It runs on two 18V Li-ion batteries and features separate brushless motors for vacuuming and brush rotation, allowing for independent control. Its main body can tilt up to 90 degrees, enabling access to tight spaces under furniture.
The vacuum cleaner has an LED joblight fitted to aid visibility in low-lit areas. The dust disposal warning light indicates when the dust collection bag needs emptying, and the brush roll error lamp alerts the user to any issues with the brush roll. A battery warning lamp indicates the battery charge status. The carrying handle allows for easy mobility. The HEPA filter system minimizes dust and small particles for cleaner air. This vacuum also features 3 speed settings, front bumper protectors, 90-degree tilting capacity, two different BL motors, an expandable hose, and automatic brush roll stop when not in use to prevent damage. The model features separate BL motors, one for vacuuming dust and the other for rotating brush. These motors are separately controlled according to the selected suction mode. Thanks to the expandable hose and removable aluminium pipe with an integrated handle, you can clean in corners or confined spaces with the machine standing upright. The brush roll automatically stops to avoid damaging the carpet.
