General Safety Information

About the batteries

•  Wrong handling of the batteries can cause injury 

and explosion.

•  Only use the power supply unit supplied with the appliance to 

charge the battery pack.

•  Never charge the battery pack with another power supply unit. 

Use the power supply unit supplied solely to charge the battery 
pack of this appliance.

•  Before removing the battery pack, ensure that the power supply 

unit has been removed from the socket.

•  Never take the battery pack apart and never expose it to high 

temperatures. If not handled correctly, liquid could escape from 
the battery pack. Avoid any contact with the fluid.

•  If the battery pack needs replacing, contact the Vax Service Line on 

AU: 1300 361 505 / NZ: 0800 800 900. Do not replace the battery 
pack with other batteries.

•  Only insert the battery pack supplied or an original battery pack 

that you have subsequently ordered into the appliance. Use this 
battery pack for this appliance only.

•  Do not try to open the battery pack. If the batteries inside the 

battery pack have reached the end of their life, then the entire 
battery pack must always be replaced.

About the brush rollers

•  The sweeper has driven brush rollers. In unfavourable 

circumstances they could cause injury. So please observe the 
following in particular:

•  Ensure that the appliance is switched off, the power supply unit 

is not connected and the battery pack has been removed before 
beginning to clean or maintain the appliance.

•  Ensure that parts of your body can never get under the 

brush rollers.

•   Do not brush close to cables, pipes and long fringes. The cable 

insulation could get damaged. Or these objects could get caught 
in the brush rollers and damage the appliance.

This machine is intended for household use only, and NOT 

for commercial or industrial use. 

PLEASE KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FURTHER USE.
DAMAGE TO THE SWEEPER CAUSED AS A DIRECT RESULT 

OF NOT ADHERING TO THE GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
