To disconnect: pull the narrow section out of
the wider section while turning it a little.
- To adjust the telescopic tube to the
required length: grasp the plastic ring and
pull out the upper tube as far as necessary
(fig. 5). Lock the telescopic tube in position
by releasing the plastic ring. This applies to
specific types only.
Nozzles:
- Combi nozzle. This nozzle is convertible
for use on either carpets (without brush,
fig. 6) or hard floors (with brush, fig. 7);
- Small nozzle, brush nozzle and crevice
nozzle. These can be found in the special
storage compartment (fig. 8-11);
- Adjusting the suction power: (fig.12-13).
Insufficient suction power?
Please check:
- if the slide on the vacuum cleaner is in the
required position;
- if the control at the hand grip is in “open”
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. 14).
You can slide the clip along the tube to change
the height.
In one movement the tube is parked in a
convenient position (fig. 15).
Storage
- Switch the vacuum cleaner off.
- Remove the mains plug from the wall socket.
- Rewind the mains cord by pressing the
cordwinder pedal (i).
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.
• 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.
• Never use the vacuum cleaner
without the motor protection filter.
This could damage the motor and
shorten the life of your vacuum
cleaner.
• Only use Philips s-bag™ double-layer
paper dustbags (FC8021) or Philips
Sydney+ double-layer paper dustbags
(type HR6999 Sydney+).
• 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.
English
Please note that * in the illustration numbers
means: this illustration applies to special models
only.
How to use
- Connecting the hose: push in and rotate
clockwise (fig. 1, 2).
- To disconnect: rotate anti-clockwise (fig. 3).
- To connect the nozzle, the telescopic tube
and the handgrip: insert the narrowed section
into the wider section while turning it a little
(fig. 4).
5
- Hitch the lower tube onto the vacuum
cleaner (fig. 16-17). You can slide the clip
along the tube to change the height.
Replacing the dustbag
Replace the dustbag as soon as the “dustbag full
indicator” becomes red, even when the nozzle is
not placed on a surface (fig. 18).
- Switch the vacuum cleaner off.
- Open the cover (fig. 19).
- Push the dustbag holder backwards (fig. 20).
- Remove the full dustbag by pulling the
cardboard tag (fig. 21).
This automatically closes the dustbag.
- Slide the cardboard front plate of the new
dustbag into the two slots of the dustbag
holder as far as possible (fig. 22).
- Push the dustbag holder forwards (“Click!”)
(fig. 23).
Note that it is not possible to close the cover
when no dustbag has been placed.
Philips s-bag™ paper dustbags are available
under type number FC 8021.
The motor protection filter
Your appliance has been equipped with a greatly
improved, triple permanent motor protection filter.
This filter ensures an optimal protection of the
motor. This filter does not need to be replaced.
This means that you can simply throw away the
replacement filter that is supplied with the
dustbags, since this filter is only required for
older versions of this vacuum cleaner.
All you have to do is shake out the permanent
filter and reinsert it into the vacuum cleaner
every time you put in a new dustbag (fig. 24-26).
- Position the filter in the holder as it was
previously placed and press it firmly.
- Push the holder with the clean filter into its
place so that the filter fits correctly at the
bottom.
Replacing the AFS-Micro filter (not in all
models)
The AFS-Micro filter will filter through its
electrostatically charged fibres a large part of the
smallest particles of the exhaust air.
Change the AFS-Micro filter when you place
the first of a new set of dustbags.
- Position the lower edge and sides of the new
filter properly behind the ridges of the holder
(fig. 27).
- When closing the holder, ensure that the
filter fits in completely (fig. 28).
S-Class filter (not in all models)
Instead of the AFS-Micro filter, some vacuum
cleaners are equipped with a revolutionary S-Class
filter. 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.
Replacing the S-Class filter
- Open the filter holder (fig. 29).
- Remove the old filter (fig. 30).
- Place the S-Class filter in the filter holder
(fig. 31).
- Put the S-Class filter holder in the appliance
with the lever pointing upwards (fig. 32-33).
- Close the filter holder and push the lever
down (fig. 34).

Extra accessories
To enable you have even better profit from
your Philips Mobilo Plus vacuum cleaner, some
extra accessories are available from your dealer:
Turbo nozzle HR 6988
This turbo nozzle has been especially designed
for enhanced cleaning of rugs and carpets.
The rotating brush effortlessly picks up small
threads, hairs, fluff and more difficult to vacuum
particles.
Good in-depth cleaning is guaranteed with the
turbo nozzle.
Hard floor nozzle HR 6943
This nozzle is especially advisable for large
surfaces of parquet, tiles, etc.
In case you have any difficulties obtaining dustbags,
filters or other accessories for this vacuum cleaner,
please contact the consumer relations desk in your
country.
For phone numbers please refer to the guarantee
card.
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.
