4.1 Wall Mounting for charging base
Your Handy is designed to hang vertically on the
wall with handle end pointing downward. When
wall mounting, care should be taken to ensure
that there are no dangerous objects hidden be-
neath the wall surface (e.g. electrical wires, pipe,
etc.) Use a 5 mm drill for drilling holes for the
plastic anchors. Then, insert anchors and screw
the charging base onto the wall.
We recommend that you position your Handy
close to an electrical outlet. Then plug the charg-
ing plug into the socket at the side of the charg-
ing base.

charging stand
If the Nilfi sk Handy is not placed properly in the

Be careful not to trip over the power cable when
