vacuum cleaner for a short time.
Charging it near a radio might cause sound interference when the radio is in operation. When
charging the vacuum cleaner, plug the AC adapter into an outlet that is at least 2 meters away
from any radio equipment.
To prolong battery life
Be sure to charge the vacuum cleaner after each use, even if you only used the vacuum cleaner for a short
period of time.
If the vacuum cleaner is not to be used for more than a month, please fully charge the battery before storing
it. Charging it once a year if the vacuum cleaner is not in use will prolong the battery life. (Storing a depleted
battery will deteriorate the battery performance and battery life.)
If the vacuum cleaner stops in the middle of operation because the battery has run out, you might still be able
to use the vacuum cleaner for a short while by pressing the control buttons. However, this type of action is
not recommended.
Performing this type of action will shorten the battery life.
Note
Unplug the AC adapter.
Disconnect the cord and connector, and then detach the wall bracket
and stand pipe.

Risk of damage to the floor
If dust and debris gets tangled in the wheels, the wheels cannot rotate, which might cause
wear and tear and floor damage.
After extended use, the brushes, wheels, and rotary brush might wear down. Using the power
head while they are worn out might damage the floor. You cannot replace the brushes or
wheels by yourself. Please contact a Hitachi authorized service agent to have the brushes,
wheels, and rotary brush replaced as a set.

Troubleshooting
Before requesting for repair
The vacuum cleaner does not operate, or stops while the vacuum cleaner is running. The suction power is weak. The rotary brush does not rotate.
Press the button of the vacuum cleaner to stop operation.
Empty the dust
case or maintain
the dust case or
filters.
(P.EN-21~EN-26,
EN-28~EN-29)
Remove the
object that is
blocking the
inlet.
Wait for the
vacuum cleaner
to cool down,
which may take
a moment.
Remove the
foreign substance
from the rotary
brush
(P.EN-30~EN-32
EN-34)
Do not firmly
press the power
head against the
floor or carpet.
The safeguard might be operating. Release the safeguard with the following instructions.
If the vacuum cleaner continues to operate further, it stops automatically.
The safeguard is released after 5 to 60 minutes, and you can use
the cleaner normally.
Safeguard and cause Instructions
Suction power of the vacuum cleaner becomes weak
or stops while the vacuum cleaner is running.
The rotary brush of the power head, mini
power brush or wet power brush stops.
Check the following points again
To prevent the vacuum motor or
the battery from overheating, the
vacuum cleaner might
sometimes automatically enter
safe mode, in which the vacuum
cleaner runs with less electricity
and reduced suction power.
