Only use the water tank on hard floors with a water-resistant top coat (such as linoleum, enameledtiles and varnished parquet) and stone floors (such as marble). If your floor has not been treated tomake it water-resistant, check with the manufacturer if you can use water to clean it. Do not usethe 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 beingdrawn 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. Onlymove forwards and backwards.Note: The operating time depends on the power level used during cleaning. Mopping pad and wetting strip The appliance comes with one wetting strip and two identical microfiber mopping pads. With thewater tank, wetting strip and microfiber mopping pad attached to the standard floor nozzle, you canclean 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 acapacity 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 watertank 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.

Troubleshooting This chapter summarizes the most common problems you could encounter with the appliance. If you are unable to solve the problem with the information below, visit www.philips.com/support for a list of frequently asked questions or contact the Consumer Care Center in your country.13 English Problem Possible cause Solution The appliance does not work when I push the button. When the battery is empty, '00' flashes on the display. To charge the battery, connect the appliance to the charging base or attach the handheld vacuum cleaner directly to the magnet on the charging base. You have to push the slider forward to switch on the appliance. Push the slider forward to setting 1 to switch on. Increase the suction power further by pushing the slider to setting 2 or select the turbo setting to clean very dirty patches at the highest suction power. The appliance has a lower suction power than usual. The filter and the cyclone are dirty. Clean the filter and the cyclone. The filter light lights up after several hours of use to indicate that you have to wash the sponge filter. Make sure that you wash the sponge filter at least once a month if you use the appliance regularly. You have not attached the dust container lid properly to the dust container. You have not attached the dust container to the appliance properly. In both cases, there will be a loss of suction power. Make sure that you attach the dust container lid to the dust container and the dust container to the appliance properly. Dust escapes from the appliance. The filter is dirty. Clean the filter. The filter is not present in the appliance. Make sure that the filter is in the appliance and assembled correctly. Something blocks the cyclone. Check the cyclone for objects stuck in it and remove any object that blocks the cyclone. If dust falls out of the dust container, the dust container lid is probably not attached properly to the dust container. Empty the dust container and attach the dust container lid correctly. The appliance does not move smoothly across the floor when cleaning a carpet. You selected a too high suction power. Reduce the suction power by choosing setting 1. The brush does not turn anymore. The brush encounters too much resistance. Clean the brush with a pair of scissors or by hand. The brush may stop turning when it encounters too much resistance from high-pile carpet. Switch off the appliance ad then switch it back on again.14 English Problem Possible cause Solution You have not installed the roller brush in the nozzle properly after cleaning. Follow the instructions in the cleaning chapter of the user manual to slide the roller brush into the nozzle properly and secure it inside the nozzle by snapping home the locking lever. The LEDs in the nozzle do not come on. You have not attached the nozzle to the appliance or handheld properly. Attach the nozzle to the appliance or handheld properly. The appliance is not charging. The magnetic connector is not not connected correctly to the charging disk or the adapter is not inserted into the wall socket properly. Make sure that the magnetic connector is connected properly to the charging disk and that the adapter is inserted into the wall socket properly. You have not connected the correct adapter and cord. Make sure that you use the correct adapter and cord. If you have checked the above and the appliance still does not charge, take it to a Philips service center or contact the Consumer Care Center. FC6904, FC6902: The mini turbo brush does not function properly. The roller brush is blocked. Remove hairs from the brush with a pair of scissors (see user manual). The roller brush is blocked by fabric or surfaces during cleaning. Keep the mini turbo brush aligned with the surface and do not push the turbo brush into soft surfaces. The mini turbo brush is not fully closed. Make sure that the top and bottom parts of the mini turbo brush are properly connected and there is no gap between the two parts. Check if the locking ring is in closed position (see user manual). When I use my vacuum cleaner I sometimes feel static electricity shocks. Your vacuum cleaner builds up static electricity. The lower the air humidity, the more static electricity the appliance builds up. Discharge the appliance by frequently holding the tube against other metal objects in the room (for example the legs of a table or chair, etc.). You can also raise the air humidity level in the room. The water flow from the water tank is reduced. The wetting strip is blocked by excessive residue. Remove the wetting strip and clean it. The microfiber mopping pad is not placed correctly and blocks the wetting strip as a result. This prevents water from flowing out of the wetting strip. Make sure that you place the mopping pad correctly. Check the user manual for proper placement.15 English Problem Possible cause Solution The water tank is empty or nearly empty. Refill the water tank. You use a microfiber mopping pad that is not supplied by Philips. Only use an original Philips microfiber mopping pad. You can buy these mopping pads in the online Philips shop at www.shop.philips.com/service or at your Philips dealer. The output of water is faster and larger than normal. If the water tank produces an uncontrolled and too large amount of water, the cap of the tank is probably not closed properly. Check the cap and make sure it is fully and properly closed. The strip is not placed properly in the bottom of the water tank. Check the strip and make sure that it is fitted properly in the bottom plate of the water tank. The floor dries with stripes when I use the water tank. You added too much liquid cleaner to the water. Use only a few drops or use a cleaner that foams less. Error codes Error code Meaning E1 The appliance is stored or charged at a temperature below 5°C. Move the appliance to a warmer room. Do not store or charge the appliance at a temperature below 5°C or above 40°C. E4 The roller brush in the motorized floor nozzle or in the mini turbo brush has become blocked and cannot turn freely. Switch off the appliance and check the roller brush for obstructions. E6 No current passes through the adapter.Check if the adapter is inserted into the wall socket properly. If the adapter is inserted properly and the charging disk (magnet) is attached properly and the appliance does not start to charge, the adapter may be defective. In that case, please contact the Consumer Care Center or take the appliance to an authorized Philips service center. E7 You use the wrong adapter. Connect the correct adapter. If the correct adapter does not work, please contact the Consumer Care Center or take the appliance to an authorized Philips service center.
