Caring for the environment Disposing of the packaging material Disposing of your old appliance The packaging material is used for handling and protects the appliance from transport damage. The packaging material used is selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and can generally be recycled. Before disposing of your old appliance, remove the fine dust filter and dispose of it with your household waste. Recycling the packaging material reduces the use of raw materials.
Caring for the environment Disposing of old batteries In many cases, electrical and electronic appliances contain batteries which must not be disposed of with household waste after use. You are legally obliged to remove any old batteries which are not securely enclosed by the appliance and take them to a suitable collection point (e.g. retailer) where they can be handed in free of charge. Insulate the metal contacts with adhesive tape to prevent short circuits.

It is essential to charge the battery for the first time in the PowerUnit in order to activate maximum power in the battery.
Charging the battery (without wall mounting) Charging the battery (with wall mounting) You can store the vacuum cleaner upright and charge the battery directly. There are 2 ways to store and charge the vacuum cleaner in the supplied wall bracket. You will need a suitable location near a free power socket for mounting the appliance on the wall. Connect the PowerUnit to the Electrobrush to provide a secure base for the vacuum cleaner.
