Philips BP300 Vacuum Cleaner User Manual


 
Please read the following operating instructions carefully. They will help
you to get the best performance from this professional quality vacuum
cleaner and to maintain it in optimum condition.
Follow these simple steps for easy and effective
operation of the Backpack vacuum.
Open the lid and ensure that the cloth bag is correctly located and the
flexible ring provides a proper seal when the lid is closed. For optimum
filtration and maximum hygiene, it is advisable to use a paper vacuum
bag in addition to the standard cloth bag.
If you use a paper vacuum bag, simply insert it into the cloth bag, making
sure that the cardboard disk is centered on the flexible sealing ring.
When you replace the lid, the short nozzle in the center of the lid will be
forced into the central hole of the cardboard disk of the paper vacuum
bag thus providing a tight seal. Make sure the paper vacuum bag is tight
-
ly secured over the short nozzle before vacuuming.
Lock the lid down with the two latches. Always ensure that the vacuum
bag is empty before vacuuming. Your Backpack vacuum has been fitted
with a thermal overload switch to protect the motor against damage
should the airflow be blocked for extended periods. This may occur if the
vacuum bag is overfull or if the vacuum hose is blocked. The vacuum
motor will stop before it can get too hot. If this happens, empty and thor-
oughly clean the vacuum bag or free any blockage and ensure that ade-
quate airflow is restored. The motor will automatically restart after it has
cooled to a safe operating temperature.
1. The vacuum hose is fitted into the cuff in the lid. It should not

completely before vacuuming. It is important to maintain the power
cord in good condition.
