ENGLISH

Important

Only use Philips s-bag™ double-layer paper
dustbags (type FC8021), or the cotton
dustbag provided (some versions only).
Never use the vacuum cleaner to suck up
water or any other liquid. Never suck up
ashes until they are cold.
When the vacuum cleaner is used to suck up
fine dust, the pores of the dustbag may
become clogged, causing the passage of air
through the dustbag to become obstructed.
As a result, the dustbag-full indicator will
indicate that the dustbag needs to be
replaced, even though the dustbag is not full
at all.
Never use the appliance without the Motor
Protection Filter.This could damage the
motor and shorten the life of the appliance.
