The APOSEN H20-4P is a versatile vacuum cleaner designed for both stick and handheld use, offering efficient cleaning with a focus on user safety and convenience.
Function Description:
The APOSEN H20-4P is primarily a vacuum cleaner, capable of operating as a stick vacuum for floor cleaning and as a handheld vacuum for more targeted tasks. It is designed to remove dust and debris from various surfaces. The device features a main body, an extension tube, and a floor brush for stick vacuum operation, and can be easily converted to a handheld unit by attaching accessories like the two-in-one brush or sofa brush directly to the main body. Power is controlled via a power switch/speed switch, which also allows users to select between two speed modes for different cleaning needs. The vacuum includes a dust cup for collecting debris, which can be emptied using a dedicated dust discharge button. Battery charging is indicated by lights, with different states (flashing, gradually on, all on) signifying the charging progress.

Usage Features:
The APOSEN H20-4P offers flexible usage modes:
- Stick Vacuum Mode: For general floor cleaning, the main body connects to an extension tube, which then connects to the floor brush. This configuration allows for upright vacuuming. The power switch/speed switch activates the device and allows selection between two speed modes (low and high) to suit different cleaning requirements.
- Handheld Vacuum Mode: For more precise cleaning of smaller areas, furniture, or hard-to-reach spots, the main body can be used directly with specialized attachments. The manual illustrates a "two-in-one brush" and a "sofa brush" that can be attached for this purpose.
- Charging: The vacuum charges on a dedicated charging base. Charging progress is indicated by lights: flashing during charging, gradually on as it charges, and all lights on when fully charged.
- Dust Cup Emptying: A dust discharge button is provided for easy emptying of the dust cup into a dustbin.
Maintenance Features:
Regular maintenance is crucial for optimal performance and longevity of the APOSEN H20-4P:
- Dust Cup: The dust cup should be emptied regularly, especially when suction power weakens, as a full dust cup is a common cause of reduced performance.
- HEPA Filter: The HEPA filter needs to be cleaned periodically. A dirty HEPA filter can also lead to weak suction. Users should ensure the dust cup and HEPA filter are installed correctly after cleaning or emptying.
- Charging System: Users should ensure the charger and charging base are correctly connected to the appliance. If the indicator light does not turn on during charging, it may indicate a malfunction, and customer service should be contacted.
- General Care: The manual advises against using water, solvents, or polishes to clean the outside of the appliance and recommends wiping it with a dry cloth. The unit should not be immersed in water or cleaned in a dishwasher.
- Battery Care: The device uses Li-ion batteries. Users are warned not to incinerate batteries or expose them to high temperatures. In case of battery leakage, contact a professional immediately. If liquid gets into the eyes, flush with water and seek medical attention. Wear gloves when handling leaking batteries. Shorting the battery terminals can cause fires. Old batteries should be disposed of safely according to local regulations.
- Cord Care: The charging cord should be handled with care. Do not pull the cord to unplug it, grasp the plug instead. Do not wrap the cord around the charger when storing. The supply cord should not be replaced if damaged; the charger should be discarded and replaced.
- Storage: Store the appliance indoors in a dry place and out of reach of children.
- Safety Checks: Always check the voltage stated on the rating plate corresponds to the local household voltage. Before using, check the charger cord for signs of damage or aging. A damaged or entangled charger cord increases the risk of fire and electric shock.
