tiles and varnished parquet) and stone floors (such as marble). If your floor has not been treated to
make it water-resistant, check with the manufacturer if you can use water to clean it. Do not use

-Only use the water tank on linoleum floors that are properly affixed to prevent linoleum from being
drawn into the mopping nozzle.
-Do not use the water tank to clean carpets.

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 a
capacity of 200ml, you only have to add a few drops of liquid floor cleaner to the water.
Cleaning the water tank

tank and close the cap. Shake the water tank and put the water tank on a water-resistant surface.

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.
Problem Possible cause Solution
The appliance does not
work when I push the
button.
The battery light flashes fast
because the batteries are
low.
To charge the batteries, insert the small
plug into the socket on the appliance
and insert the adapter into a wall socket.
You cannot use the
appliance because the
appliance is still charging.
You have to remove the small plug from
the socket on the appliance before you
can switch on the appliance.
You have to press two
buttons.
First press the on/off button to switch
on the appliance. Then press the MAX
button to get maximum suction power.
The appliance has a lower
suction power than usual.
The filter and the cyclone are
dirty.
Clean the filter and the cyclone.
You have not connected the
dust bucket, the dust
separator and the cyclone
properly. Incorrect assembly
of these parts causes air
leakage, which leads to loss
of suction power.
Connect the dust bucket, the dust
separator and the cyclone properly.
Dust escapes from the
appliance.
The filter is dirty. Clean the filter.
The brush does not turn
anymore.
The brush encounters too
much resistance.
Clean the brush with a pair of scissors or
by hand. If you clean the roller brush by
hand, pull the hairs or threads from the
widest side to the narrowest side of the
roller brush (see user manual).
You switched on the
appliance by pressing the on
button on the handheld
vacuum cleaner.
Switch off the appliance by pressing the
on button on the handheld vacuum
cleaner again. Then switch it on again by
pressing the on button on the stick.

Problem Possible cause Solution
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. It
covers the wetting strip and
blocks the water flow from
the wetting strip.
Make sure that the Velcro strips on the
mopping pad and the Velcro strips on
the water tank are perfectly aligned. Also
make sure the striped side of the
mopping pad is facing outwards, away
from the bottom of the water tank.
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 n 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.
FC6409: 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).
The connector between the
mini turbo brush and the
appliance is not placed
properly.
Make sure that the connector is pushed
into the mini turbo brush as far as it
goes.

the mini turbo brush to the
appliance.
The connector between the
