When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed,
including the following: PLEASE READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE
USING THE UNIT.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or injury:

• Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children. Do not

allow to be used as a toy.

• To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put unit or charging base in water or other

liquid.

• Do not use wet/dry hand vacs to pick up toxic substances, flammable or combustible

liquids such as gasoline or use in areas where they may be present.

• Do not operate in the presence of explosives and/or flammable fumes or liquids.
• Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or charger or after the appliance

malfunctions, is left outdoors, dropped into water or is damaged in any manner. Return the
appliance to any authorized service facility.

• Do not use Dustbuster

®

wet/dry hand vac outdoors.

• Do not abuse the cord. Never carry the charger or base by the cord or yank to disconnect

from an outlet; instead grasp the charger and pull to disconnect. Keep cord away from
heated surfaces. Do not pull cord around sharp edges or corners.

• Do not allow the cord to hang over the edge of a table or counter or touch hot surfaces. The unit

should be placed or mounted away from sinks and hot surfaces.

• Do not use an extension cord. Plug the charger directly into an electrical outlet.
• Use the charger only in a standard electrical outlet (120V/60Hz).
• Do not attempt to use the charger with any other product; do not attempt to charge this

product with any other charger. Use only the charger supplied by the manufacturer to
recharge.

• Keep hair, loose clothing, and all parts of body away from openings and moving parts.
• Do not insert accessories when unit is running.
• Do not handle plug or appliance with wet hands.
• Do not put any object into unit openings. Do not use with any openings blocked; keep free

of dust, lint, hair, and anything that may reduce air flow.

• Do not vacuum burning or smoking materials, such as lit cigarette butts, matches or hot

ashes.

• Do not use on or near hot surfaces.
• Use extra caution when cleaning on stairs.
• This appliance is intended for household use only and not for commercial or industrial use.
• Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufacturer’s recommended

attachments.

• Unplug the charger from outlet before any routine cleaning or maintenance.
• This product includes rechargeable nickel cadmium batteries. Do not incinerate batteries

as they will explode at high temperatures.

• Leaks from battery cells can occur under extreme conditions. If the liquid, which is a

20-35% solution of potassium hydroxide, gets on the skin (1) wash quickly with soap and
water or (2) neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or vinegar. If the liquid gets into
the eyes, flush them immediately with clean water for a minimum of 10 minutes. Seek
medical attention.

• The charger supplied with this product is intended to be plugged in such that it is correctly

orientated in a vertical or floor mount position.

WARNING: Do not look into the air vents when the unit is switched on, as sometimes

there is a possibility of small debris being discharged from the air vents, especially after
cleaning / replacement of the filters as debris inside the unit can be disturbed.

WARNING: Some household dust contains chemicals known to the State of California

to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm such as asbestos and lead in
lead based paint.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (FIG. B)

The charging bracket can be mounted to most walls or left unattached on a flat surface. Fix
the wall mount within reach of an electrical outlet. Mount securely into framing studs or
wallboard using the hardware provided. Next plug power supply plug into nearby 120 volt
electrical outlet. Ensure cord is not too tight so as to pull unit off wall mount.

WARNING: Do not mount the charging bracket directly over the 120 volt electrical outlet.

Excess water from the bowl could drip onto the outlet and create a hazard.

RECHARGING (FIG. C)

From new, the rechargable cells of the product need a minimum charge time of 16 hours to
ensure full power.
The switch must be in the off (“O”) position, the product will not charge if it is in any other
position.
Make sure that the product is fully mounted on the charging bracket. There is an arrow
on the charging base that must line up with the split of the dust bowl and the handle.
While charging, the product may get warm, this is perfectly normal and safe. It can remain on
charge indefinitely without damage or danger. It is not possible to “overcharge” the battery
cells with the charger provided.

OPERATION (FIG. D)

To start, slide the On/Off switch forward (i.e. “O”= Off, “I” = On). To stop, slide the switch
back.
For best performance on hard surface wet pickups, insert Squeegee into the Bowl Nozzle
Opening.
Do not fill the bowl beyond the end of the intake chute. If there is any liquid in the bowl, do
not turn the unit upside down, sideways, point the nozzle upward, or shake the vac
excessively.
After picking up liquid substances clean the vac and filter immediately. Mold and mildew
may form if the unit is not properly cleaned after wet pickups.
Always return the product to the power supply immediately after use so that it will be ready
and fully charged for the next use. Ensure that the product is fully engaged with the power
supply plug.

CLEANING THE PRODUCT (FIGS . E-I)

WARNING: Never use the Dustbuster without its filters.

NOTE: The filters are re-usable, do not confuse them with disposable dust bags, and do not
throw them away when the product is emptied. We recommend that you replace the filters
every 6-9 months depending on frequency of use.

FIG. E

Remove the dust bowl by turning it counterclockwise slightly and pulling it away

from the handle. To replace the bowl, place it back onto the handle and twist it clockwise
until it “clicks” firmly into position.

FIG. F

Empty the dust from the bowl and wash if necessary (see Fig. H).

FIG. G

While holding the bowl over a wastebasket, pull out the foam filter and hard filter to

empty the contents of the bowl.
