If the mains cord is damaged, you must have it replaced by Philips, a service centre authorised by 
Philips or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, 
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given 
supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their 
safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
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. 
Caution
When you use the vacuum cleaner to vacuum ashes, fine sand, lime, cement dust and similar 
substances, the pores of the dustbag become clogged. As a result, the dustbag-full indicator will 
indicate that the dustbag is full. Replace the disposable dustbag and empty the reusable dustbag, 
even if it is not full yet (see chapter ‘Replacing/emptying the dustbag’).
Never use the appliance without the motor protection filter. This could damage the motor and 
shorten the life of the appliance.
Only use Philips s-bag ` synthetic dustbags or the reusable dustbag provided (some countries 
only). 
The translucent display panel is made of recyclable polycarbonate (>PC<).
Electromagnetic fields (EMF)
This Philips appliance complies with all standards regarding electromagnetic fields (EMF). If handled 
properly and according to the instructions in this user manual, the appliance is safe to use based on 
scientific evidence available today.
