- Never use any accessories or parts from other manufacturers or that
Philips does not specifically recommend. If you use such accessories or
parts, your guarantee becomes invalid.
- Make sure that the temperature in the room where the appliance is
stored or charged is between 5°C and 40°C.
- Make sure that the appliance is installed with the wall fixture mounted to
the wall according to the instructions in the user manual.
- Be careful when you drill holes in the wall to attach the wall fixture, to
avoid the risk of electric shock.
- If you use the appliance to vacuum fine sand, lime, cement dust and
similar substances, the pores of the filter will become blocked. Clean the
filter regularly.
- As this appliance uses water to clean, the floor may remain wet and
slippery for a while (Fig. 3).
- To prevent damage, never put wax, oil, floor maintenance products or
liquid floor cleaners that are not water-dilutable in the water tank.
- 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.
- To prevent damage, do not use liquid floor cleaners that are not
transparent or even milky.
- 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 200ml.
- Do not clean the metal wetting strip with a sharp object, as this may
damage the strip. Only clean the wetting strip by rinsing it under the tap.
Replace the wetting strip when you can no longer clean it.
- Replace the wetting strip only with an original strip. For ordering a new
strip, see chapter 'Ordering accessories'.
- Clean the water tank according to the instructions. The water tank is not
dishwasher-proof.
- Do not use aggressive cleaning agent or tools to clean the Aqua Boost
pedal.

Electromagnetic fields (EMF)

This Philips appliance complies with all applicable standards and
regulations regarding exposure to electromagnetic fields.

Using the appliance

Usage restrictions

- Only use the water tank on hard floors with a water-resistant top coat
(such as linoleum, enameled tiles and varnished parquet) and stone
floors (such as marble). If your floor has not been treated to make it
water-resistant, check with the manufacturer if you can use water to
clean it. Do not use the water tank on hard floors of which the water-
resistant top coat is damaged.
- Only use the water tank on linoleum floors that are properly affixed to
prevent linoleum from being drawn into the mopping nozzle.
- Do not use the water tank to clean carpets.
- Do not move the appliance with water tank assembled sideways, as this
leaves water traces. Only move forwards and backwards.
Note: Runtime duration depends on power level used during cleaning.

Mopping pad and wetting strip

The appliance comes with one wetting strip and two microfiber mopping
pads. With the water tank, wetting strip and microfiber mopping pad
attached to the standard floor nozzle, you can clean hard floors.

Using liquid floor cleaner in the water tank

If you want to add a liquid floor cleaner to the water in the water tank, make
sure that you use a low-foaming or non-foaming liquid floor cleaner that
can be diluted in water. As the water tank has a capacity of 200ml, you only
have to add a few drops of liquid floor cleaner to the water.

Cleaning the water tank

To clean the water tank, mix one part vinegar with three parts water. Pour
this mixture into the water tank and close the cap. Shake the water tank and
put the water tank on a water-resistant surface. Leave the water-vinegar
mixture in the water tank overnight. Then empty the water tank, rinse it
thoroughly with fresh water, and use it normally again.
Caution: Water will leak from the water tank during cleaning, with the
wetting strip mounted and without the wetting strip.
To empty the water tank, hold the water tank over a sink, remove the cap
and tilt the water tank to the side of the filling hole. Then turn the water tank
over to let the water pour into the sink. To remove the remaining water from
the water tank, turn the water tank on its long side with the filling hole
pointing towards the sink. Then tilt the water tank forwards to let the
remaining water flow out of the water tank.
Note: Always store the water tank with the cap removed from the filling
hole.
