1. Check power supply.
The charger for the cordless cleaner is designed for
100 – 240V AC. Do not use it with a DC power source
or engine generator.
2. Check receptacle.
Do not connect the charger to a receptacle if the
power plug is not properly locked in a receptacle or it
comes off from a receptacle.
It is dangerous to use the charger plugged into such
a receptacle.
3. Connect the charger to the cleaner.
Connect the plug of the charger to the outlet on the
cleaner. (Fig. 1)
4. Connect the power plug of the charger to receptacle.
The charging lamp flashes (lights up for 1 sec and
goes out for 2 sec) and then lights up to indicate that
charging has been started.
5. Finish charging.
When charging is finished, the charging lamp goes
out to indicate it.
Disconnect the power plug of the charger from a
receptacle and the plug from the cleaner.
Recharging time: Approx. 3 hours
NOTE:
Recharging time may be longer depending on the
ambient temperature or battery condition.
NOTE:
Do not use the cleaner while charging the battery. It
may damage the cleaner.
If the battery is new or unused for a long time, it may
offer a shorter operating time. In this case, repeat
charging and discharging 2 or 3 times to restore the
normal operating time.
Recharging time may be longer immediately after
use, or when the cleaner is exposed to direct sunlight
for a long time.
The number of battery charges is approx. 500 times.
This varies depending on the circumstances of use.
How to make the battery perform longer
When you feel that the suction power of the cleaner
becomes weaker, stop using the cleaner and recharge
the battery.
Do not recharge the battery which has already been
fully charged.
Do not charge the battery at temperatures outside
the range of 0 - 40°C.
Battery life
Battery life differs significantly by the circumstances
and frequency of use.
If operating time becomes considerably short, it may
indicate that the battery has reached the end of its
service life.
Replace the battery with new one (see "Replacing
the battery" in page 11).
Do not dispose of spent batteries as they can be
recycled. Take them to your dealer or the Hitachi
Authorized Service Center.
DUST BAG

shipment.
Dust stopper is necessary when attaching the dust
bag.

(Fig. 3)
3. Attach the dust bag in the cleaner.
Insert both the dust stopper and dust bag into the
groove in the cleaner until they are firmly seated, and
put the bag into the cleaner. (Fig. 4, 5)
