Maintenance and care
Replacing the exhaust filter
Depending on the model, the vacuum cleaner will be equipped with one of the following exhaust filters:
a "Air Clean" filter
b "Active Air Clean" filter c "Active HEPA" filter
"Air Clean" filter
A "Air Clean" filter is supplied with every box of Miele dustbags. It should be replaced each time a new box of bags is started.
"Active Air Clean" or the "Active HEPA" filter
An "Active Air Clean" or "Active HEPA" filter should be changed approximately once a year. Change the filter sooner if it is obviously soiled or no longer effective.
It is helpful to make a note of the date directly on the filter as a reminder for when to next change it. See "Optional Accessories" for filter descriptions.
