2.1 Unpacking
Unpack the appliance and all accessory parts
and check that the contents are complete.
ATTENTION:
Always transport/send the appliance in its
original packaging so that it does not
become damaged. Keep the packing mate-
rial for this purpose.
Dispose of any packing material that is no
longer required in accordance with the pro-
visions applicable in your country.
NOTE:
If you should notice damage due to trans-
port, then contact your dealer immediately.
2.2 Assembly
1. Insert the battery powered hand-held vac-
uum cleaner (Fig. 3/1) into the charging
station (Fig. 3/2).
2. Stow the accessories (Fig. 1/4) for stor-
age in the accessories containers (Fig. 1/
2) as shown.
2.3 Charge the battery
ATTENTION:
Only use the charger supplied with the
appliance for charging the battery. If this
condition is disregarded, the appliance may
incur damage or the batteries may be
severely damaged.
The battery must be charged before being
able to work with the appliance. To do this:
1. First connect the power unit to the charg-
ing station (Fig. 3/3).
2. Then plug the power unit into the socket
(Fig. 3/4).
The charging light (Fig. 1/1) is illuminated
red.
3. Now leave the battery to charge for 14-16
hours.
ATTENTION:
Avoid longer charging times. These shorten
the operating life of the battery.
4. After charging, pull the power unit out of
the socket first and then out of the charg-
ing station.
NOTE:
Only recharge the battery again if it is com-
pletely dead. This will increase its operating
life.
2.4 Using other nozzles (accesso-
ries)
The battery powered hand-held vacuum
cleaner can be used for many different pur-
poses when combined with the nozzles in-
cluded in the scope of delivery and both insert
tubes (Fig. 3/2).
WARNING:
Switch the battery powered hand-held vac-
uum cleaner off before assembling or
removing the accessories.
You can simply push the accessory into
the suction nozzle (Fig. 3/1) and combine as
required (Fig. 3).
Use the accessories as follows:
- Furniture brush (Fig. 3/3)
Use this to vacuum dust off objects that
have sensitive surfaces (e.g. cup-
boards, doors).
- Floor nozzle (Fig. 3/4)
This is suitable for vacuuming carpets
and hard floors. Combined with the two
insert tubes, you can use the Handy
Duo like a cylinder vacuum cleaner.
- Crevice nozzle (Fig. 3/5)
Use this to vacuum dust from hard to
reach places.
