Maintenance and care

￿Turn off and unplug the vacuum cleaner before performing any maintenance work.

The Miele filter system consists of the following three components.

–Dustbag

–Exhaust filter

–Dust compartment filter

Each of these components must be changed periodically to maintain the vacuum cleaner’s efficiency.

Only use Miele dustbags, filters and accessories with the "Original Miele" logo. Only then can the suction power of the vacuum cleaner reach its optimum potential creating the best possible cleaning results.
