The Kogan MX15 Pro Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner with Auto-Empty Dock (KAVACSTM15D) is a versatile cleaning appliance designed for efficient home use. This cordless stick vacuum offers the convenience of portability combined with an auto-empty dock for simplified dust disposal.
Function Description:
The MX15 Pro is primarily a cordless stick vacuum cleaner, capable of cleaning various floor types. Its main body houses the motor, battery, and dust cup, which can be attached to an extension tube and an electric floor brush for floor cleaning, or to accessories like the 2-in-1 brush and long crevice tool for targeted cleaning tasks. A key feature of this model is its auto-empty dock, which automatically transfers collected dust from the vacuum's dust cup into a larger dust bag within the base station, reducing the frequency of manual emptying. The vacuum operates with adjustable suction power, including a "Pet mode" specifically designed to handle pet hair and dander more effectively. The control panel on the vacuum provides real-time information such as battery level, roller blockage, over-heat, and dust full indicators, while the base station control panel allows for power control, mode selection (Pet mode, Low speed, High speed), and displays a dust full indicator for the base station's dust bag.
Important Technical Specifications:
While specific numerical specifications like battery voltage, motor power, or dust cup capacity are not provided in the manual, the following can be inferred:
- Power Source: Rechargeable battery, charged via an auto-empty dock.
- Charging: The vacuum charges when placed on the auto-empty dock. The battery indicator flashes when below 10% and is solid when fully charged (100%).
- Dust Collection: Features a dust cup in the vacuum and a larger dust bag in the auto-empty dock.
- Suction Modes: Three adjustable suction levels: Low, Normal, and High, plus an "AUTO" mode that adjusts suction based on dirt levels. A dedicated "Pet mode" is also available for enhanced pet hair cleaning.
- Indicators: Battery level, roller blockage, over-heat, dust full (for vacuum's dust cup), and dust full (for base station's dust bag).
Usage Features:
- Cordless Operation: Provides freedom of movement without being tethered to a power outlet.
- Auto-Empty Dock: Automatically empties the vacuum's dust cup into the base station's dust bag when docked, enhancing convenience and reducing direct contact with dust. The base station runs 3 times at high speed to ensure thorough emptying.
- Adjustable Suction Power: Users can select between Low, Normal, and High suction speeds, or use the "AUTO" mode for intelligent suction adjustment. Low speed is recommended for minimal dirt to reduce noise and extend battery life, while high speed is for heavy dirt and challenging tasks.
- Pet Mode: A specialized cleaning mode on the base station designed to optimize performance for pet owners, effectively capturing pet hair, dander, and other related debris.
- Versatile Attachments: Includes an extension tube, electric floor brush for general floor cleaning, a 2-in-1 brush for various surfaces, and a long crevice tool for hard-to-reach areas like ceilings, bookshelves, and keyboards.
- Battery Management: The manual emphasizes fully charging the battery before first use, after long-term storage, and ensuring it's charged and discharged at least every three months if unused. Only original Kogan.com batteries should be used.
- Safety Features: Includes warnings against using the vacuum for flammable substances, sharp objects, or wet cleaning. It also has fault indicators for roller blockage, air duct blockage, and over-heat protection, which will stop the vacuum's operation to prevent damage.
Maintenance Features:
- Dust Cup Emptying: The vacuum's dust cup can be manually emptied by pressing the release button, or automatically emptied by the auto-empty dock.
- Base Station Dust Bag Emptying: The dust bag in the base station should be emptied every 3-5 days, even if the dust full indicator is not on. The process involves lifting the dust bin lid and then the dust bag handle to remove and empty it.
- Filter Cleaning: The metal filter should be rinsed with clean water. The dust cup and filters (including the HEPA filter) must be thoroughly air-dried for 24 hours before reassembly. Regular cleaning of the HEPA filter screen (recommended weekly) is crucial for optimal performance. The vacuum should never be operated without filters installed.
- Roller Brush Cleaning: The roller brush can be removed by pressing its release button. Any tangled hair or dirt should be removed, and the brush can be rinsed in water, then air-dried for 24 hours before reassembly.
- Storage: The vacuum can be stored on the charging dock, with accessories placed in the designated slots on the dock.
- Troubleshooting Guide: The manual provides solutions for common issues such as the product stopping, short battery life, reduced suction, battery not charging, abnormal noise, roller brush not running, and dust full indicators. This includes advice on cleaning blockages, ensuring correct filter installation, and using the correct charger.
