Installation
Wall Mount Installation

Operation
Charging the Battery
Charge the battery when the battery level indicator blinks at its lowest level. Ensure the wall mount's connection part is correctly aligned for charging. The vacuum cleaner cannot be used while charging.
Using the Wall Mount: Ensure the back of the battery is correctly placed onto the vacuum's charging part. The battery level indicator will display while charging and turn off approximately 30 minutes after charging is complete.
Charging with a Desk Charger: Place the battery into the desk charger and push firmly until it clicks. The battery level indicator will display while charging.
Ejecting and Re-inserting the Battery
To eject the battery, press the battery release button at the rear of the handle. To re-insert, push the battery into the handle until it clicks.
Storing Accessories
When not in use, accessories can be stored on the desk charger. Fold the accessory holders, then attach the accessories as shown in the diagrams. Storing the Extension Crevice Tool first may make folding easier.
Operating the Vacuum Cleaner
Power Button: Pressing the power button starts the vacuum cleaner operation in 'MID' mode.
Suction Power Control Button: Use the '+' button to increase suction power and the '-' button to decrease it.
Disassembling Accessories
To disassemble the pipe, press the release button at the rear of the pipe. To disassemble a brush, press the release button at the rear of the brush. It is recommended to operate in MAX mode for over 10 seconds before disassembly to clear any remaining foreign matter.
Accessory Functions:
- Jet Fit Brush: Cleans various floor conditions and carpets.
- Mini Motorized Tool: Used for cleaning bedding.
- Pet Tool: Used for cleaning bedding.
- Combination Tool: Removes dust from curtains, furniture, and sofas.
- Extension Crevice Tool: Removes dust from grooves, chinks, and corners.
Maintenance
Before cleaning, turn off the vacuum cleaner. Clean the dustbin or filter before it becomes completely full to prevent motor overheating.
Emptying and Cleaning the Dustbin
Remove dust from the metal mesh grille filter using the combination tool. Do not pull the rubber attached to the filter. After emptying, clean the dustbin and dry it in the shade. Avoid applying heat, which can cause product malformation.
Washable Micro Filter
To maintain optimal performance, remove dust frequently and wash the filter with water once a month. After washing, dry completely in the shade for more than 24 hours before use. Avoid applying heat.
Fine Dust Filter
Similar to the washable micro filter, remove dust frequently and wash with water monthly. Dry completely in the shade for over 24 hours before use. Avoid applying heat. When assembling, turn the filter until the alignment mark below the lock image is not visible.
Cleaning Tools
For tools like the Mini Motorized Tool, Pet Tool, Extension Crevice Tool, and Jet Fit Brush, remove any tangled foreign matter. For brush rolls, use scissors if necessary. If a cloth or foreign matter is vacuumed up and tangled, the spinning brush may stop to protect the motor. After cleaning, turn the power off and then on again. If a brush does not work after cleaning, repeat the power cycle. Be careful not to catch fingers in the brush folds during cleaning.
