Troubleshooting

Heater won't turn on or respond.
  1. Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet. 2. Check if the power outlet itself is functioning (try plugging in another device). 3. Verify that the heater's main power switch is in the 'On' position. 4. If an automatic safety cut-off was triggered (e.g., tip-over), unplug the heater for 30 minutes, then plug it back in.
Heater is on but not warming the room effectively.
  1. Check the set temperature in the app or on the device; ensure it's higher than the current room temperature. 2. Confirm the heater is set to an appropriate power level (e.g., 2000W for faster heating). 3. Ensure the room size does not exceed 20 m². 4. Make sure the air inlet and outlet vents are not obstructed by furniture, curtains, or dust. 5. Allow sufficient time for the room to warm up, especially in very cold conditions.
Air+ app cannot connect to the heater or control it.
  1. Ensure your smartphone's Wi-Fi is enabled and connected to the same 2.4 GHz network as the heater. 2. Restart the Philips Air+ app on your phone. 3. Unplug the heater for 10 seconds and then plug it back in to restart its Wi-Fi module. 4. If issues persist, try re-pairing the heater with the app following the initial setup instructions. 5. Check if your home Wi-Fi network is stable and within range of the heater.
Heater produces an unusual odor during initial use.

It is normal for new ceramic heaters to emit a slight, harmless odor during the first few uses as manufacturing residues burn off. Ensure good ventilation in the room. The odor should dissipate quickly after a few hours of operation.
