IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The vacuum cleaner shuts off auto- matically by thermostatic control if it overheats. Overheating could be due
to a clogged hose, a heavily soiled dust compartment or exhaust filter, or a full dustbag. If this occurs, clear the prob- lem and wait about 20 - 30 minutes for the motor to cool down. The vacuum cleaner can then be turned on again.
Do not turn on or attempt to oper- ate the vacuum cleaner unless a dustbag, dust compartment filter and
exhaust filter are in place. Use only genuine MIELE
DO NOT USE FORCE!
Located on the underside of the vacuum handpiece is a metal inlay
for the prevention of static discharge. To prevent static discharge, your hand must wrap around the metal inlay while vacuuming.
Miele vacuum cleaner bags are disposable and intended to be used only once. Do not attempt to re-
use them.
Clean only with a dry or slightly damp cloth when disconnected
from the power supply. Never immerse in water.
DO NOT USE ON PEOPLE OR ON ANIMALS
Do not attempt any repairs other than those listed under "Mainte- nance". Other repairs should be per-
formed by an Authorized Miele Service Agent.
The manufacturer can not be held re- sponsible for any work performed by an unauthorized service agent.
When disposing of an old vacuum unplug and cut the cable off the
appliance as close as possible. The plug cut from the cord should be ren- dered useless and then disposed of. See the "Disposal of an old vacuum cleaner" section earlier in this booklet for further advice.
