Philips FC9205 [7/240] English

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

- Do not suck up large objects, as this may cause the air passage in the

tube or hose to become obstructed.

- When you use the vacuum cleaner to vacuum ashes, ne sand, lime,

cement dust and similar substances, the pores of the lter cylinder

become clogged. If you notice a strong decrease in suction power, clean

the lter cylinder.

- Sucking up large objects may cause the air passage in the tube or hose

to become obstructed. If this happens, the blockage indicator turns red

to indicate that there is an obstruction that needs to be removed.

- Never use the appliance without the motor protection lter. This

damages the motor and shortens the life of the appliance.

- Only use the Philips lter cylinder supplied with 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.);

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.

- Noise level: Lc = 76 dB(A).
