Compliance with standards

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

Floor cleaning

This appliance is intended for regular cleaning of hard floors. Always follow the cleaning instructions
for your hard floor when you use this appliance.
If you want to add a liquid floor cleaner to the water in the clean water tank, make sure that you
use a low-foaming or non-foaming liquid floor cleaner that can be diluted in water. As the clean
water tank has a capacity of 700ml, you only have to add a few drops of liquid floor cleaner to
the water.

Usage restrictions

- Only use this appliance on hard floors with a water-resistant top coat (such as linoleum,
enamelled 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 this appliance on hard floors of which the water-resistant top coat is
damaged.
- Only use this appliance on linoleum floors that are properly affixed to prevent linoleum from
being drawn into the mopping nozzle.
- Do not use this appliance to clean carpets. If you move the appliance over a carpet or a rug
when it is switched on, the active protection system is activated. If you move the appliance over
carpet or a rug when it is switched off, wastewater droplets may end up on your carpet or rug.
- Do not push the appliance over the floor grilles of convector heaters. As the appliance cannot
pick up water that comes out of the nozzle when you move it over the grille, water ends up at
the bottom of the convector pit.
- Do not move the mopping nozzle sideways, as this leaves water traces. Only move the mopping
nozzle forwards and backwards.

Active protection system

This appliance is equipped with an active protection system. This active protection system has been
designed to recognise when a foreign object other than dirt or liquid is picked up from the floor.
When the system is activated, the appliance switches off and the red mopping brushes light lights up
continuously. The active protection system is also activated when the mopping brushes are too wet,
when you move the appliance over a carpet or a rug, or when you move it over flooring that is not
properly affixed.
Tips and other important information
- You can move the appliance just as quickly as a vacuum cleaner. To remove difficult stains, move
the appliance slowly over the stain.
- Switch off the appliance before you pull it over a threshold to prevent water traces on the floor
or water from splashing out of the mopping nozzle.
- After you switch off the appliance, move it forwards and backwards a few times to remove the
liquid that is present between the two mopping brushes. If you fail to do this, the appliance
leaves a trace of water on the floor when you lift it up.
- When you have filled the clean water tank, lock the lever properly. If the lever is not locked
properly, the clean water tank may fall out when you release the appliance from its parking
position.
