Pull the **Posture Switch Ring** again to release the machine, lay the machine flat slowly and pull the **Posture Switch** **Ring** anytime again and the hatch will lock in place when you lay it slowly down, this will then lock the machine into the **Storing Position** where you can stand it up for storage.

To charge the machine, locate the power plug on the back of the machine, behind the solution tank.
There is a small latch where you can open and see where the plug needs to connect to.
To remove the charging cable, squeeze the clip and pul out the cable.
To turn on the machine, press this power button until the logo appears on the screen.
Once the machine is on, press both of the green tabs down together until you see the **Disk Brushes** moving on the screen.
Press the tabs down together again and keep moving the machine until the the count down is over to stop the machine.
**Do Not Lift The Tabs Up.
**
### **Recovery Tank Cleaning**
First, step on the pedal and lift the **Recovery Tank** up using the handle.
**Do NOT Let Any Water Into This Motor, This Will Damage The Machine If Any Water Gets Into The Motor.
**

To drain the dirty water, remove the cap that is highlighted in the image and pour from there.
Once done, just reattach it back to the base of the machine and once secured, you will not be able to lift it back up.
