• To enable recycling, the plastics of
the product have been coded.
• The cardboard packaging has
been made of recycled material
and is entirely suitable for recycling.
Important
• Before using for the first time, check if
the dustbag is placed correctly.
• Never suck up water (or any other
liquid). Never pick up ashes until they
are cold.
• In the hand grip, in the hose and in the
electric power brush are electrical
conductors.
To prevent disfunctioning:
- Do not clean these items with water.
- Do not vacuum in sharp objects.
- Regularly check the hose and the hand
grip for damage.
- Replace a damaged hose or hand grip
immediately.
• If the electric power brush is damaged
take it to a Philips autorised service dealer
for repair without delay.
• Always remove the mains plug from the
wall socket before cleaning the appliance.
• Never touch the roller brush inside the
electric power brush when this accessory
is switched on.
• Never obstruct the vents at the top side of
the electric power brush.
• When picking up fine dust, the pores of
the dustbag may become clogged. This
will obstruct the air passage.
Subsequently, the dustbag needs
replacement, although the bag might be
far from full.
• Only use this vacuum cleaner with the
special double-sided non-chlorine paper
dustbags type Philips Oslo+or Oslo
+
Hygiene (closeable).
• Never use the vacuum cleaner without
the motor protection filter and/or the
dustbag!
• New carpets, and also carpets which
have never been cleaned with an electric
power nozzle before, contain much fluff
and loose hairs. It is normal that these
are removed by the electric power
nozzle.
f
Getting the vacuum cleaner ready for use:
• Connecting the hose: press firmly ("Click!")
(fig. 1a).
- To disconnect: press the knob and pull the
hose out of the vacuum cleaner (fig. 1b).
• Connecting the nozzle, the tube and the
handle: insert the narrowed section into the
wider section (“Click!”) (fig. 2).
- To disconnect: pull the knob.
• Nozzles:
- Power brush nozzle, with motor driven rotary
brush for the very best in-depth cleaning of
carpets, rugs, etc.(fig. 3).
To remove: move the slide downwards (fig. 4).
- Hard floor nozzle (fig. 22).
- Small nozzle, brush nozzle and crevice
nozzle. These can be found in the special
storage compartment (fig. 5-9);
• Pull the mains plug out of the vacuum cleaner
(fig. 10) and insert into the wall socket.
• Press the on/off switch (I) (fig. 11).
Pilot light “STAND BY” comes on.
• The remote control enables you to adjust
suction power from the hand grip (fig. 12).
MAX = maximum suction power.
STAND BY = appliance is in rest position (i.e.
switched on, but not activated).
- Move the slide towards MAX until the desired
suction power is obtained.
Medium suction power is advisable for
general use. (See also the section on the
Philips “Turbomax” motor.)
Minimum suction power is advisable for
dusting using the brush nozzle and for cleaning
curtains, cloths, etc.
Maximum suction power is advisable for
cleaning very dirty carpets and hard floors.
Philips “Turbomax” motor
Your vacuum cleaner is equipped with the
very powerful Philips “Turbomax” motor.
As long as the dustbag is more or less
empty, medium suction power will be quite
enough for general use. This saves
energy and makes vacuuming easy.
As the dustbag becomes more and more
full, you can select higher suction power.
This ensures that the dustbag will be filled
entirely.
Power brush nozzle
• For optimum effectivity, we advise to use the
electric power nozzle in the switched-on mode
on carpet only.
• Preferably use medium suction power.
This is sufficient for optimum vacuuming.
As the dustbag becomes more and more full,
the suction power will decrease. Then slide the
control farther towards MAX until the desired
suction power is obtained again.
• Extremely deep pile carpets (deeper than 3 cm)
and long fringes (longer than 4 cm) cannot be
cleaned with the electric power brush as the
threads could wind around the brush roller and
get stuck.
When vacuuming shorter fringes, move the
nozzle only towards the ends of the threads.
• Do not attempt to pick up damp or coarse
debris, as this may cause obstruction.
How to use:
- Switching on: fig. 13. Slide the knob in the
hand grip forwards. The green pilot light on top
of the electric power brush comes on (fig. 14).
- Move the brush nozzle slowly forward and
backward over the carpet (fig. 15-16).
- Switching off: fig. 17. The green pilot light
goes out.
Red pilot light? Switch off!
The red pilot light indicates that the electric power
brush is blocked (fig. 18).
For safety the motor of the brush nozzle switches
off automatically.
When this happens:
- Switch off the electric power brush by sliding
the knob in the hand grip backwards (fig. 19).
The red pilot light goes out.
- Remove the electric power brush from the tube
(fig. 4).
- Press the release button to remove the brush
roller (fig. 20).
- Remove the cause of the obstruction (stuck
object, long hairs or threads, etc.).
- Replace the brush roller (“Click!”) (fig. 21).
- About 1⁄2 minute after switching off the electric
power brush you can use this nozzle again.
• For replacement, you can order new roller
brushes from your dealer under type nr.
HR 6991 or service nr. 4822 479 20203.
• Regularly vacuum the vents at the top side of
the electric power brush. (E.g. everytime when
you replace the dustbag.)
Hard floor nozzle
This nozzle is especially advisable for large
surfaces of parquet, tiles, etc. (fig. 22).
Insufficient suction power?
Please check:
- if the control on the hand grip is in the required
position;
- if the dustbag is full;
- if the nozzle, tube or hose is blocked up.
To remove the obstruction, disconnect the
blocked-up item and connect it (as far as
possible) in adverse position. Then the air will
stream through the item in opposite direction.
Park
If you wish to interrupt vacuum cleaning, you can
place the tube clip into the rest (fig. 23).
You can slide the clip along the tube to change
the height.
In one movement the tube is parked in a
convenient position (fig. 24).
Storage
- Switch the vacuum cleaner off (fig. 25).
- Remove the mains plug from the wall socket.
- Rewind the mains cord by pressing the
cordwinder pedal (i) (fig. 26).
- Hitch the lower tube onto the vacuum cleaner
(fig. 27-28). You can slide the clip along the
tube to change the height.
Replacing the dustbag

Philips dustbags types Oslo+ (type nº.

- Remove the full dustbag from the cassette by
pulling the cardboard tag (fig. 33).
This automatically closes the dustbag (type
Oslo+Hygiene).
- Discard the full dustbag.
- Slide the cardboard front plate of the new
dustbag into the two slots of the cassette as far
as possible (fig. 34-35).
- Position the cassette and the new dustbag in
the vacuum cleaner (fig. 36).
- Bend the rear part of the dustbag downwards.
- Close the cover ("Click!") (fig. 37).
Note: If no dustbag has been placed into the
cassette, the cover cannot be closed.
- Never switch the appliance on when the
dustbag cassette is not placed.
Replacing the motor protection filter
After having removed the full dustbag, you can
see the removable holder with the motor
protection filter.
Replace the motor protection filter when placing
the first of a new set of dustbags.
You can take the holder to the dustbin and shake
the filter out there. Hygienic: you need not touch
the filter.
Position the new filter with the white side towards
the dustbag (fig. 38-40).
Press the holder with the new filter firmly into
place to ensure that it fits in correctly at the
bottom.
S-Class filter
This revolutionary S-Class filter was especially
designed for Philips Vision vacuum cleaners.
The S-Class filter is capable of removing from the
outlet air at least 99.97% of all the particles
measuring 0.0003 mm and more.
This includes not only normal domestic dust, but
also harmful microscopic vermin such as
glycyphagii and their excrements.
These are known as causes of bronchial
allergies.
• To guarantee optimum air filtering, the S-Class
filter needs replacement at least once a year.
• For replacement, single S-Class filters are
available from your dealer under type
n°. HR 6992 or service n°. 4822 480 10084.
How to replace the S-Class filter
- Open the filter holder (fig. 41).
- Remove the old filter (fig. 42).
- Place the new filter as indicated in fig. 43-45.
Replacing the mains cord
If the mains cord of this appliance is damaged, it
must only be replaced by Philips or their service
representative, as special tools and/or parts are
required.

One new motor protection filter is supplied with
each set of original Philips dustbags Oslo+or
Oslo+Hygiene (closeable).
