3.1 Vacuuming
WARNING:
Check the battery powered hand-held vac-
uum cleaner before each use. A damaged
appliance must never be used. There is a
risk of injury.
1. Remove the batter powered hand-held
vacuum cleaner from the charging station.
2. Switch on the battery powered hand-held
vacuum cleaner using the on/off switch
(Fig. 1/7).
ATTENTION:
Make sure that the air outlet openings
(Fig. 1/3) are free. Otherwise the suction
power will be extremely impaired.
3. If necessary, you can also use the acces-
sories for vacuuming Chapter 2.4,
"Using other nozzles (accessories)".
3.2 Putting away
1. Put the battery powered hand-held vacu-
um cleaner back into the disconnected
changing station after vacuuming.
2. Stow any accessories no longer needed in
the accessory containers.
ATTENTION:
Never position the appliance directly against
heat sources (e.g. heating, oven). Avoid
direct sunlight. Heat can damage the appli-
ance.
If you want to store the appliance for a
longer period of time, empty the dust contain-
er and clean it. Store the appliance in a cool,
dry room.

3.3 Operation in a car
Using the 12 V car connection, you can supply
the battery powered hand-held vacuum clean-
er with power via the 12 V connection in your
car (e. g. cigarette lighter). This means the
battery will not discharge and you can vacuum
for as long as you want.
WARNING:
Never use the battery powered hand-held
vacuum cleaner while driving. Park the car
and turn off the engine before use.
1. Then connect the 12 V car connection ca-
ble to the battery powered hand-held vac-
uum cleaner (Fig. 4/1). Make sure that the
plug can only be plugged in one direction.
2. Then push the 12 V car connection cable
into the suitable plug socket of the car
(e. g. cigarette lighter) (Fig. 4/2).
3. You can now use the battery powered
hand-held vacuum cleaner.
4. After charging, pull the 12 V car connec-
tion cable out of the socket and then out of
the battery powered hand-held vacuum
cleaner.
3.4 Emptying the dust container
Empty the dust container regularly.
ATTENTION:
Switch off the appliance before emptying
the dust container.
1. Hold the dust container (Fig. 5/2) firmly with
one hand. Now press the release button
(Fig. 5/1) to remove the dust container.
2. When emptying the dust container, hold it
low over a dustbin.
3. Remove the filter inserts (Fig. 6/1 and 2)
and tip the dust into the dustbin (Fig. 6/b).
4. Carefully knock the remaining dust loose.
5. Push the filter inserts (Fig. 6/1 and 2) back
into the dust container (Fig. 6/3).
6. Place the dust container (Fig. 5/2) with the
lower lug against the battery powered
hand-held vacuum cleaner and click them
together above. They will click audibly into
