Miele 217-3, 217-2, 213-2 Operation, Turning on the Powerbrush, Using the Powerbrush

Operation

The Powerbrush is recommended for cleaning and restoring crushed carpet pile on most types of carpets.

For cleaning non-carpeted floors, the use of the SBD 265, SBD 285,

SBD 350, SBD 450 or SBD 550 Combination Floor Tool or the SBB 235 Smooth Floor Brush is recommended.

When vacuuming rug fringes, place the Powerbrush on the rug and pull it over the fringe onto the floor. Never push the Powerbrush over fringes, as they may become entangled in the brush roller.

For suggestions and recommendations on which type of Powerbrush or floor tool will work best for your application, please contact your Miele Vacuum Dealer.
