Your Hoover HandiVac handheld vacuum cleaner is a rechargeable battery operated appliance.
Therefore to function properly you will required to charge the batteries fully for effective use. See
‘Charging’ section for more information.
To operate, push the ON/OFF switch forward to turn the hand-held vacuum on. The hand vacuum
will then operate creating suction to pick up dust and dirt (and wet liquids if compatible) as
required.
NOTE: If you find the suction power is weak, or becomes weak, then recharge the hand
vacuum fully.
To turn OFF, pull the ON/OFF switch backwards and the hand vacuum will stop.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that you check the level of dust/ dirt within the dust bin after each use. This
can be done easily as the dust bin is translucent. empty
the
dust bin before you reach maximum
level, and periodically clean the filters to maintain optimum performance of your hand vacuum.
Dry Use Only – HandiVac 7.2 (HH2012)
This model is for use as a dry only vacuum, for cleaning dust, dirt and other household debris.
This vacuum is NOT suitable or designed for vacuuming any wet liquids or damp debris. The
operation of this dry only hand vacuum is similar to a ‘wet & dry’ vacuum.
One physical difference is the filter, which on the HandiVac 7.2 is a single large cloth filter as
pictured on the features page.
Dust bin capacity (DRY):500 mL
Wet & Dry Use – HandiVac 9.6 (HH5011WD) & HandiVac 14.4 (HH5010WD)
These models are for use vacuuming both liquids and dry household dust and dirt. The operation
of this wet & dry hand-held vacuum is the similar to the ‘dry only’ vacuum.
One key physical difference is the unique two piece filter system on the HandiVac 9.6 & 14.4 to
optimise the performance of the vacuum when/if vacuuming liquids. The outer filter is a hard
plastic, and the inner filter is a permanent washable filter.
Care must always be taken when vacuuming any liquids not to exceed the MAX capacity marked
on the dust bin. The use of vacuuming liquids is only for small household spills. After each use
vacuuming liquids the dust bin and filters must be cleaned and dried.
Dust bin capacity (DRY): 500 mL
Dust bin capacity (WET):150 mL
We strongly recommend following our easy Care and Cleaning instructions. This will optimise the
performance of your hand vacuum and prolong its operating life.
Emptying your cleaner
Always switch ‘OFF’ before opening your hand-held vacuum cleaner.
Press the release button down and detach the dust compartment. (Fig.1)
Remove the
from the dust compartment (Dry only – Fig. 2, Wet & Dry – Fig. 3 & 4) and
empty the container (Fig 5). A damp cloth can be used to clean inside the dust compartment.
gently tap out each of the
to dislodge any dust and debris. A soft brush can be used to
gently remove any dirt and dust from the filter/s. The ‘dry only’ filters differ from the ‘wet & dry’
filter system.
To clean the filter/s more thoroughly, you can rinse them with cold or tepid water.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The filter/s must be completely dry before replacing into the dust bin.
Ensure the filter parts are correctly fitted together, before putting back into the dust compartment.
This will make the task easier.
Maximum dust collection will only be obtained with clean
and an empty dust compartment.
Cleaning Your Cleaner
Periodically we recommend wiping out the inside of the dust compartment with a damp cloth.
Filters should be cleaned regularly. For more thorough cleaning of they can be washed in
cold or tepid water, with a very small amount of basic soap.
Filters must be rinsed thoroughly and allowed to dry completely at ambient temperature prior to
replacing back into the vacuum.
