Charging your machine
Changing your click-in battery
It’s important to fully charge your new machine before using it for the first time, and after every clean. This is because the battery and monitoring system’s algorithm `learns’ over time, and fully charging your machine helps it to more accurately calculate and display remaining run time.
Where you have additional batteries, we recommend that you alternate the batteries to maintain even performance.
