• Attach the dust container onto the main body of the appliance (fig 19).
Please note : In order to detach the Delta vacuum head, press the ejection button located at the
back of the main body (fig.4) and pull to remove.
2 • Charging the battery
IMPORTANT: Use only the original charger provided with the appliance. Do not charge the
appliance at temperatures lower than 32ºF (0ºC) or higher than 104ºF (40°C). Using a universal
charger will automatically void the guarantee.
Before you use your vacuum cleaner for the first time, you must charge the battery completely
(maximum of 6 hours charging time needed).
While the battery is being charged, the Stop/Start button must be in the Stop position (2.a)
• Place the vacuum cleaner near an electrical outlet.
• Plug the charger in and connect it to the vacuum cleaner using the socket located at the back of
the neck (fig.5).
• The running time indicator signals (4) located at the front will flash in blue, in the form of a wave.
Leave the vacuum cleaner to charge.
While the vacuum cleaner is being charged, the running time indicator signals (4) will turn on and
off one after the other. Once the charge is complete, the light charge signals will remain all on
simultaneously for about 10 seconds, and then turn off.
The charging time will depend on how discharged the battery is.
While the appliance is being charged, all its other functions will remain activated.
Once the charge is complete, unplug the charger from the mains, and then the appliance cord.
Once you unplug the charger, the running time indicator signals (4) will indicate the charge level
of the battery for about 10 seconds, then turn off.
The vacuum cleaner can stay connected to the charger permanently, without any hazard. Keep in
mind, however, that if you decide to keep the charger connected it might become slightly hot. This
is completely normal.
It is advisable to charge the vacuum cleaner immediately after each use in order to always have it
available with a fully charged battery. Thus, you will gain the maximum benefit from its cleaning
and autonomous performance functions. However, in case you plan to be absent for a long period
of time (on vacation, for example), it is advisable to unplug the charger. Otherwise, the autonomous
performance function could be diminished due to automatic power loss.
3 • Turning on the appliance
Unplug the charger cord from the vacuum cleaner. If the charger remains connected to both the
power point and to the appliance, the latter will not function.
Hold the vacuum cleaner by the handle and slide the Stop/Start button downwards, towards one
of the following three speeds (fig.6):
• "Minimum": Used to vacuum thick or delicate rugs and carpets (3.a), as well as fragile surfaces.
Please note: always make sure that the wheels located at the back of the base are clean.
• "Medium": Used for ideal vacuuming on all floor types, and in case of light dirt marks (3.b).
