Important
Read this user manual carefully before you use the appliance and save it for future reference.
Danger
- Never vacuum up water or any other liquid. Never vacuum up ammable substances and do
not vacuum up ashes until they are cold.
Warning
- Check if the voltage indicated on the appliance corresponds to the local mains voltage before
you connect the appliance.
- Do not use the appliance if the plug, the mains cord or the appliance itself is damaged.
- If the mains cord is damaged, you must have it replaced by Philips, a service centre authorised by
Philips or similarly qualied persons in order to avoid a hazard.
- This appliance can be used by children aged 8 or above and by persons with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, if they have been given
instructions in safe use of the appliance and supervision to establish safe use and if they have
been made aware of the hazards involved.
- Do not allow children to play with the appliance.
- Children are only allowed to empty and clean the dust bucket and clean or replace the lters
under supervision.
- Do not point the hose, the tube or any other accessory at the eyes or ears nor put it in your
mouth when it is connected to the vacuum cleaner and the vacuum cleaner is switched on.
- The plug must be removed from the socket-outlet before cleaning or maintaining the appliance.
- Do not clean any parts of the appliance in the dishwasher.
- Make sure the main lter and the foam lter are completely dry before you place them back
into the appliance after cleaning.
Caution
- When you use the appliance to vacuum ashes, ne sand, lime, cement dust and similar
substances, the pores of the foam lter become clogged. If you notice a strong decrease in
suction power, clean the foam lter.
- Only use the original Philips lters, do not attempt to make any of the lters yourself.
- Never use the appliance without any of the lters. This damages the motor and shortens the life
of the appliance.
- Do not vacuum up large objects as this may cause the air passage in the tube or hose to
become obstructed.
- The appliance does not work if the dust bucket or the dust bucket lid is not properly placed.
- For the best performance, clean both the main lter and foam lter at least 4 times per year.
- Do not remove any of the rubber sealings.
- Do not clean any of the rubber sealings with cleaning detergent.
- You should not rinse the dust bucket under the tap. If you accidentally did this anyway, make
sure that you remove and dry the detachable cover before you put the dust bucket back into
the appliance.
- During vacuum cleaning, especially in rooms with low air humidity, your vacuum cleaner builds
up static electricity. As a result you can experience electric shocks when you touch the tube or
other steel parts of your vacuum cleaner. These shocks are not harmful to you and do not
damage the appliance. To reduce this inconvenience we advise you:
1 to discharge the appliance by frequently holding the tube against other metal objects in the
room (for example legs of a table or chair, radiator etc.); (Fig. 2)
2 to raise the air humidity level in the room by placing water in the room. For example, you can
hang containers lled with water from your radiators or place bowls lled with water on or
near your radiators (Fig. 3).
