- If batteries are damaged or leaking, avoid contact with the skin or eyes. If this occurs, immediately
rinse well with water and seek medical care.
- This product contains a rechargeable battery. The battery may only be replaced by a qualified
service engineer.
- Take the appliance to an authorized Philips service center when you can no longer recharge it or
when it runs out of power quickly.
Caution
- During charging, the adapter becomes warm to the touch. This is normal.
- Do not plug in, unplug or operate the appliance with wet hands.
- Do not remove the adapter from the wall socket by pulling at the cord (Fig. 1). When you do not use
the charging station for charging, always unplug the appliance by first detaching the magnetic
charging disc from the underside of the appliance (Fig. 2).
- Always switch off the appliance after use and before you charge it.
- Never block the exhaust air openings at the back of the appliance during vacuuming.
- Do not clean the dust container and the dust container lid in the dishwasher. They are not
dishwasher-proof.
- Do not clean the white material of the filter holder with a normal vacuum cleaner or a brush to
avoid damage to the material.
- Always use the vacuum cleaner with the filter assembled.
- When you clean the washable sponge filter with water, make sure it is completely dry before you
put it back into the filter holder and dust container. Do not dry the sponge filter in direct sunlight,
on the radiator or in the tumble dryer. Do not clean the filter holder with water. This part is not
washable.
- Replace the filter if it can no longer be cleaned properly or if it is damaged (see 'Ordering
accessories').
- Never use any accessories or parts from other manufacturers or that Philips does not specifically
recommend. If you use such accessories or parts, your warranty becomes invalid.
- Make sure that the appliance is installed with the charging station attached to the wall according to
the instructions in the user manual.
- Be careful when you drill holes in the wall to attach the charging station, to avoid the risk of electric
shock.
- As this appliance uses water to clean, the floor may remain wet and slippery for a while (Fig. 3).
- Do not lift or tilt the nozzle when the water tank is assembled and full, as water may spray out of
the water tank.
- To prevent damage, never put wax, oil, floor maintenance products or liquid floor cleaners that are
not water-dilutable in the water tank.
- To prevent damage, never put ethereal oils or similar substances in the water tank or let the
appliance pick them up.
- Only use liquid floor cleaners that are transparent. Do not use milky or non-transparent floor
cleaners.
- Do not mix different types of liquid floor cleaner. When you have used one liquid floor cleaner, first
empty and rinse the water tank before you add another liquid floor cleaner to the water in the
water tank.
- Never exceed the maximum quantities mentioned on the bottle when you use a liquid floor
cleaner. Do not add more than a few drops to the water in the water tank, as this tank has a
capacity of 200 ml.
