2) Electrical safety a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.

Unmodi ed plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock. b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes,

radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.

Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

3) Personal safety a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a

power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the in uence of drugs,

alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the o position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your nger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

NOTE The recharging time may vary according to the ambient temperature and power source

voltage.

4. Disconnect the chargers power cord from the receptacle. 5. Hold the charger rmly and pull out the battery. NOTE Be sure to pull out the battery from the charger after use, and then keep it. Regarding electric discharge in case of new batteries, etc.

As the internal chemical substance of new batteries and batteries that have not been used for an extended period is not activated, the electric discharge might be low when using them the rst and second time. This is a temporary phenomenon, and normal time required for recharging will be restored by recharging the batteries 2 3 times.

How to make the batteries perform longer. (1) Recharge the batteries before they become completely exhausted. When you feel that the power of the tool becomes weaker, stop using the tool and recharge

its battery. If you continue to use the tool and exhaust the electric current, the battery may be damaged and its life will become shorter.

(2) Avoid recharging at high temperatures. A rechargeable battery will be hot immediately after use. If such a battery is recharged

immediately after use, its internal chemical substance will deteriorate, and the battery life will be shortened. Leave the battery and recharge it after it has cooled for a while.

CAUTION If the battery is charged while it is heated because it has been left for a long time in

a location subject to direct sunlight or because the battery has just been used, the pilot lamp of the charger lights for 1 second, does not light for 0.5 seconds (o for 0.5 seconds). In such a case, rst let the battery cool, then start charging.

When the pilot lamp ickers (at 0.2-second intervals), check for and take out any foreign objects in the chargers battery connector. If there are no foreign objects, it is probable that the battery or charger is malfunctioning. Take it to your authorized Service Center.

Since the built-in micro computer takes about 3 seconds to con rm that the battery being charged with charger is taken out, wait for a minimum of 3 seconds before reinserting it to continue charging. If the battery is reinserted within 3 seconds, the battery may not be properly charged.

If the pilot lamp does not blink in red (every second) even though the charger cord is connected to the power, it indicates that the protection circuit of the charger may be activated.

NOTE Regularly idle the motor to clean out dirt and dust. Damage may result if dirt or dust collects in the motor.

4. Cleaning of the outside When the tool is stained, wipe with a soft dry cloth or a cloth moistened with soapy water.

Do not use chloric solvents, gasoline or paint thinner, as they melt plastics. 5. Storage Store the cordless cleaner in a place in which the temperature is less than 50C and out of

reach of children. When storing the appliance in a vertical position, hook the strap to a hanger. NOTE Do not store in a location where children can easily reach or take out the appliance. Do not store in a damp location or in an area exposed to rainfall. Do not store in direct sunlight or in a location where temperatures may suddenly change. Do not store in a location with volatile materials that could ignite or explode. Do not stand the appliance against a wall without using the strap to x it in place. (Fig. 23) Failure to do so may result in damage from a fall.

Fig. 23

Yes No! Standing against the wall

Use the strap for stability

NOTE Storing Lithium-ion Batteries Make sure the batteries have been fully charged before storing them. Prolonged storage (3 months or more) of batteries with a low charge may result in

performance deterioration, signi cantly reducing battery usage time or rendering the batteries incapable of holding a charge.

However, signi cantly reduced battery usage time may be recovered by repeatedly charging and using the batteries two to ve times.

If the battery usage time is extremely short despite repeated charging and use, consider the batteries dead and purchase new batteries.

CAUTION In the operation and maintenance of power tools, the safety regulations and

standards prescribed in each country must be observed.
