- When you use the vacuum cleaner to vacuum ashes, ne 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 dustbag, even if it is not full yet (see chapter

‘Maintenance’).

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

damage the motor and shorten the life of the appliance.

- Only use Philips s-bag ` synthetic dustbags.

- 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.);
