Black & Decker BDH1800S Leaving the Battery Pack in the Charger, Operation, Assembly

LEAVING THE BATTERY PACK IN THE CHARGER

It is OK to leave battery packs on charge for long periods of time. The charger has a maintenance mode which gives the battery pack enough charge to stay “topped off”. If however, the appliance is not expected to be needed for more than 30 days, unplug the charger and store battery pack in a cool, dry location. NOTE: A battery pack will lose its charge when kept off of the charger. If the battery pack has not been kept on maintenance charge, it may need to be recharged before use. A battery pack may also lose its charge if left on a charger that is not plugged into an appropriate AC source.

Installing and Removing the Battery

vac until an audible click is heard (Figure D). Make sure D battery pack is fully seated and fully latched into position.

CLEANING THE PRODUCT
WARNING: Never use this cordless hand vacuum
without its filters.
NOTE: The filter is re-usable, do not confuse them with
disposable dust bags, and do not throw it away when the
product is emptied. We recommend that you replace the filter	H
every 6-9 months.
IMPORTANT: Maximum dust collection will only be
obtained with clean filters and an empty dust bowl. If dust
begins to fall back out of the product after it is switched off,
this indicates that the bowl is full and requires emptying.
• Remove the filter and shake or lightly brush any loose dust
off the filter.
• Empty the dust from the bowl and wash if necessary.
• Wash the filter regularly using warm, soapy water as shown in figure H. Ensure that it
is completely dry before using again.
