIPTION
CAUTION: Always be sure that the appliance
is switched o and the battery cartridges are
removed before adjusting or checking function on
the appliance.
Installing or removing battery
cartridge
CAUTION: Always switch o the appliance
before installing or removing battery cartridges.
CAUTION: Hold the cleaner and battery car-
tridges rmly when installing or removing battery
cartridges. Failure to do so may cause them to slip
o your hands, resulting in damage to the cleaner and
battery cartridges or personal injury.
CAUTION: Be careful not to pinch your n-
gers when opening or closing the battery cover.
Failure to do so may cause personal injury.
The cleaner has double battery slots. With two identical
batteries in parallel, you can extend your running time
in one or more uses without having to stop to recharge
batteries. The cleaner also works with a single battery,
so you can choose with either double batteries or single
battery according to your needs.
Fig.2: 1. Left battery slot 2. Right battery slot
With double batteries
Continuous drive with two batteries allows longer run-
time and more ecient cleaning. When the rst battery
is becoming empty, the cleaner automatically switches
a power source, so it continues working with the second
battery.
14 ENGLISH
NOTE: The left battery slot (when facing the front of
the cleaner) has priority over the right battery slot.
The right battery slot will only be identied as a power
source, either when no battery is installed in the
left battery slot or the battery in the left battery slot
becomes empty.
NOTE: You can remove the battery from the left
battery slot and recharge it after the cleaner has
switched its power source from the left battery slot to
the right without ceasing operation. To give priority
back to the left battery slot after installing a recharged
battery, restart the cleaner.
With a single battery
Only one battery is required as a power source in either
the left or right battery slot. The cleaner automatically
determines which battery slot is available according to
operating conditions.
