Replacement
Replacing the filter
Replace the EPA filter if it is very dirty or damaged (see 'Emptying and cleaning the dust container'). To
obtain a new EPA filter, go to www.philips.com/support.
Replacing the rechargeable battery
The rechargeable battery of the robot may only be replaced by qualified service engineers. Take the
robot to an authorized Philips service center to have the battery replaced when you can no longer
recharge it or when it runs out of power quickly. You can find the contact details of the Philips
Consumer Care Center in your country in the international warranty leaflet.
Replacing the side brushes
Replace the side brushes after some time to ensure proper cleaning results.
Note: Always replace the side brushes when you notice signs of wear or damage. We also recommend
that you replace both side brushes at the same time. To obtain new side brushes, go to
www.philips.com/support.
1 To replace the side brushes, grab the old side brushes by the bristles and pull them off their shafts.
2 Push the new side brushes onto the shafts.
Replacing the batteries of the remote control
1 Push the tab (1) to unlock the battery compartment lid (2) and remove the battery compartment lid
(Fig. 9).
2 Remove the empty AAA batteries from the battery compartment.
3 Insert two new AAA batteries (Fig. 10).
Note: Make sure the + and - poles point in the right direction.
4 To reattach the battery compartment lid, first insert the lug into the opening in the rim of the
compartment (1) and then push down the lid (2) until it locks with a click (Fig. 11). Now the remote
control is ready for use.
Note: Dispose of empty disposable batteries according to the local rules in your country.
